- Ensure the lid is fully closed before sitting on the bench.
- Distribute weight evenly across the surface.
- Do not exceed the maximum load capacity of 220 lbs.
6. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your HOOBRO Storage Chest, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or excessive moisture, as these can damage the particleboard and PVC finish.
- Spills: Clean up spills immediately to prevent staining or damage to the material.
- Dusting: Regularly dust the surface with a dry, soft cloth.
- Hardware: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Tighten if necessary.
