Introduction

This manual provides essential information for the safe and effective use of your HON Mobile Pedestal. Please read these instructions thoroughly before operating the unit and retain them for future reference. This mobile pedestal is designed for organized storage of documents and office supplies, featuring multiple drawers and a locking mechanism for security.

This image displays the HON Mobile Pedestal, a light gray, three-drawer filing cabinet. It features two smaller box drawers at the top and one larger file drawer at the bottom, suitable for legal or letter-sized documents. A security lock is visible on the top right of the unit, designed to secure all drawers. The pedestal is equipped with casters for mobility, though they are not visible in this specific view. The overall design is functional and suitable for office environments.

Safety Information

Potential hazards from the security lock require caution during use. Ensure proper floor mounting to prevent tipping or instability.

• Always ensure the pedestal is placed on a level and stable surface.
• Do not overload drawers, as this can affect stability and drawer operation.
• When moving the pedestal, ensure all drawers are closed and locked to prevent accidental opening and potential tipping.
• Keep fingers clear of drawer slides when opening or closing drawers.

Setup

The HON Mobile Pedestal is shipped fully assembled and does not require additional assembly. It is designed for pedestal installation and features casters for mobility.

1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the pedestal from its packaging. Inspect for any shipping damage.
2. Placement: Position the mobile pedestal in your desired location. Ensure the floor surface is level and clear of obstructions to allow for smooth movement of the casters.
3. Stability Check: Gently push and pull the unit to confirm it is stable and does not wobble. If the unit feels unstable, reposition it on a more even surface.

Operating Instructions

Drawer Operation

The pedestal features two box drawers and one file drawer, equipped with ball-bearing suspensions for smooth operation.

• Opening Drawers: Gently pull the drawer handle to open. The ball-bearing suspension allows for full extension.
• Closing Drawers: Push the drawer firmly until it is fully closed and latched.
• File Drawer: The bottom drawer is designed to accommodate legal and letter-sized documents. Ensure files are properly aligned to prevent jamming.

Locking Mechanism

The pedestal is equipped with a security lock to secure all drawers simultaneously.

1. To Lock: Ensure all drawers are fully closed. Insert the key into the lock cylinder located on the top right of the unit. Turn the key clockwise to engage the locking mechanism. Remove the key.
2. To Unlock: Insert the key into the lock cylinder. Turn the key counter-clockwise to disengage the locking mechanism. The drawers can now be opened.
3. Key Management: Keep spare keys in a secure location separate from the pedestal.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your mobile pedestal.

• Cleaning: Wipe the exterior surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the painted finish.
• Drawer Slides: Periodically check drawer slides for smooth operation. If a drawer becomes stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the slides.
• Casters: Keep casters free of debris (e.g., hair, dust) to ensure smooth mobility. Clean them as needed.
• Lock: If the lock mechanism becomes stiff, a small amount of graphite lubricant can be applied to the keyhole. Do not force the key.
