Maintenance and Care

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Novogratz Concord Turntable Stand, follow these care guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe the surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or polishes that may damage the finish.
• Spills: Immediately wipe up any spills to prevent moisture damage or staining.
• Sunlight Exposure: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, which can cause fading or discoloration of the woodgrain finish.
• Heat and Moisture: Keep the stand away from direct heat sources and areas of high humidity.
• Regular Checks: Periodically check all fasteners and re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your turntable stand, consider the following common solutions:

• Stand is Wobbly: Ensure all assembly fasteners are securely tightened. Check that the stand is placed on a level surface. Adjust the feet if applicable (this model does not specify adjustable feet, so assume level surface is key).
• Drawers Do Not Slide Smoothly: Verify that the drawer slides are correctly installed and aligned according to the assembly instructions. Ensure no obstructions are in the drawer tracks. Check that the drawers are not overloaded beyond their 15 lbs capacity.
• Missing Parts: If you discover missing parts during assembly, refer to the parts list in your manual and contact Novogratz customer support for assistance.
• Surface Damage: For minor scratches or blemishes, touch-up pens or furniture markers matching the brown oak finish may be used. For significant damage, contact customer support.
