Safety Information

Please observe the following safety guidelines to prevent injury and damage to the equipment stand:

• Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity of 700 lbs for the top shelf and 540 lbs for the undershelf. Distribute weight evenly.
• Ensure all casters are locked when the stand needs to remain stationary to prevent accidental movement.
• Avoid placing hot items directly on the stainless steel surface without adequate protection.
• Keep children and pets away from the stand during assembly and operation.
• Regularly inspect the stand for any loose components or damage. Do not use if damaged.

Setup and Assembly

The KPS Stainless Steel Rolling Equipment Stand is designed for minimal assembly. While the main frame is largely pre-assembled, the casters and undershelf require attachment and adjustment.

Required Tools:

• Adjustable wrench or appropriate sized spanner for casters.

Assembly Steps:

1. Attach Casters: Carefully turn the stand upside down. Insert the stem of each caster into the designated holes at the bottom of each leg. Secure them by tightening the nuts with an adjustable wrench. Ensure casters with brakes are positioned on the same side for easier access.
2. Adjust Undershelf: Turn the stand upright. The undershelf can be adjusted to your desired height. Loosen the screws or clips securing the undershelf to the legs, slide the shelf to the preferred position, and then securely tighten the fasteners. Ensure the shelf is level.
3. Final Inspection: Verify that all components are securely fastened and the stand is stable.

Loading the Stand:

Maintenance and Care

Cleaning Stainless Steel Surfaces:

• Wipe down stainless steel surfaces regularly with a soft cloth and mild detergent or a specialized stainless steel cleaner.
• Always wipe in the direction of the grain to prevent streaks and scratches.
• Avoid abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
• For stubborn stains, a paste of baking soda and water can be used, followed by thorough rinsing and drying.

Caster Maintenance:

• Periodically check casters for debris (hair, lint, etc.) and clean as needed to ensure smooth rolling.
• Ensure caster brakes are functioning correctly.

General Inspection:
