Operating Instructions

The TOPWAY Mobile Base is designed for simple and safe operation:

• Moving the Appliance: To move your appliance, first ensure that the path is clear of obstacles. Disengage the locking brakes on all wheels. Gently push or pull the appliance to its new desired location.
• Securing the Appliance: Once the appliance is in its new position, immediately engage the locking brakes on all wheels to prevent any accidental movement, especially during operation of appliances like washing machines or dryers.
• Adjusting Size (without appliance): If you need to adjust the size of the base for a different appliance, first remove the current appliance. Then, disengage the locking buckles, adjust the telescopic tubes to the new dimensions, and re-secure the buckles.
• Weight Capacity: Do not exceed the maximum load capacity of 300 kg (660 lbs). Overloading can damage the base and lead to instability.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your mobile base:

• Cleaning: Wipe down the base periodically with a damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the ABS plastic or chrome finish.
• Wheel Inspection: Regularly check the wheels for any signs of wear, damage, or accumulation of hair/debris that might hinder smooth movement. Clean the wheels as needed.
• Locking Mechanism Check: Periodically test the locking brakes on the wheels to ensure they engage and disengage properly.
• Structural Integrity: Inspect the chrome-plated steel tubes and ABS corner pieces for any cracks, bends, or loose connections. Tighten any loose parts if possible.

Troubleshooting

Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:

• Base is not moving smoothly:
  • Check if the wheel brakes are engaged. Disengage them.
  • Inspect wheels for obstructions (e.g., hair, lint, small debris). Clean them thoroughly.
  • Ensure the floor surface is clean and free of obstacles.
• Appliance feels unstable on the base:
  • Verify that the appliance is centered and evenly distributed on the four corner platforms.
  • Ensure the base's dimensions are correctly adjusted to the appliance's footprint and that all locking buckles are securely fastened.
  • Check that all wheel brakes are engaged when the appliance is stationary.
  • Confirm the floor surface is level. Use the integrated spirit levels if available, or a separate leveling tool.
• Difficulty adjusting the base size:
  • Ensure all locking buckles or clamps on the telescopic tubes are fully disengaged before attempting to adjust.
  • Clean any dirt or debris from the telescopic tracks that might be causing resistance.
