1. Unpacking: Carefully remove the trolley from its packaging. Inspect for any shipping damage. Report any damage to your retailer immediately.
2. Wheel Installation (if required): The wheels are typically pre-installed. If not, attach the four wheels to the designated mounting points at the bottom of the trolley. Ensure all bolts are tightened securely.
3. Positioning: Move the trolley to your desired location. Use the soft-grip handles for easier maneuvering.
4. Engage Wheel Locks: Once positioned, press down on the levers of the locking wheels to secure the trolley in place. This prevents accidental movement during use.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Using the Drawers

The trolley features 7 smooth-running drawers. To open a drawer, gently pull the handle. To close, push the drawer firmly until it clicks into place. Ensure drawers are fully closed before moving the trolley.

Important: For stability, avoid opening more than one drawer at a time, especially the upper drawers when they are heavily loaded. This can shift the center of gravity and cause the trolley to tip.

5.2 Utilizing the Tool Set

The TW1000 comes with a comprehensive 263-piece tool set, organized in foam inserts within the drawers. Each tool has a designated spot for easy identification and retrieval.

5.4 Locking the Trolley

The trolley is equipped with a key lock to secure your tools. Insert the key into the lock mechanism, turn it to the locked position, and remove the key. Ensure all drawers are fully closed before locking.
