Setup and Installation
The Blomus MODO Wall Shelf is designed for wall-mounted installation. Follow these steps carefully:
- Choose Location: Select a suitable wall location, ensuring it is free from electrical wires, plumbing, or other obstructions. Consider the desired height and accessibility.
- Mark Drilling Points: Hold the shelf against the wall at the desired position. Use a pencil to mark the drilling points through the mounting holes on the shelf. Use a level to ensure the marks are perfectly horizontal.
- Drill Holes: Using an appropriate drill bit for your wall type (e.g., masonry bit for concrete, wood bit for studs), drill holes at the marked points. The depth and diameter of the holes should match the provided wall anchors.
- Insert Wall Anchors: Gently tap the wall anchors into the drilled holes until they are flush with the wall surface.
- Mount Shelf: Align the shelf's mounting holes with the installed wall anchors. Insert the provided screws through the shelf and into the anchors. Tighten the screws firmly but do not overtighten, as this can damage the wall or shelf.
- Verify Stability: Once mounted, gently pull on the shelf to ensure it is securely fastened to the wall and does not wobble.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Shelf feels loose or wobbly after installation. | Screws are not tightened sufficiently, or wall anchors are not properly seated. | Carefully re-tighten screws. If the problem persists, remove the shelf, inspect wall anchors, and re-install if necessary. Ensure correct drill bit size was used. |
