Parts List

Before assembly, verify that all components are present and undamaged. Refer to the included hardware pack for specific quantities.

Assembly Instructions (Setup)

Assembly typically requires two adults. Lay out all parts on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratching. Follow the numbered steps in your detailed assembly guide provided with the product. Below are general steps and key considerations:

Step 1: Attach Cam Dowels and Cam Screws

Insert cam dowels into pre-drilled holes on the edges of panels. Ensure they are fully seated. Screw cam screws into the corresponding panels. Do not overtighten.

Step 2: Connect Panels

Align panels with cam dowels and cam screws. Insert the cam dowels into the cam lock holes. Ensure the arrow on the cam lock points towards the edge of the board where the cam dowel is inserted.

Step 3: Secure Cam Locks

Using a Phillips head screwdriver, turn the cam locks approximately 210 degrees clockwise to secure the panels together. The cam lock should firmly grip the cam dowel, creating a strong joint.

Step 4: Install Back Panel

Carefully attach the back panel using the provided small nails or screws. Ensure the cabinet frame is square before securing the back panel, as this adds significant stability.

Step 5: Attach Doors and Hardware

Mount the door hinges to the cabinet frame and then attach the doors. Adjust hinges as needed to ensure doors are level and close properly. Install the door handles.

Operating Instructions

Your Sauder Select Storage Cabinet is designed for straightforward use.

• Opening/Closing Doors: Gently pull the handles to open the doors. Push the doors firmly until the magnetic closures engage to ensure they remain shut.
• Adjusting Shelves: To adjust the height of the adjustable shelves, remove all items from the shelf. Lift the shelf off its pins. Remove the shelf pins and reinsert them into the desired set of holes. Carefully place the shelf back onto the pins, ensuring it is level and secure.
• Weight Capacity: Adhere to the recommended weight limits for each shelf to prevent damage or instability. The upper shelves have a limit of 25 lbs, and the bottom shelf has a limit of 50 lbs.

Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life of your cabinet.

• Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the finish.
• Spills: Clean up spills immediately to prevent moisture damage to the engineered wood.
• Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws and cam locks to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary to maintain stability.
