- Prepare the Area: Clear a spacious, flat, and stable area for assembly.
- Assemble Upright Frames: Connect the vertical steel uprights using the provided connectors. Ensure they are fully seated. The rack can be assembled as a single tall unit or divided into two shorter units.
- Attach Crossbeams: Insert the horizontal crossbeams into the slots on the uprights. Use a rubber mallet to gently tap them into place until they are secure. Ensure all four crossbeams for a single shelf level are installed before placing the MDF board.

- Place MDF Boards: Once the crossbeams for a shelf level are securely in place, lay the MDF board onto the crossbeams. Ensure it sits flush and is supported by the central support ribs.
- Install Feet Caps: Attach the plastic feet caps to the bottom of the uprights to protect your floor and enhance stability.
The rack can be configured as a single 5-tier unit or split into two separate units (e.g., a 3-tier and a 2-tier unit) for versatile use.

- Inspection: Periodically check all connections to ensure they remain secure. Re-tap any loose crossbeams with a rubber mallet if necessary.
- Rust and Scratch Resistance: The rack features a rust and scratch-resistant coating. However, avoid sharp objects or harsh chemicals that could compromise this protection.
- Floor Protection: The vinyl feet caps protect your floors from scratches. Ensure they are always in place.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Rack feels unstable or wobbly. | Connections not fully seated; uneven floor; weight not evenly distributed. | Ensure all crossbeams are fully tapped into the uprights. Move the rack to a level surface or use shims if necessary. Redistribute items evenly across shelves. |
| MDF shelf board does not sit flush. | Crossbeams not properly installed or bent. | Verify that all crossbeams are correctly inserted and fully seated. Check for any bent components and contact support if parts are damaged. |
| Difficulty assembling components. | Components not aligned correctly; lack of force. | Ensure parts are aligned before tapping. Use a rubber mallet to gently but firmly tap components into place. Do not force if alignment is incorrect. |
