Using the Drawers
- Smooth Operation: The drawers are equipped with ball-bearing slides for smooth and quiet opening and closing.

- File Organization: The large bottom drawer includes adjustable bars to accommodate A4-sized hanging file folders (folders not included). Adjust the width of the bars to fit your documents.
Using the Wheels
- Mobility: The cabinet is fitted with four 360° swivel wheels for easy movement across various floor surfaces.

5. Care and Maintenance
Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your filing cabinet.
- Cleaning: Wipe the surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the finish.
- Spills: Immediately wipe up any spills to prevent moisture damage to the MDF.
- Protection: The cabinet's surface is treated for water and scratch resistance. However, avoid placing extremely hot or sharp objects directly on the surface without protection.
- Hardware: Periodically check all screws and fasteners to ensure they are tight. Retighten if necessary.
