5. Setup and Assembly

Assembly is designed to be straightforward. Follow these steps:

1. Unpack all components and verify against the package contents list.
2. Assemble the metal frame by connecting the rods using the provided spring pins and screws. Ensure all connections are firm.
3. Attach the four heavy-duty wheels to the bottom of the frame. Two of these wheels are lockable; ensure they are positioned for easy access.
4. Hang the four polyester laundry bags onto the top horizontal bars of the frame using their integrated hooks.
5. Ensure the bottom horizontal bars support the base of each bag to prevent sagging when loaded.

The frame features six horizontal bars for enhanced stability and load-bearing capacity, preventing bags from sagging.

This comparison highlights the structural advantage of the 6-bar design for increased stability.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1. Sorting Laundry

Utilize the four individual sections to pre-sort your laundry. Common sorting categories include:

• Whites
• Lights
• Colors
• Darks

This image provides examples of how to categorize your laundry using the four sections.

6.2. Removing and Re-attaching Bags

Each laundry bag is designed for individual removal. Simply lift the bag by its two metal handles to detach it from the frame. This allows for convenient transport of sorted laundry to your washing machine. To re-attach, align the hooks with the top bar and lower the bag into place, ensuring the bottom rests on the support bar.

This visual guide shows the ease of removing and using the bags separately.

6.3. Using Wheels and Locks

The sorter is equipped with four heavy-duty rolling wheels for easy mobility. Two of these wheels feature a locking mechanism. To move the sorter, ensure the locks are disengaged. To secure the sorter in a stationary position, press down on the locking levers on the two designated wheels.

7. Maintenance

7.1. Cleaning the Laundry Bags

The portable laundry bags are made of eco-friendly polyester canvas with an inner waterproof coating. To clean, simply wipe with a damp cloth. Do not machine wash or tumble dry the bags, as this may damage the waterproof lining.

7.2. Cleaning the Frame

Wipe the metal frame with a soft, damp cloth as needed. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.

8. Troubleshooting

• Sags or Instability: Ensure all frame connections are tightly secured. Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity per bag (25 lbs).
• Wheels Not Rolling Smoothly: Check for debris caught in the wheels. Ensure wheel locks are fully disengaged.
