3. Assembly Instructions

Assembly is straightforward with the provided tools and step-by-step instructions. It is recommended to have two people for assembly due to the size and weight of the unit.

Tools Required:

• Included Allen Wrench
• Phillips Head Screwdriver (not included, recommended for faster assembly)

Assembly Steps:

1. Unpack and Sort: Carefully unpack all components and lay them out on a clean, soft surface. Identify each part using the parts list. Note that some poles may contain dust; it is advisable to assemble in an area where this can be easily cleaned.
2. Assemble the Main Frames: Connect the vertical steel frames using the horizontal support bars. Ensure the screw holes align correctly. Some connections may be tight; gentle force or a rubber mallet may be needed.
3. Attach Shelf Boards: Place the MDF shelf boards onto the assembled frames. The two middle shelf boards are secured from below with screws, while the side shelf boards are secured from the side. Pay attention to the orientation of the steel frames, as only two of the four vertical frames have bottom holes for the middle shelves.
4. Install X-shaped Brackets: Attach the X-shaped crossbars to the rear of the unit. These provide additional stability and prevent swaying.
5. Adjust Foot Pads: Once the unit is assembled, adjust the non-slip foot pads at the bottom of each leg to level the shelf on uneven floors.
6. Secure with Anti-tip Device: For safety, attach the anti-tip device to the top rear of the shelf and secure it to a wall stud using appropriate hardware.

5. Maintenance

• Spills: Immediately wipe up any spills to prevent staining or damage to the wood grain finish.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues during assembly or use, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Difficulty with Screw Alignment: Ensure that all frame pieces are oriented correctly according to the instructions. Sometimes, screw holes may appear misaligned if a piece is rotated incorrectly. Loosen all screws slightly, adjust the parts, and then retighten.
• Tight Connections: If poles or parts are difficult to fit together, apply gentle, even pressure. A rubber mallet can be used carefully to tap parts into place, but avoid excessive force to prevent damage.
• Unit Wobbles After Assembly:
  1. Check that all screws are fully tightened.
  2. Ensure the X-shaped brackets are securely installed at the back.
  3. Adjust the foot pads at the bottom of each leg to compensate for uneven flooring.
• Missing Parts: If you find any parts missing from the package, please contact Aoxun customer support with your purchase details.
