Assembly Instructions

Follow these steps to assemble your VIPEK V4 Heavy Duty Clothing Rack. No tools are required for basic assembly, but a rubber mallet (not included) may be helpful to secure shelves.

Step 1: Prepare the Poles and Clips

Identify the bottom poles. Attach the plastic clips at the desired height for the first shelf. Ensure the arrow on the clip points upwards and the clips snap securely into the grooves on the poles. Multiple clearances between two plastic clips are a structural design feature, not a defect.

Step 2: Install the Bottom Shelves

Slide the first wire shelf down over the poles, ensuring it rests firmly on the plastic clips. Gently tap the shelf corners with a rubber mallet (not included) to secure it. Repeat for all bottom shelves, creating the base structure.

Step 3: Extend Poles and Add Middle/Top Shelves

Attach the middle and top pole sections by screwing them into the lower sections. Secure additional plastic clips at desired heights for the remaining shelves. Slide the shelves into place, ensuring they are parallel to the floor and all four sleeves fit snugly onto the poles. Use a rubber mallet if needed.

Step 4: Attach Hanger Rods and Side Hooks

Insert the hanger rods into the designated slots on the shelves or poles. Attach the side hooks to the outer poles for additional hanging space for accessories.
