Operating Instructions

The STORAGE MANIAC Laundry Sorter is designed for ease of use in organizing and transporting laundry.

• Sorting Laundry: Utilize the two separate bags to sort laundry as needed (e.g., lights and darks, delicates and regular).
• Moving the Sorter: Unlock the two lockable wheels by flipping their levers. Gently push or pull the sorter to your desired location. Once positioned, engage the wheel locks to prevent movement.
• Removing Laundry Bags: Each bag features sturdy metal handles. To remove a bag, simply lift it by its handles from the frame. This allows for easy transport of laundry to the washing machine without moving the entire sorter.

Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life of your laundry sorter.

• Cleaning Bags: The laundry bags are made of Oxford cloth with a waterproof coating. They can be easily cleaned by wiping with a damp cloth. For deeper cleaning, the bags can be removed from the frame.
• Frame Care: Wipe the metal frame with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid abrasive cleaners that may damage the finish.
• Wheel Maintenance: Periodically check the wheels for lint or debris that may hinder smooth rolling. Clean as necessary.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your laundry sorter, refer to the following common solutions:

• Sorter is unstable or wobbly: Ensure all screws and connectors on the metal frame are tightened securely. Check that the frame is assembled correctly according to the instructions.
• Wheels are not rolling smoothly: Inspect the casters for any accumulated lint, hair, or debris. Clean the wheels thoroughly. Ensure the wheel locks are disengaged.
• Laundry bags are sagging: Verify that the horizontal bar at the bottom of the frame is correctly installed and supporting the bags. Ensure bags are not overloaded beyond their 25 lbs capacity.
• Difficulty removing bags: Ensure the bags are properly seated on the upper bars and not caught on any part of the frame. Lift straight up using the metal handles.
