Please follow the included graphical assembly instructions carefully. Ensure you have the necessary tools (e.g., screwdriver, drill, level, pencil) before starting.
5.1. Assembly Steps
- Unpack Components: Carefully unpack all parts and lay them out on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratches. Verify against the package contents list.
- Assemble Frame: Connect the metal frame sections as indicated in the assembly diagram. Ensure all connections are snug but do not overtighten screws initially.
- Attach Shelves: Secure the oak-finish particle board shelves to the designated positions within the frame. Use the provided screws and ensure they are flush.
- Final Tightening: Once all parts are assembled, gently tighten all screws to ensure stability. Do not overtighten to avoid damaging the material.
5.2. Wall Mounting
- Choose Location: Select a suitable wall location, considering the shelf's dimensions and weight capacity. Avoid mounting on plasterboard without proper anchors or directly into studs.
- Mark Drilling Points: Hold the assembled shelf against the wall at the desired height. Use a pencil to mark the positions for the mounting holes. Use a level to ensure the marks are perfectly horizontal.
- Drill Holes: Drill holes at the marked positions using a drill bit appropriate for your wall type and the provided wall plugs.
- Insert Wall Plugs: Insert the wall plugs into the drilled holes until they are flush with the wall surface.
- Mount Shelf: Align the shelf's mounting points with the wall plugs and secure it using the provided screws. Tighten firmly until the shelf is stable and flush against the wall.
6. Usage Guidelines
The Vicco Fyrk Round Wall Shelf is designed for displaying decorative items, small plants, books, or other lightweight objects. To ensure longevity and safety:
- Do not place excessively heavy items on the shelves. Adhere strictly to the 10 kg maximum load capacity.
- Distribute weight evenly across the four compartments to maintain balance and prevent stress on the mounting points.
- Avoid exposing the shelf to excessive moisture or direct sunlight, which can damage the material and finish.

To keep your Vicco Fyrk Round Wall Shelf in optimal condition:
- Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or excessive water, as these can damage the melamine coating and metal frame.
- Dusting: Regularly dust the shelf with a dry, soft cloth to prevent buildup.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the shelf for any signs of wear, loose screws, or damage. Tighten any loose fasteners as needed.
