Assembly Instructions

The Yaheetech 5-Tier Adjustable Standing Shelf Unit features a boltless design for straightforward assembly. A rubber mallet (not included) is recommended for easier installation. Two people are suggested for assembly.

1. Prepare Components: Lay out all parts on a clean, flat surface. Ensure you have enough space. Wear the provided gloves to protect your hands from sharp edges.
2. Assemble the Frame: Connect the horizontal beams to the vertical posts. The boltless design allows the beams to slot into the keyholes on the posts. Use a rubber mallet to gently tap the connections into place for a secure fit.
3. Install Crossbars: Snap the crossbars into place within the frame to provide additional support for the MDF boards.
4. Place MDF Boards: Carefully place the MDF boards onto the assembled frame, ensuring they rest securely on the crossbars and beams.
5. Attach Foot Pads: Secure the rubber foot pads to the bottom of the vertical posts. These pads provide stability and protect your floor from scratches.

Adjusting Shelf Height & Alternative Configurations

The shelves of this unit are adjustable. To change a shelf's height, carefully remove the MDF board, detach the horizontal beams from the posts, reposition them to the desired height, and re-secure. This unit can also be assembled as two shorter, separate shelf units or a workbench configuration.

Usage and Operation

• Loading: Distribute weight evenly across each shelf. Do not exceed the individual shelf capacity of 386 lb or the total unit capacity of 1925 lb.
