Setup and Assembly

Before You Begin

Ensure you have all components listed in the packaging. A rubber mallet is highly recommended for easier assembly.

Assembly Steps (Boltless Design)

1. Connect the Beam: Align the tabs on the beams with the slots on the vertical posts. Gently tap with a rubber mallet to secure the connection.
2. Snap the Crossbar: Insert the crossbars into the designated slots on the beams. Ensure they snap firmly into place.
3. Place the Wooden Board: Lay the MDF wooden boards onto the assembled frame, ensuring they sit flush within the beams.
4. Attach Non-Slip Foot Pads: Secure the non-slip foot pads to the bottom of the vertical posts for added stability and floor protection.

The shelves are adjustable. You can customize the height of each shelf by re-positioning the beams in different slots along the vertical posts.

This unit offers flexible configuration. It can be assembled as one tall 5-tier unit or as two separate shorter units (e.g., a 3-tier and a 2-tier unit) to best fit your space and storage needs.

Operating Instructions

• Loading the Shelf: Distribute weight evenly across each shelf. Avoid concentrating heavy items in one small area.
• Weight Capacity: Each individual shelf can hold up to 386 pounds. The total maximum weight capacity for the entire unit is 1925 pounds. Do not exceed these limits.
• Adjusting Shelf Height: To adjust a shelf, carefully remove all items from it. Disconnect the beams from the vertical posts, reposition them to the desired height, and re-secure them by tapping with a rubber mallet. Then, replace the MDF board.

Maintenance

To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Yaheetech Standing Shelf Unit, simply wipe it with a dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the painted finish or the MDF boards. Regularly check all connections to ensure they remain secure, especially after moving the unit or reconfiguring shelves.

Troubleshooting

• Unit Wobbles After Assembly:
  • Ensure all beams and crossbars are fully seated and secured into their respective slots. Use a rubber mallet to tap them firmly into place.
  • Verify that the unit is placed on a flat, level surface. Adjust the position if necessary.
  • Ensure weight is distributed evenly across the shelves. Uneven loading can affect stability.
• Difficulty Assembling Components:
  • Ensure you are using a rubber mallet to gently tap components into place. Forceful hammering with a metal hammer can bend the frame.
  • Double-check that components are oriented correctly according to the instructions.
  • If a connection is too tight, try wiggling the component slightly while applying pressure.
• Shelf Boards Sagging:
  • Check if the weight on the shelf exceeds the 386 lb per-shelf limit. Redistribute or remove items if necessary.
  • Ensure the MDF boards are properly seated within the supporting beams.
