Introduction

Thank you for choosing the Keelian 55-75 Gallon Heavy Duty Aquarium Stand. This stand is designed to provide a stable and functional base for your aquarium or reptile terrarium, accommodating tanks from 55 to 75 gallons.

Safety Information

• Load Capacity: Ensure the total weight of your aquarium (including water, substrate, decorations, and equipment) does not exceed the stand's maximum load capacity of 1200 LBS for the tabletop and 800 LBS for the bottom shelf. Overloading can lead to structural failure and serious injury.
• Level Surface: Always place the aquarium stand on a flat, level, and stable surface to prevent tipping or uneven weight distribution, which can stress the aquarium glass.
• Electrical Safety: The integrated power outlets are for convenience. Do not overload the outlets. Ensure all electrical connections are dry and away from water to prevent electrical shock. Use drip loops for all power cords.
• Water Spills: Immediately clean up any water spills on or around the stand to prevent damage to the wood components and potential electrical hazards.
• Children and Pets: Keep children and pets away from the aquarium stand during assembly and ensure the stand is stable before placing the aquarium. Do not allow children to climb on the stand.
• FSC-Certified Wood: The top and shelves are made of FSC-certified wood, ensuring responsible forest management.

Setup & Assembly

Before you begin, ensure all parts are present and undamaged. Refer to the included parts list. Assembly typically requires two people.

1. Unboxing and Part Identification

Carefully unpack all components. Lay them out on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratches. Identify each part using the provided labels and the parts diagram in your manual.

2. Frame Assembly

Begin by assembling the main metal frame structure. Ensure all screws are tightened securely but do not overtighten until all components are in place.

3. Installing Shelves and Power Outlets

Attach the wooden panels for the shelves. Note that the right-side compartment features removable shelves for flexible storage. Install the integrated power outlet panel on the designated side.

4. Final Touches and Stability Check

Install the crossbars at the back for enhanced stability. Ensure all screws are fully tightened. Verify the stand is level and stable before placing your aquarium. If your floor is uneven, you may need to use shims to achieve perfect balance.

Operating Instructions

Using the Built-in Power Outlets

The stand includes integrated power outlets (2 AC, 1 Type-C USB, 1 Type-A USB) for convenient connection of your aquarium equipment such as lights, filters, and heaters. Plug the stand's main power cord into a wall outlet. Ensure all connections are secure and dry.

Utilizing Storage Options

• Right-Side Compartment: This area features removable shelves. Adjust or remove shelves as needed to store fish food, cleaning tools, or to accommodate larger equipment like canister filters and CO2 hoses.
• Bottom Shelf: The sturdy bottom shelf is designed to support smaller 10-20 gallon fish tanks, allowing for dual-tank setups or additional storage.
• Left-Side Open Space: This large open area is ideal for another aquarium or other essential equipment.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe down the stand regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
• Spill Management: In case of water spills, immediately dry the affected areas to prevent water damage to the wood and metal components.
• Structural Integrity: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary to maintain stability.
• Electrical Components: Inspect the power outlets and cords for any signs of wear or damage. Discontinue use and replace if any damage is found.

Troubleshooting

Stand Instability/Wobbling

• Cause: Uneven floor surface or loose connections.
• Solution: Ensure the stand is placed on a completely flat surface. Check and tighten all assembly screws. If the floor is uneven, use shims under the stand's feet to level it.

Power Outlets Not Working

• Cause: Main power cord unplugged, wall outlet issue, or overloaded circuit.
• Solution: Verify the stand's main power cord is securely plugged into a functional wall outlet. Check your home's circuit breaker. Do not exceed the maximum wattage for the integrated outlets.
