5. Final Tightening: Once all components are loosely assembled, go back and securely tighten all connections with the appropriate tools. Do not overtighten.

5.3 Wall Mounting

1. Choose Location: Select a suitable wall location, ensuring it is a solid wall (concrete, tile, or has wood studs) capable of supporting the rack's weight and contents.
2. Mark Drilling Points: Hold the assembled rack against the wall at the desired height. Use a level to ensure it is perfectly horizontal. Mark the drilling points for the wall mounting flanges with a pencil. It is crucial for the rack to be level for proper function and appearance.
3. Drill Pilot Holes: Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. The size of the drill bit should match the wall anchors provided.
4. Insert Wall Anchors: Insert the wall anchors into the pilot holes. For wood studs, anchors may not be necessary, but ensure screws are long enough to penetrate deeply.
5. Secure Rack to Wall: Align the wall mounting flanges of the rack with the installed anchors/holes. Insert and tighten the screws to secure the rack firmly to the wall. Ensure all mounting points are tight and the rack is stable before proceeding.
6. Verify Stability: Gently pull on the installed rack to confirm it is securely fastened and does not wobble.
