5. Maintenance and Care

Proper care will help maintain the appearance and structural integrity of your HOSTACK cabinet.

• Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that may damage the finish.
• Spills: Clean up spills immediately to prevent moisture absorption and potential damage to the wood finish.
• Environmental Conditions: Avoid placing the cabinet in direct sunlight or near heat sources (e.g., radiators, fireplaces) to prevent warping, fading, or cracking. Maintain a stable room temperature and humidity.
• Moving: When moving the cabinet, empty all contents and lift it carefully. Do not drag the cabinet, as this can damage the legs or structure.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your cabinet, consider the following common solutions:

• Wobbly Cabinet: Ensure all assembly screws are securely tightened. Check that the cabinet is placed on a level surface. Adjust floor glides if present.
• Doors Not Closing Properly or Uneven Gaps: Cabinet doors often have adjustable hinges. Locate the adjustment screws on the hinges (typically two or three screws per hinge). Turning these screws clockwise or counter-clockwise can adjust the door's position horizontally, vertically, or in depth, allowing you to align the doors and eliminate gaps. Refer to the hinge diagram in your assembly manual for specific adjustment points.
• Drawers Sticking: Check that the drawer slides are properly installed and free of obstructions. Ensure the drawer is not overloaded.
