5. Maintenance

Proper maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your SISESOL file cabinet.

• Cleaning: Wipe the cabinet surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these may damage the powder-coated finish.
• Lubrication: Periodically check the drawer slides for smooth operation. If they become stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied.
• Inspection: Regularly inspect all screws and fasteners to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten if necessary.
• Rust Prevention: The powder-coated steel is rust-resistant, but avoid prolonged exposure to moisture to maintain its condition.

6. Troubleshooting

• Drawers are stiff or not sliding smoothly:
  • Check if the drawer slides are properly aligned and free from obstructions.
  • Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the slides.
  • Ensure the cabinet is on a level surface.
• Lock is not engaging/disengaging:
  • Verify that both drawers are fully closed before attempting to lock.
  • Ensure the key is fully inserted and turned completely.
  • If the issue persists, contact customer service.
• Cabinet is wobbly:
  • Check that all assembly screws are securely tightened.
  • Ensure the cabinet is placed on a flat, even surface.
  • Verify that the casters are properly installed and tightened.
