Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Missing parts or damaged components upon arrival. | Shipping damage or packaging error. | Contact Merax customer support immediately with your order details and photos of the damage. |
| Difficulty with assembly, instructions unclear. | Complex assembly steps, misinterpretation of diagrams. | Review the assembly steps carefully. Ensure all parts are oriented correctly. If specific steps are unclear, contact customer support for clarification or additional guidance. Ensure dowel holes are not too small; gently widen if necessary. |
