Setup: Assembly Instructions

Assembly is required for this dresser. It is recommended that two adults assemble this product. Please follow the steps below carefully, referring to the separate detailed assembly guide included in your package for specific diagrams and part numbers.

1. Prepare the Area: Clear a spacious, clean, and level area for assembly. Lay down a blanket or cardboard to protect the furniture pieces and your floor from scratches.
2. Identify Components: Unpack all parts and identify them using the provided parts list in the separate assembly guide. Group similar hardware together.
3. Assemble the Main Frame: Attach the side panels to the base and top panel using the designated hardware (e.g., dowels, cam locks, screws). Ensure all connections are secure and aligned.
4. Install Drawer Rails: Securely attach the smooth slide rails to the inside of the dresser frame according to the pre-drilled holes or markings. Ensure they are level and facing the correct direction.
5. Assemble Drawers: Construct each of the six drawer boxes. Attach the drawer fronts and then install the metal handles. Ensure the handles are tightened securely but do not overtighten.
6. Insert Drawers: Carefully slide each assembled drawer into its corresponding rail in the dresser frame. Test each drawer for smooth operation.
7. Install Anti-Tipping Device: Attach the anti-tipping device to the back of the dresser and securely anchor it to a wall stud, following the specific instructions provided with the device. This is a critical safety step to prevent accidental tipping.
8. Final Check: Verify that all screws are tightened, and the dresser is stable. Ensure all drawers open and close smoothly.

Operating Instructions

Your Furmax 6-Drawer Wood Dresser is designed for convenient and organized storage in various rooms, including bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways.

Drawer Usage

• Opening/Closing: The drawers are equipped with smooth-gliding rails for effortless opening and closing. Use the metal handles to pull and push the drawers. Avoid forcing drawers if they feel stiff.
• Weight Capacity: The dresser top has a maximum weight capacity of 250 lbs, making it suitable for a TV up to 65 inches or various decorative items. Each individual drawer has a maximum weight capacity of 20 lbs. Do not exceed these limits.
• Storage: Utilize the six spacious drawers for organizing clothing, linens, accessories, books, or other household items. Distribute weight evenly within drawers.

Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will help preserve the appearance and functionality of your dresser.

• Cleaning: Wipe the dresser surfaces with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or excessive moisture, as they may damage the finish. The top surface is designed to be waterproof and easy to clean for everyday spills.
• Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws, fasteners, and drawer handles to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain the dresser's structural integrity and stability.
• Drawer Rails: If drawers become stiff or difficult to operate, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the slide rails to restore smooth movement.
• Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can cause fading, discoloration, or warping of the wood finish. Position the dresser away from direct, intense sunlight.

Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your dresser.

Drawer is stuck or difficult to open/close.

Solution:

1. Check if the drawer is overloaded. Reduce the weight if it exceeds the 20 lbs capacity.
2. Inspect the slide rails for any obstructions (e.g., clothing caught) or visible damage.
3. Ensure the drawer is properly aligned on the rails. Gently push it back into place, ensuring both sides engage correctly.
4. If the rails are dry, apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to facilitate smoother movement.

Dresser feels unstable or wobbly.

Solution:

1. Verify that the dresser is placed on a level surface. Use shims if necessary to stabilize it on uneven floors.
2. Check all assembly screws and fasteners throughout the dresser frame and drawers. Tighten any loose connections.
3. Ensure the anti-tipping device is correctly installed and securely anchored to a wall stud. This is crucial for preventing instability.

Missing or damaged parts during assembly.

Solution: Contact Furmax customer service immediately for assistance and replacement parts. Do not attempt to assemble or use the dresser with missing or damaged components, as this may compromise its safety and stability.
