4.1 Rolling and Locking the Wheels

The kitchen island is equipped with five 360° swivel wheels for easy movement. To move the island, ensure the wheel locks are disengaged. To secure the island in place, press down on the locking levers of the two designated wheels until they click into the locked position. Always lock the wheels when the island is stationary to prevent unintended movement.

4.2 Using the Drop Leaf Top

The premium rubberwood top features a drop leaf extension. To extend the leaf, gently lift it and pull out the supporting mechanism underneath until it locks into place. To fold it down, release the support mechanism and carefully lower the leaf. This feature allows for flexible use, providing extra workspace or dining area when needed, and saving space when folded.
