Assembly Instructions
Tools Required (Not Included)
[Screwdriver symbol] Screwdriver, [Pencil symbol] Pencil, [Spirit Level symbol] Spirit Level.
Step 1: Planning and Marking
Determine the desired configuration (e.g., straight, L-shape, U-shape). For corner installations, measure and mark the distances from the corner (e.g., 88.7 cm / 35" for L-shape, or 88.7 cm / 35" and 87 cm / 34.25" for U-shape). Use a spirit level to ensure accurate horizontal placement of mounting points.
Step 2: Install Wall Mounts
Attach the two cylindrical mounting brackets to the wall at the marked positions using appropriate screws and wall plugs (not included). Ensure they are securely fastened.
Step 3: Attach Base Plates
Attach the two circular base plates onto the installed cylindrical mounting brackets.
Step 4: Insert Rods
Insert the rods into the base plates. A "CLICK!" sound indicates a secure connection. The diagrams show two rods of 2x and one rod of 1x being used in various configurations.
Step 5: Connect Rod Sections (for longer configurations)
If assembling a longer rod or a specific shape (e.g., U-shape), use the provided straight and curved connector pieces. Insert the connector into the ends of the rods and push them together until they click into place.
Step 6: Final Assembly
Complete the assembly by connecting all necessary rod sections and ensuring all connections are secure.
