Simonrack Shelving Unit Safety and Usage Guidelines

Load Limits and Stability

• Never exceed the specified maximum load per shelf and for the entire rack.
• Distribute weight evenly across the shelves. Avoid placing heavy items on one side of the shelf, as this may cause imbalance and potentially tip over.
• Ensure the load is evenly distributed over the entire shelf surface to avoid point loads.
• Place the shelf firmly and stably. Ensure it cannot tip over.
• Shelving units must be firmly anchored to the wall to achieve maximum load capacity.
• Only use on flat surfaces.
• Ensure the area around the shelves is free of obstacles to ensure safe working.

Assembly and Maintenance

• Follow the assembly instructions carefully and ensure all screws and fasteners are tight.
• When assembling the shelf, wear appropriate protective equipment, such as gloves and safety shoes, to avoid injury.
• Perform regular inspections to ensure there are no structural damages or loose parts. Repair or replace damaged or loose components as necessary.

Safe Usage Practices

• Do not climb on the shelves or use them as ladders.
• Use proper lifting equipment and techniques to place and remove heavy loads to prevent injury or damage.
• To prevent accidents, keep children from climbing on the shelf or using it as a play structure.
• Products should not be used by children or persons with reduced physical, sensory, or mental abilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless explicitly permitted by the manufacturer's manual. Children should never play unsupervised. Cleaning and user maintenance must not be performed by children.
• ⚠️ Risk of Suffocation: Packaging materials are not toys. Keep packaging out of reach of children and individuals with reduced abilities.

General Guidance

Read the entire manufacturer's instruction manual carefully and follow all listed safety precautions. Before use, read all manufacturer information. Warning instructions cover some risks but cannot cover all. Keep manuals for future reference.
