Assembly Steps
Step 1
Attach the 6 adjustable feet (114947/115988) to the underside of the two main bottom panels. Use the provided screws.
Step 2
Insert 12 cam dowels (130618) into the pre-drilled holes on the edges of the bottom panels and side panels.
Step 3
Attach the two side panels to the bottom panels. Ensure the cam dowels align with the corresponding holes. Insert vertical dividers into their designated slots on the bottom panels.
Step 4
Secure the side panels and dividers to the bottom panels using 16 cam locks (116637) inserted into the larger holes. Turn the cam locks clockwise to tighten.
Step 5
Attach one bracket (1x 144342) to the designated position on one of the internal vertical panels. This bracket may be for support or cable management.
Step 6
Slide the back panels into the grooves on the rear of the unit. Ensure they are fully seated.
Step 7
Secure the back panels or internal structure using 2x cam lock assemblies (e.g., 130619, 130722, etc.).
Step 8
Insert and attach the internal vertical dividers into the main structure. Ensure they are correctly oriented.
Step 9
Place the top panel onto the assembled unit. Align the holes with the cam dowels and other connectors.
Step 10
Secure the top panel using 2x cam lock assemblies (e.g., 130619, 130722, etc.) and 4x cam lock assemblies (e.g., 118137, 122971, etc.).
Step 11
Attach the drawer/door runners (2x 144351/144352/144353) to the inside of the unit's compartments, following the pre-drilled holes.
Step 12
Attach the remaining drawer/door runners (1x) to the appropriate positions.
Step 13
Attach the support brackets (1x of one type, 1x of another type) to the unit. These might be for reinforcing the structure or for cable management.
Step 14
Route any necessary cables (e.g., for electronics) through the designated openings and along the back or inside of the unit.
Step 15
Attach cable management clips (1x 133209/10093085) to secure the cables neatly.
Step 16
Adjust the overall height and stability of the unit by turning the adjustable feet. Use the clips (4x 100006) for initial positioning or stability.
Step 17
Further adjust the feet for leveling the unit. Use the clips (2x 100006) as needed.
Step 18
Anti-Tip Device Installation: Attach the anti-tip device brackets (2x 103693) to the top rear edge of the unit using screws. Secure the other end of the device to a wall stud using appropriate wall mounting hardware (not detailed in this manual, consult hardware store for correct wall type fasteners). This is crucial to prevent tipover.
