Instruccions de muntatge i muntatge

The Wiltec storage rack features an intuitive snap-in system, requiring no special tools for assembly. Follow these steps carefully:

2. Muntar els muntants: If the uprights are supplied in two halves, connect them by sliding the interlocking sections together. Ensure they are securely joined.
3. Attach Crossbeams (Lower Section): Begin by assembling the lowest shelf level. Take two long crossbeams and two short crossbeams. Connect them to the uprights by inserting the tabs on the crossbeams into the designated slots on the uprights. Gently tap with a rubber mallet (not included) if needed to ensure a snug fit. Ensure the frame forms a stable rectangle.
4. Insert First Shelf Board: Once the lower frame is secure, place one MDF shelf board onto the assembled crossbeams. Ensure it sits flush within the frame.
5. Continue with Middle Sections: Repeat step 3 and 4 for the remaining three shelf levels, working your way upwards. Decide on your desired shelf heights before attaching the crossbeams, as the snap-in system allows for adjustable spacing.
6. Attach Crossbeams (Top Section): Assemble the top shelf level in the same manner as the lower sections.
7. Insert Final Shelf Board: Place the last MDF shelf board onto the top assembled crossbeams.
8. Install Plastic Feet: Place the plastic feet/caps onto the bottom ends of the uprights. This protects your floor and provides additional stability.
