6 With the assistance of another adult, position
assembled unit against wall in desired location. Verify
back edges of shelves all touch the wall as illustrated.
Brackets attached to the desktop should also be
touching the wall. Mark location of each bracket
mounting hole on the wall. Move unit out of workspace.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
For safe installation it is essential
to use hardware appropriate for
your wall type. Mount to wood
wall studs whenever possible. If
you are unsure of what type of
fasteners to use, consult your
local hardware store or a qualified
professional. This product is only
deterrent, it is not a substitute for
proper adult supervision.
Mounting to masonry wall:
Drill a 3/16" diameter hole at the mark. Insert a wall anchor
into each hole and gently tap until flush with a hammer. Move
shelf back to its final location by aligning the bracket holes
and anchors. Verify that back edges of shelves are against
the wall and attach using 2 medium screws.
Discard toggle bolt as it is not necessary.
Masonry wall mounting
Mounting to drywall:
A. Drill a 5/8"diameter hole at each mark. Locate the 2 toggle
bolts. The toggle bolt consists of a screw and the toggle
wings. Unscrew these two parts, put screw through bracket
hole and reattach toggle wings with a few turns of the screw.
B. Move shelf back to final location. Fold toggle
wings and insert into hole. Toggle wings will unfold inside
hole. Tighten toggle bolt with a flat head screwdriver while
pulling firmly toward you.
As the screw tightens, verify that back edges of shelves are
against the wall. If not, re-adjust and continue tightening
screw until secure. Repeat for the remaining bracket.
Discard anchors and medium screws as they are not necessary.
CLEANING AND CARE
Clean wood surfaces with a damp cloth. Do not use
furniture wax or polish as the wood is finished with a
protective clear lacquer.
