Fit a cap onto one end of the post then tighten a screw in the small hole at 1/2” (13mm) from the end of the post.
Note: Additionnal 3/32” (2.5 mm) holes may be drilled for alternative rack positioning on the posts.
Insert a rack from the other end of the post and slide it down until it sits on the screw.
INSTALLATION
Make sure that the system is properly secured to an appropriate mounting surface using fasteners (not included) that are compatible with mounting surface and make sure that the mounting surface and fasteners are able to support the weight of the system and the items you will store on it.
If mounting to a wall, first locate the structural supports (studs or wall beams or posts) and secure the system, through the wall into these supports.
The distance between the two posts should be approxi­mately 4’ to 6’ (1200-1800mm) depending on the aver­age length of the lumber or other items to be stored, as well as the location of the structural supports in the wall.
Tighten another screw in the next hole and install another rack.
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF INJURY FROM SYSTEM FAILURE OR COLLAPSE, DO NOT MOUNT THE SYSTEM TO DRYWALL, PARTICLE BOARDOR OTHER
ON-STRUCTURAL SURFACES ALONE. MAKE SURE THE FASTENERS USED
N FIRMLY SECURE THE SYSTEM TO A STRUCTURAL MEMBER, SUCH AS A WALL STUD, BEAM OR POST. DO NOT EXCEED THE RATED WEIGHT
APACITY OF 110 LBS (55 LBS) PER LEVEL.

anchors that are suitable for 1 1/4” - 1 1/2” (30 - 40 mm) thick material.
Place a round spacer behind the post, in line with the upper mounting hole and secure the post to the moun­ting surface. Repeat with the two other mounting holes.
Install the second post, making sure it is leveled with the first one. You can now store your lumber.
