MARK WALL/INSTALL WALL BRACKETS
1. Mark wall and drill
holes.
Mark wall with an “x” at
each point indicated in the
drawing. NOTE: If using
provided hardware, be
sure to avoid stud locations. Please note:
Measurements are from
center-to-center of each “x”
mark. Drill all marked locations using a 1/2" drill bit.
2. Install anchors.
Bend metal part of toggle
bolt sideways (a) and insert
through each 1/2" drilled
hole. Use care not to break
plastic while pushing
through hole. Once
through, be sure metal
part is sideways, NOT up
and down and flush
against back of wall.
Push the plastic tab all the
way forward (b) until flush
against wall. Break off
plastic legs (c).
3. Install wall brackets.
Each post requires two wall
brackets (and a center support bracket—installed at a
later time). The wall brackets use the two top and two
bottom markings made in
step #1 above. Install all wall
brackets so the flat side is
up with supplied 2" bolts and
washers.

POST ASSEMBLY
1. Remove bolts from
posts.
Use an adjustable wrench
to remove bolt from each
end of both posts. Set all
four bolts aside for later
use.
2. Arrange posts.
Note the grooves in each
post. The groove closest to
the end (about 1/2") will be
the “top” of the post.
Arrange both posts so the
“top” of each post is pointing in the same direction.
3. Assemble shelf supports and center
support brackets
onto posts.
From top of post, slide a
shelf support, a center support bracket, and another
shelf support onto post as
shown. Slide shelf supports
so hooks are up. Be sure
each center support bracket has the bent end facing
down. Repeat for second
post.
4. Attach split sleeves.
Turn posts to find numbers
along each groove. Locate
grooves which represent “7”
and “29.” These are recommended shelf locations. (If
adjusting shelf locations,
allow enough room for all
brackets.) Center shelf support over specific groove.
Note ridge on inside of each
split sleeve. Turn each split
sleeve so ridge is toward top
of post. Align each split
sleeve so the inner ridge fits
into the selected groove and
snap into place.
5. Secure shelf support
onto split sleeve.
Slide shelf support “collar”
over attached split sleeve.
Be sure both shelf supports
are aligned. Use a hammer
and a block of wood to
secure shelf support onto
split sleeve.

2. Secure center support bracket to wall.
Align center support bracket with center anchors.
Angle post slightly and
secure each center support bracket to wall/anchors
with two supplied 2" bolts
and washers.
3. Secure post to bottom wall bracket
and tighten all bolts.
Align hole in post with hole
in bottom wall bracket.
Place a bolt through the
bottom wall bracket and
into post to secure.
Repeat for second post.
Use an adjustable wrench
to tighten ALL four bolts
(top and bottom in both
posts).
4. Attach shelves.
Place shelf holes over top
hooks in shelf supports. If
necessary, use block of
wood and hammer to move
shelf support into proper
alignment.
5. Place hole plugs.
Firmly push a hole plug
into top of each shelf hole.
