Safety Instructions

WARNING! Failure to follow these instructions may result in serious injury or damage.

Weight Limit: Do not exceed the maximum load of 15 kg (33 lbs) evenly distributed.
Wall Type: Ensure the shelf is mounted to a solid wall (concrete, brick, or studs). Do not mount on plasterboard alone without proper anchors.
Child Safety: Do not allow children to climb or hang on the shelf.
Two-Person Job: Assembly and installation are easier and safer with two people.
Check Stability: After installation, test the shelf's stability before placing items on it.

Assembly Steps

Assemble the shelf components before wall mounting.

Identify Parts: Lay out all parts (A, B, C) on a soft surface to prevent scratches.
Attach Brackets to Shelf:
- Place the shelf board (A) upside down on a protected surface.
- Align the left wall bracket (B) with the pre-drilled holes on the underside of the shelf.
- Insert and hand-tighten the provided screws (D). Do not fully tighten yet.
- Repeat for the right bracket (C).
Final Tightening: Ensure both brackets are parallel and flush. Fully tighten all screws securely.
Check Alignment: Turn the shelf over. The brackets should be perpendicular to the shelf board.

Tip: Do not overtighten screws, as this may strip the threads.

Wall Installation

This is the most critical step. Ensure the shelf is level and securely fixed.

Choose Location: Select a wall area free of pipes and wires. Use a stud finder if mounting to wooden studs.
Mark Bracket Positions:
- Hold the assembled shelf against the wall at the desired height.
- Use a pencil to mark the screw holes for both brackets through the holes in the brackets.
- Use a level to ensure the marks are perfectly horizontal. Adjust if necessary.
Drill Holes:
- For solid walls (concrete/brick): Drill holes at the marks using a masonry bit slightly smaller than the wall plugs (E). Insert wall plugs flush with the wall surface.
- For wooden studs: Drill pilot holes slightly smaller than the screw diameter.
Mount the Shelf:
- Align the bracket holes with the wall holes/plugs.
- Insert the screws (D) and tighten firmly with a screwdriver until the bracket is snug against the wall. Do not overtighten.
- Repeat for the second bracket.
Final Check: Gently pull down on the shelf to test security. Place a level on top to confirm it is still horizontal.

CAUTION! If the wall material is uncertain, consult a professional. An improperly mounted shelf can fall.

CAUTION! Do not use the shelf as a step ladder or work surface. Avoid placing wet or hot items directly on the surface.

Troubleshooting

Problem	Possible Cause	Solution
Shelf is not level	Wall marks were not level; wall surface is uneven.	Remove shelf. Re-mark holes using a longer level. Use shims behind bracket if wall is uneven.
Shelf feels loose	Screws are not tight; wall plugs are not holding.	Tighten all screws. If problem persists in a solid wall, use larger wall anchors suitable for the weight.
Brackets won't align with shelf holes	Parts may be misidentified or assembled incorrectly.	Disassemble and verify parts B and C are left/right correct. Follow step-by-step diagrams.
Cannot drill into wall	Drill bit is wrong type or dull.	For masonry, use a carbide-tipped masonry bit. Apply firm, steady pressure. For very hard walls, start with a smaller pilot hole.
Scratches on shelf during assembly	Assembled on a hard surface.	Always lay parts on a towel, cardboard, or the packaging foam during assembly.
