Shelves: Shelves are removable for cleaning or reconfiguration. Lift straight up to remove.

CAUTION! Avoid rolling over cords, thresholds, or uneven surfaces which may cause tipping.

Care & Maintenance

To maintain appearance and function.

Cleaning: Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Use a mild detergent if needed. Dry immediately.
Avoid: Abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals which can damage the finish.
Casters: Check casters periodically for hair or debris. Clean with a damp cloth if rolling becomes difficult.
Inspection: Periodically check that all screws are tight and shelves are secure.

WARNING! Do not use the cart outdoors or in consistently damp environments to prevent rust.
