Step 12
Fit doors and handles
Note: The easiest way to
attach each door is
to fit the top hinge first,
then align and fit the
other hinges.
a: Push the hinge
onto the front part of the
hinge plate .
The recess at the bottom
of screw B goes into the
slot in the hinge plate.
b: Keep the hinge
FLAT against the hinge
plate as you slide it
across as far as it will go.
Tighten screw A.
c: The hinge must be
flat against the hinge
plate prior to any
adjustment.
d: The hinge must
NOT be AT AN ANGLE
to the hinge plate
when assembled.
This would indicate that
the recess at the bottom
of screw B had not
located in the slot in the
hinge plate and the hinge
would not be secure.
Remove the hinge from
the hinge plate and then
re-assemble being
careful to follow
instructions a-c.
e: Attach a handle to
each door using 2
screws .

Top of Unit
WALL WALL
Back of Unit
Fit the bracket
To prevent possible
overbalancing, we
recommend that this unit
is secured to a suitable
wall by use of the
bracket fitted to the
top of the unit.
Fixings are not supplied,
as they will need to suit
the wall type and the
length of screw will
depend on the distance
from the back of the unit
to the wall.
Fix the bracket
loosely onto the top of
the unit using screw
and mark the wall for the
wall fixing.
Swivel the bracket
away from the wall and
drill a hole in the wall
using a suitable drill bit
and fit your wall fixing.
Swivel the bracket
back and fix the bracket
to the wall, then tighten
screw .
Note: Take care when
drilling the wall that you
do not drill into any
pipes, wires etc.
If in doubt, consult an
expert.
Warning: The
unit is heavy.
Lift with care.
