Insert 4 Barrels (H3) into the holes on the top of
the Top Panel (C3), and 4 Barrels (H3) into the
holes on the bottom of the Bottom Panel (C4).
Make sure that the hole in the side of the Barrels
is aligned with the holes in the end of the panels.
After the Barrels are installed, screw the 8 Set
Screws (H4) into the Barrels using the Flat Head
Screwdriver (T2). Do not turn more than 1–2
rotations.
NOTE: Look into the side of the Barrel Nuts (H3) and make sure the Set Screw (H4) is not blocking the hole.
If the hole is blocked, unscrew the set screw a few turns until the hole is clear, which will allow the cam
bolts to enter.

Attach the Top and Bottom Panels (C3 & C4) to
the Side Panels (C1 & C2) by sliding the dowels

hole and make sure the set screw is loosened before insertion of the cam bolts. Orient the shelf as
shown, ensuring the brackets on the back are facing up.

STEP 6. INSTALL SAFETY STRAPASSEMBLY
Stand the shelf against the wall in the desired location. Ensure
that both wall levelers are touching the wall. Adhere a piece
of painter’s tape as the illustration depicts. Mark the wall
72.75 inches up from the floor, and 17.25 inches in from the
edge of the painter’s tape. This mark will be the location of
the wall anchor/fastener to secure your Safety Strap (C10) to
the wall.
NOTE: This can be done on either side of the shelf.
Drill a hole at this location for wall insert. At the marked
location, install the appropriate Wall Anchor for your wall
construction. Attach the Safety Strap (C10) to the wall using
the Wood Screw (H5).
