STEP 3: ATTACH FIRST ARM
TIP!
It is easiest to attach arms when the side of the pot rack to which you are connecting the arm hangs slightly over the edge
of the table. That provides clearance for the flared end that extends below the body of the rack.
Now remove the barrel bolt (28A) from one side and place an angle arm (1) [2-hole end] on the OUTSIDE of the body. Align
the three layers (rectangle ends [2], arm [1] on outside) and reinsert the barrel Bolt (28A) through the upper hole from the OUT-
SIDE.
STEP 4: ATTACH OTHER ARM
Repeat STEP THREE for remaining arm.
STEP 5: HANG TAB
Position hang tab (5) at top of each arm, insert barrel nut/bolt and loosely tighten.
STEP 6: LEVEL POT RACK ON TABLE
Place assembled rack squarely on table and adjust all parts to be certain they are level and straight. Then tighten all bolts
firmly.
You’re now finished and ready to attach to the ceiling!
How to Attach Your Pot Rack to the Ceiling
TOOLS NEEDED:
Provided: Installation hardware (anchors, bolt hook, screw hook, S-hook)
You will need: tape measure, pencil, drill and ½” drill bit, hammer and nail
STEP 1: LOCATION
Decide where you want to place your pot rack. We suggest a location over an island or near your stove and food preparation
area. Also consider the height of the ceiling where the pot rack will hang. (See STEP 2 below.)
On the ceiling, mark a point where the top of rack arms will attach to ceiling bolt hook. Then tap a small nail through the mark
to be certain a joist is not in the way. (NOTE: because your pot rack includes super-strong new-technology anchors, you DO
NOT need to locate and bolt to a ceiling joist. See more info under STEP 3.)
STEP 2: HEIGHT
What is the ideal height for your pot rack? Decide who will be the primary cook using the pot rack. The bottom of your longest
pan (usually a 10” or 12” skillet) should be easily reachable, about 6 inches above the cook’s head. Make sure the cook can
also reach the shortest pots.
This pot rack is designed for a 9-foot ceiling, a common height in many kitchens. If your ceiling is HIGHER than 9 feet, you
may want to consider adding chain to lower the rack to the ideal height.
STEP 3: INSTALL DRYWALL ANCHORS
First, here’s important information about our anchors. RACK IT UP’s new-technology DRYWALL anchor eliminates the need
to bolt your pot rack to a ceiling joist. The steel anchor is very strong and when installed in drywall an anchor holds about 200
lbs., many times the weight you will likely hang from your pot rack.
Plus, since you no longer have to consider the location of a joist which usually determines where your rack has to be installed,
you can position it in drywall anywhere you want!
