TIPPING RESTRAINT HARDWARE
We have included one Tipping Restraint Hardware bag (22) for this unit. You must install this hardware
to prevent accidents or injuries from falling unit.
When properly installed, this restraint can provide protection against the unexpected tipping of the storage
rack due to small tremors, bumps or climbing. We strongly recommended mounting this hardware to a
wall stud and your unit.
Please carefully read the instructions printed on the bag.
Note: You must install the Tipping Restraint Hardware with the unit in use to prevent any accidents or
damage to the unit.
Tools required: Phillips Screwdriver, Mallet, Power Drill, and 3/8” Drill Bit.
Care and Maintenance
Use a soft, clean cloth that will not scratch the surface when dusting.
Use of furniture polishes is not necessary. Should you choose to use polishes, test in an
inconspicuous area first.
Using solvents of any kind on your furniture may damage the finish.
Never use water to clean your furniture as it may cause damage to the finish.
Always use coasters under beverage glasses and flowerpots.
Liquid spills should be removed immediately. Using a soft clean cloth, blot the spill gently.
Avoid rubbing.
Always use protective pads under hot dishes and plates. Heat can cause chemical changes
that may create spotting within the furniture finish.
Stains or marks from crayons or ink markers will be difficult to remove.
In the event that your furniture is stained or otherwise damaged during use, we recommend
that you call a professional to repair your furniture.
Check bolts/screws periodically and tighten them if necessary.
Further advice about wood furniture care
It is best to keep your furniture in a climate controlled environment. Extreme temperature and
humidity changes can cause fading, warping, shrinking and splitting of wood. It is advised to
keep furniture away from direct sunlight as may damage the finish.
Proper care and cleaning at home will extend the life of your purchase. Follow the important
and helpful tips that will enhance your furniture as it ages.
We hope you enjoy your purchase for many years.
