Set it up close to the wall so the product doesn't fall over when it is pushed backwards.
The instructions shown below is a safer way to set up the product, which is to fix it on the wall so the product doesn't fall over when
it is pulled in the forward direction. It will prevent the product from falling forward and hurting people. It will also prevent the product
from damage caused by fall. Please make sure that children don't climb on or hang from the product.
1. Use the bracket and the bolt to fix the product to the wall as shown in the picture.
2. Secure the bracket with the bolt (not provided as parts of the product, must purchase separately) on the wall.
3. Use a sturdy rope (not provided as parts of the product, must purchase separately) to tie the product. It is safer to tie the rope so
it becomes horizontal between the wall and the product.
Notes
• When moving the product to another place undo the ropes first.
• Use a product holder or a cabinet that is big and strong enough for the size and weight of the product.
• To use the product safely make sure that the height of the bracket that is mounted on the wall is same as that of the product.
