Assembling the Cabinet
Attention
Heavy object
This product is heavy. Minimum two persons are necessary to assemble or to move the cabinet.
To assemble this cabinet follow the steps below:
Unpack all packages and carefully lay the parts out on the floor.
Put the 2 frames (B) on the bottom plate (A), as shown in Fig. 19.
Use a socket wrench and a hex key (R) to attach the 2 frames (B) to the bottom plate (A) with 8 nuts
(K) and 8 screws (M), as shown in Fig. 20.

RCA-FSM-18 / RCA-FSM-22 / RCA-FSM-32 / RCA-FSM-42
Product code: D7670 / D7671 / D7672 / D7673
Carefully put the cabinet on its side, to make the execution of the following steps easier.
Use a hex key (R) to attach the 4 wheels (J) to the bottom of the bottom plate (A) with 4 x 4 screws
(N), as shown in Fig. 21.
Note:
After the wheel installation do not put the cabinet on its wheels, as shown in Fig 22.
Fig. 21
Fig. 22
Attach the adjustable feet (I) to the bottom of the bottom plate (A), by turning them clockwise, as
shown in Fig. 23.
Tighten the top nut of the adjustable feet (I) with a wrench, as shown in Fig. 24.

RCA-FSM-18 / RCA-FSM-22 / RCA-FSM-32 / RCA-FSM-42
Product code: D7670 / D7671 / D7672 / D7673
Make sure that the adjustable feet (I) are extended more than the wheels (J). If necessary, use a
wrench to turn the bottom nut of the adjustable feet (I) counterclockwise, as shown in Fig. 25. This will
prevent the cabinet from rolling on the wheels when you put it in upright position.
Put the cabinet in upright position.
Make sure that the cabinet is completely leveled in all directions, as shown in Fig. 26. Adjust the
adjustable feet (I) if necessary. See step 08.
