System 180 furniture is built following a number of set general principles (see Figure "Assembly method"). Only by adhering to
these principles can you ensure that all the components will fit together correctly, that the shelf self-aligns as required and that
any later addition or extension to the module can be attached with ease. For this reason, please familiarize yourself thoroughly
with this manual.
1Familiarize yourself with the conditions at the location where you want to assemble the module:
· Is the assembly area clean and free of obstacles?
· Is the position where you want to place the module suitable for it?
· Are there any unexpected elements getting in the way in the area (skirting boards, power switches, sockets,
piping, windows, etc.)?
2If it is not possible to guarantee that the module can be built as planned, then contact your client immediately!
3Before starting assembly, check carefully against the parts list that all components are have been delivered
correctly. If you are assembling several System 180 modules at the same time, open the packages for only one
module at a time.
4Familiarize yourself with the various parts of the module and sort them according to type and to what part of the
module they belong to.
5Start assembly at the lower left-hand corner of the module. It is particularly important to assemble the first node
of the module correctly, as any error will propagate throughout the entire assembly process. You will find instruc-
tions for the correct construction of the various types of nodes on the pages to follow.
6First complete the assembly of the lowest level of your shelving unit, and then work from bottom up and from left
to right.
!Please note that shelves from a certain height - if not otherwise agreed with the customer - require a wall moun-
ting (see chapter 12. Wall mounting)!
To conform to DIN FB 147, EN 14073 Parts 2 and 3, and EN 14074, you will need to fit wall fixings from the following heights.
1.1.1 Before you start …
1.1 Basic structure
This instruction manual is designed exclusively for the use of personnel already trained by
System 180. It is not recommended for untrained personnel to assemble 180 furniture.
All claims based on guarantee for furniture that has not been installed by personnel trained
by System 180 shall be null and void.

Standard bar (G) Standard bars are stainless steel tubes (20 x 1 mm) with flat-pressed ends and a pattern of
nodules embossed them. To help you to see the system size in which a standard bar has been made, it is pro-
vided with a marking consisting of G + the system size (for example: G360, G720, …). The standard bars form
the vertical and horizontal elements of the tube structure. Their length will depend on the height and width of
the module they form part of. The nodules embossed onto all components should always face outwards during
assembly. Note: From a module width of 810, horizontal bars are fitted with a pin to provide support to the
system base panels. Please make sure that you assemble the correct standard bars in the correct positions.
Diagonal bar (D) The system diagonal bar is a stainless steel tube (20 x 1 mm) with flat-pressed, angled
ends, each with embossed nodules facing outwards. The diagonal pieces are designed to provide stiffening
to the tubular structure where no side pieces are included in the module. The length of diagonal bars will vary
according to the height and depth of the module. There is a diagonal piece available for every system height
and depth in the range. The diagonal pieces are always positioned in system nodes directly adjacent to the
connecting bar. The nodules embossed onto all components should always face outwards during assembly.
Note: Diagonal bars are not required where side panels are used.
System washers System washers are steel washers (measuring 30 x 30 x 2 mm), each embossed with 4
nodules and a central hole (ø 8.5 mm). They are designed to provide a termination piece and compensating
element for each system node. On outermost nodes on a module they replace the standard pieces that
would otherwise be there. Where side panels are used, they are placed in the position where the diagonal
pieces would otherwise be placed. They are important in ensuring that the distance between all standard
bars is equal. The system washer is always positioned on the outermost position of its node. (Exceptions: feet
and casters). The nodules always face outwards during assembly. If the nodules are all aligned correctly, then all
components will automatically sit in the nodes at right angles to one another.
System bolts System bolts are button-headed cylindrical M8x50 bolts with 5-mm hex sockets. System bolts
are pushed through all the elements in each system node back to the connecting bar. As the bolt is tightened
up, the embossed nodules on each component are pressed together into one another, resulting in a structure
locked firmly into place. Tip: During assembly tighten each node up just enough so that the nodules grip
into one another. This will make assembly much easier and is important for when the time comes to insert the
system base components and any panelling.
Foot bases with level adjustment/foot brackets/casters Feet and casters are mounted on the out-
ward-most position of the node. The adjustment devices on foot bases are designed to allow the furniture
module to be levelled out using a spirit level and to even out any unevenness on the floor. Before assembly,
twist all height adjustment devices completely into the foot base to give yourself the maximum amount of initial
clearance possible. Tip: To ensure that you will be able to reach into the rearmost adjustment devices on the
module, we recommend adjusting the height of the unit before fully assembling all its components (before inser-
ting the bottom base panel in particular). Angled feet and casters provide no adjustment function to fine-tune
relative heights. On hard floors (on parquet flooring, for example), use felt gliders for this purpose instead.
Connecting bar (M) The connecting bar consists of a stainless steel tube (20 x 1 mm) with a threaded insert
(M8) pressed into it at each end. The connecting bars are used as the counterpieces for the system bolts
to firmly secure each system node together. Connecting bars run perpendicular to the front of the furniture
module, back to the depth the system structure. There is a connecting rod of suitable length available for
every system depth. Note: For all module depths of 780 and upwards, connecting bars are fitted with a
pin to provide support to the system bases. Please make sure that you assemble the right connecting bars in
the right positions. To ensure the result looks as it should, make sure while assembling that both ends of the
connecting rod look like a vertical "+" sign when looked at end on.

Note on assembly: To ensure that the distances between the vertical and horizontal bars on the front and rear of the shelving unit
are always uniform, install them in a sequence offset from one another (see the illustration below).
!Diagonals should always run downwards starting at the front and upwards from the back!
!Be careful to ensure that there is always an equal distance between the front and rear bars:
∙ dark blue to dark blue

The gaps in nodes left by parts that are not required on such nodes should be filled by system washers.
!Exception: For reasons of visual aesthetics, and because they are not required from a structural point of view, the system
washer in positions 1 can be dispensed with (see top rear nodes).
