Parts List:
Installation Instructions: Preparing for assembly: Remove all items from the box and inspect all parts of the unit. Remove the plastic film from the glass shelves. Applying heat with a blow dryer or heat gun to the film helps remove it from the glass. Assembling the shelving unit: 1. Assemble the parts one at a time in the order shown. 2. The metal end plates (6) have a top and a bottom. Attach them so that the recessed screw holes in the center are facing outward. 3. When installing the protective plastic plates (5) make sure the flat side is towards the glass. 4. The rod (8) guides on the protective plates (5) fit into the aluminum sections (2,3,4). It is a very tight fit but once in place, it adds to the stability of the shelving unit. 5. Once fully assembled you can use the two included Allen wrenches(9) to tighten the top and bottom rod screws (7) at the same time. Once assembly is complete your shelving unit should look like as shown.
Pre-Drill Mounting Holes: Once you have determined where you would like to install your shelving unit you will need to pre-drill the holes for the wall plate. Please refer to the following table to determine the size of the pre-drilled hole and depth. Installation Option: Wood Stud Drywall Concrete Pre-Drill: 1/8" drill bit x 2" deep 5/8" drill bit x drywall depth 1/2" drill bit x 2" deep Note on Concrete Installation: For concrete installation it is required to use the plastic concrete anchors to provide maximum support for your installation. When drilling into concrete or masonry, you have to use a special masonry drill bit which you can purchase at your local hardware store. Using a standard drill bit will not penetrate the concrete and it will just dull your drill bit. It is not recommended to drill and mount into concrete block or mortar joints. If mounting into concrete or masonry we recommend using all of the supplied plastic anchors and lag bolts for maximum support. The supplied plastic anchors are rated for use up to 55LBS, but if you prefer you can go to your local hardware store and purchase metal concrete anchors. Installing the wall plate: To install your wall plate to the wall please refer to the following figures: 1. For wood stud installation see figure 3A. 2. For drywall installation see figure 3B. 3. For concrete installation see figure 3C.
Toggle Bolt Note: You must screw on the toggle bolt head before running the toggle into the wall. Note On Running Cables: You may find it easier to run some or all of your cables before attaching the shelving unit to the wall plate. Installing the shelving unit to the wall plate: Once the wall plate is installed and secure you can now install the shelving unit to the wall. To install the shelving unit to the wall simply take the shelving unit and set it onto the top of the wall plate. Next, screw in the two screws through the top of the shelving unit into the wall plate. Once both screws are inserted and tight, your installation is complete. ATTENTION: This mount must be installed using the supplied hardware with both lag bolts screwed into your stud, all four toggle bolts used in the drywall, or all four anchors used in the concrete or mortar for maximum support. If you are concerned about the stability of your installation please test before mounting expensive equipment.
