Parts and Tools Two side panels, a top, a bottom, a back panel and the fittings, laid out on a blanket so the panels do not get scratched\. You need a flat screwdriver, a cross\-head screwdriver and a spirit level\. Tap a part to see its name\. The wall screws are not included: choose screws and plugs that suit your wall\. The shelf holders and the screws 116637 and 114667 are for an extra shelf or for joining two frames, and are not used here\. ### 2. 1 · First Foot Lay the bottom panel on the blanket, outer face up\. Screw an adjustable foot into one of the four holes by hand, clockwise, until it stops\. ### 3. 1 · Other Three Feet Screw in the other three feet the same way, one near each corner\. ### 4. 2 · Turn Both Over Turn the bottom panel over so it stands on its feet, and turn the top panel over so its inner face is up\. ### 5. 2 · First Dowel Screw a dowel into a hole near one end of the bottom panel with the cross\-head screwdriver, clockwise, until its collar sits on the panel\. Do not use a drill\. ### 6. 2 · Other Seven Dowels Screw in the other seven dowels the same way: four in each panel, two near each end\. ### 7. 3 · Sides on Edge Stand both side panels on their back edges, inner faces towards each other, the grooves at the bottom\. ### 8. 4 · Top On Push the top panel onto the ends of the sides, so its four dowels go into the holes in their edges\. ### 9. 4 · First Cam Lock Put a cam lock into the round hole inside a side panel, next to a dowel\. Turn it clockwise with the flat screwdriver until it locks the dowel\. ### 10. 4 · Other Three Cam Locks Fit and turn the other three cam locks at the top the same way\. ### 11. 5 · Back Panel Slide the back panel into the grooves of the sides and the top from the open end, white side in, until it meets the top\. ### 12. 6 · Bottom On Push the bottom panel onto the other ends of the sides, so its dowels go into their holes and the back panel goes into its groove\. ### 13. 7 · Four Cam Locks Fit four cam locks at the bottom and turn each one clockwise with the flat screwdriver\. ### 14. 8 · Stand It Up With a helper, tip the frame up onto its feet and turn it so the open front faces the room\. ### 15. 8 · Wall Brackets Press a wall bracket onto each side panel at the top, behind the back panel: its two pins go into the holes and the round boss points to the wall\. ### 16. 9 · Level It Put the spirit level on the top\. Turn the feet with the hex key from inside the frame, or by hand, until the frame stands level and does not rock\. ### 17. 10 · Against the Wall For a wall without a skirting board: move the frame against the wall where it will stand\. The frame must be fixed to the wall so it cannot tip over\. ### 18. 10 · First Wall Screw Put a washer on a wall screw, domed side out, and drive it through the bracket into the wall with the cross\-head screwdriver\. Wall screws and plugs are not included\. Use ones that suit your wall\. ### 19. 10 · Second Wall Screw Fix the other bracket the same way, with a washer and a wall screw\. ### 20. 10 · Cover Caps Slide a cover cap over each washer from the side until it clicks\. The frame is ready\. ### 21. 11 · With a Skirting Board For a wall with a skirting board, the brackets get spacers instead\. Here the frame goes back to the blanket without the screws, washers and caps of step 10\. ### 22. 11 · Two Spacers Screw a spacer onto the boss of each wall bracket, clockwise, as far as it goes\. ### 23. 12 · Spacers Out From behind, turn both spacers anticlockwise by hand until they stand out about as far as the skirting board is thick\. ### 24. 12 · Against the Wall Move the frame back until its bottom touches the skirting board and both spacers touch the wall\. Turn a spacer a little further if the frame leans\. The frame must be fixed to the wall so it cannot tip over\. ### 25. 13 · First Wall Screw Put a washer on a wall screw, domed side out, and drive it through the bracket and its spacer into the wall, as in step 10\. Wall screws and plugs are not included\. Use ones that suit your wall\. ### 26. 13 · Second Wall Screw Fix the other bracket the same way, with a washer and a wall screw\. ### 27. 13 · Cover Caps Click a cover cap onto each washer from the side\. The frame is ready\.
