FAQs
How many shelves does the R40 unit have?
The R40 bookcase features five fixed shelves for storage.
Can I adjust the height of the shelves?
No, the shelves are fixed as part of the structural design to ensure maximum stability.
What tools do I need for assembly?
A standard screwdriver is generally all that is needed to assemble the unit, alongside the included hardware.
Is this bookcase suitable for heavy books?
Yes, the particle board is durable, but it is recommended to place heavier items on the bottom shelves to maintain balance.
Does it need to be attached to the wall?
While it can stand independently on level ground, wall anchoring is recommended for safety, especially if you have children or pets.
What is the primary material?
The main frame and shelves are made from high-quality particle board, finished with ABS edges for durability.
Troubleshooting
The unit feels wobbly after assembly.
Ensure all cam locks are fully tightened and check that the unit is placed on a completely flat surface. Consider using shims if the floor is uneven.
Difficulty aligning the side panels.
Verify that all hardware components (dowels and cam screws) are fully inserted into their pre-drilled holes before tightening the locks.
Surface marks or scuffs.
Use a specialized furniture polish or a slightly damp cloth with a mild wood cleaner to gently buff out minor scuffs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly is straightforward; ensure you have a clear floor space and a screwdriver set ready before starting. Follow the provided manual sequentially, ensuring all cam locks are tightened firmly for maximum frame rigidity. Compatibility-wise, the oak finish pairs well with most wood or carpeted flooring types. For care, wipe the surfaces with a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth to remove dust. Avoid using abrasive chemicals or excessive water, as moisture can damage the particle board edges over time. Always ensure the bookcase is positioned on a level surface to prevent leaning.
