Avoid temperature and moisture extremes. Keep units off the floor. Separate units with clean,dry spacers of uniform thickness aligned carefully.Use a minimum of three spacers for panels up to 8long and four or five spacers for longer panels. Avoid edge damage by carefully handling material. Before processing,allow panels to equalize to surrounding moisture and temperature conditions for a minimum of 72 hours. INSTALLATION REDI-SHELF shelving is simple to install.It is for interior use only and not for use in exterior applications or in damp locations. MAINTENANCE Except for unfinished particleboard,REDI-SHELF can be easily cleaned with warm water and mild soaps.Do not use cleaners containing abrasives,acids or alkalis.Over- sprays and adhesives are easily removed with solvents recommended for such use.Damaged or chipped Melamine shelves can be repaired in the same manner as a high-pressure laminate. MACHINING SAWING TIPS With the proper selection and maintenance of power cutting tools,REDI-SHELF can be easily machined. Carbide-tipped cutting tools are recommended for saw- ing,drilling,routing,joining,fastening and edge-machin- ing.Remember: a portable 7-1/4saw will chip the upper side of the panel (saw face down),and a table or radial-arm saw will chip the bottom edge (saw face up). In all instances,the saw should be maintained so as to ensure low vibration and smooth runout,clean collars, and sharp,properly ground teeth. CODE AGENCY & ASSOCIATION APPROVAL A neutral third-party environmental testing and certification organization,audits our manufacturing process to verify that Roseburg particleboard is produced from 100% pre-consumer wood fiber.
