Step-by-step assembly

Step 1 · manual step 1–2
Screw 3 runners (CR) onto the divider, turn it over, then 3 runners (CL).
9 screws (10047245) on each face.

Step 2 · manual step 3
Hang the divider on the top panel and press it down until it clicks.

Step 3 · manual step 4
Screw 3 runners onto the inside of each side panel.
CL on one side, CR on the other — 9 screws (10047245) each.

Step 4 · manual step 5
Hang both side panels on the ends of the top panel.
Press them down until they click.

Step 5 · manual step 6–7
Lay the back panel in. Push the bottom panel on until it clicks.
The back panel’s edges rest in the rebates of the sides.

Step 6 · manual step 8–9
Drive in 2 screws (105251) with the hex key.
Then push 2 inserts (10075558) into the back panel and press a pin (10051084) into each.

Step 7 · manual step 10
Join the 2 leg frames with the 2 rails — 4 bolts (10003283).
Use the hex key. The frame is upside down.

Step 8 · manual step 11
Roll the carcass onto its top. Fix the leg frame with 4 bolts (10120564).

Step 9 · manual step 12
Screw the 4 feet (10121698 + 10114605) into the legs, then turn it upright.

Step 10 · manual step 13–14
Fit 2 wall fittings (150688) at the back, then 8 fittings (10093081).
Press a pin (10093082) into each of the 8 fittings.

Step 11 · manual step 15–16
Push 4 dowels (101345) into the strip, then press it down at the back.

Step 12 · manual step 17
Push 4 inserts (10075558) into the bottom and press in 4 pins (10051084).

Step 13 · manual step 18
Check it is level. Adjust the 4 feet with the spanner (190459).

Step 14 · manual step 19–21
Mark the 2 holes on the wall, move the dresser away and drill.
Ø 8 mm, push in the plugs (10087223). Solid wood: Ø 3 mm, no plugs — see the manual.

Step 15 · manual step 22
Push it back. Screw it to the wall through both fittings.
2 screws (109572) with washers (126916).

Step 16
Now the 6 drawers.
All six are the same — we build one step by step.

Step 17 · manual step 23–24
Click both sides onto the drawer front, then slide the bottom down the grooves.

Step 18 · manual step 25–26
Press the wire fitting (10040242) into the back, then fit the back.
It goes between the sides, over the bottom.

Step 19 · manual step 27
Push in 4 cam dowels (159553), then 4 cam locks (117434).
Turn the cam locks clockwise.

Step 20 · manual step 28
Turn the drawer over. Screw on the runners DL and DR — 6 screws (10047245).

Step 21 · manual step 29
Fit the knob (10109447) with the screw (119976) from the inside.
Use a screwdriver — not a drill.

Step 22 · manual step 23–29
Build the other 5 drawers the same way.

Step 23 · manual step 30
Slide the 6 drawers in on their runners.
Open only one drawer at a time.
Tips & safety
- Always fix the dresser to the wall. Children have died from furniture tip-over. Use the wall fittings supplied — the right plugs depend on your wall.
- Open only one drawer at a time. Put the heaviest things in the lowest drawers. Never put a TV on this dresser, and never let children climb or hang on it.
