SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Throughout this manual you may find CAUTIONS and WARNINGS which are defined as follows:
• WARNING means that failure to follow the instruction may result in serious injury or death.
• CAUTION means that failure to follow the instruction may result in serious injury or damage to
property.
Read all of these safety instructions before assembling and installing the Music Library System.
! CAUTION
Make sure anyone
assembling or installing the
Music Library System has
read and understands this
manual.
! CAUTION
Failure to comply with
Warnings and Cautions in
this document can result in
damage to property or
serious injury.
! CAUTION
Always wear safety glasses
and gloves when assembling
or installing the Music Library
System.

BEFORE INSTALLATION
OVERVIEW
• This system should be installed only by skilled technical persons, and only after carefully studying
these instructions.
• These instructions assume that you will install the system next to a side wall (either side).
This is the preferred method.
• If there won’t be a wall on either side, you must (for safety) install a minimum of four shelving
units in a row.
• The installation site must be level - no more than 1 /4" variation in a 6' distance (in both directions).
• Do not install over carpeted floors that have a foam padding underneath
(because the shelving unit will be too hard to roll).
• The framework must be properly anchored to a rear wall and to the floor
(according to the instructions in this manual).
• For smooth operation, the framework must be assembled square with the rear wall and must be
plumb. Recheck carefully before securing the unit to the rear wall and floor.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
• Read the complete assembly procedure before beginning the assembly.
• The individual shelving units must be assembled and the feet attached to the guide frames before
they can be installed in the system.
If space is limited, it may be more convenient to assemble the guide framework and secure it to the
wall and floor — then assemble and install shelving units one at a time.
• Open one shipping carton at a time. Remove all items from the carton, and lay them out
approximately in their final position.

FASTENERS - NOT SUPPLIED
Because materials and construction of floors and walls can vary, fasteners for attaching the
Music Library System to the structure are not provided. The installer must choose the appropriate
fastener and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
! CAUTION
Inferior or improperly installed
fasteners could cause the
Music Library System to tip over.
Determine the construction of the walls and floor.
Wall Mounting Rail Fastener Guidelines:
For wood stud or metal stud walls covered with gypsum, use #10 or larger screws that will
provide a minimum of 2” of penetration into the stud. Self-drilling hex head screws are acceptable
and eliminate the need to drill a pilot hole. Each stud will require two screws. Consult Wenger
if the stud spacing is greater than 24”.
For masonry walls or block walls, concrete screws or expanding drive nail fasteners can be used.
Toggle bolts should be used when anchoring into hollow wall sections. Power driven fasteners
should not be used. Fasteners should be a minimum of 1 /4” diameter and 2” long.
Fasteners should be applied every 16” on center and within 4” of each end.
Guide Frame Floor Fastener Guidelines:
For floors with wood construction, attachment should be made with sheet metal screws or
lag screws that are #10 or larger and a minumum of 2” long. Self-drilling hex head screws are
acceptable and eliminate the need to drill a pilot hole. Each guide frame will require four fasteners.
For concrete floors, attachment should be made with concrete screws, expanding drive nails
or wedge type anchors. Fasteners should be a minimum of 1 /4” diameter and 2” long.
Each guide frame will require four fasteners.
Note: Each wall and floor connection must be rated for a minimum of 500 lbs of tension.
Other fasteners may be used if the connection strength requirement is met.

If less than four units will be installed, the Guide Frame Assemblies will be installed 16” apart
along the Wall Channel (33). Any excess Wall Channel will be cut off.
Each assembled Shelf Unit measures:
Closed position: 16” wide x 44” deep x 92” high (41 x 112 x 234 cm)
Open position: 16” wide x 80” deep x 92” high (41 x 203 x 234 cm).
2. Attach a Guide Frame Assembly to both ends of the Wall Channel (33) using
a 1 /4-20 x 1 3 /4” Capscrew (1) and a 1 /4” x 7 /8” Washer (2) through the top holes of the
Guide Frame Assembly.
