Troubleshooting
Drawer does not slide smoothly
Check that the runners are perfectly parallel and level. Ensure no debris is obstructing the ball bearings. Verify the drawer is not overloaded beyond the 15 kg limit.
Drawer sticks or jams
Inspect for any obstructions or bent parts on the runner. Ensure the drawer box is square and not binding against the cabinet. Confirm correct alignment during installation.
Runners appear loose
Tighten the mounting screws securely. Ensure screws are appropriate for the material (wood, particleboard) and have adequate grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Measure and Mark: Determine the exact position for the runners on both the drawer box and the cabinet. Ensure parallel alignment.
Attach Runners: Securely fasten the runners to the marked positions using appropriate screws (not included). Ensure they are level and flush.
Install Drawer: Align the corresponding part of the runner on the drawer with the runner inside the cabinet and slide the drawer into place.
Compatibility:
These runners are designed for standard cabinet and drawer construction.
The 300mm length is suitable for drawers with an approximate internal depth of 300mm, allowing for clearance.
Ensure your drawer and cabinet sides provide sufficient space for the 27mm runner height.
Care:
Wipe clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
Periodically check for debris within the ball bearing channels and clear if necessary. A light application of silicone lubricant can maintain smooth operation if needed.
