Assembly & Storage
L-Bracket
Once the back frame is installed, insert the long side of the L-bracket into the top center of the frame. It stores with the short side of the “L” flat against the wall or door. To use, insert the short end of the L-bracket into either the top or bottom position in the center of the frame. The top position accommodates longer garments.
Garment Bars
Snap each teardrop-shaped end cap into one end of each garment bar. The end cap is provided to protect your garments from snags when inserting the garment bar into the sleeve or leg or your garment. The garment bars store “end cap up” by snapping into the two rows of bar clips along the bottom of the back frame. To use, insert the end of the bar (without the end cap) into each side of the slide connector, which slides onto the L-bracket. The bar can be inserted into the slide connector with the rounded side up to prevent creasing the garment. If a crease is desired, insert the bar with the pointed side up.
Collar Stays
The collar stays are designed to help the collar hold its proper shape. To store, slide the stays over the 2 posts that are located at the top of the back frame. To use, slide the collar stays onto the garment bars from the open end of the bar with the stay slanted toward the center so that the collar’s shape will be supported. Once the garment has been hung on the bars and inserted into the slide connector, adjust the collar stays by sliding them to provide adequate support to your collar.
Installation
Hang On a Door
nsert the metal door hooks into the slots in the top of the back frame so that the flaps face the back of the frame. Holding the frame securely, keep pushing on each hook until you hear two snaps. If it becomes necessary to remove the hooks, place the frame face down on a flat surface and insert a small screwdriver through the openings on the back of the frame. Press firmly to release the flap and pull out the hook.
Mount On a Wall
o mount your Shape & Dry directly on a wall, use the enclosed auger anchors. Locate a wall stud and make sure there is enough clearance on either side to accommodate the extended bars. Hold the back frame on the wall with the bottom mounting hole centered directly over the stud. Be sure that the frame is level and use a pencil to mark the location of the tops of the 3 holes on the wall. Secure the 2 auger anchors in to the top 2 holes, then insert 2 screws into the anchors and 1 directly into the stud, leaving a half inch gap between the wall and the head of the screw. Mount the frame onto the screws by sliding it down until the top of the mounting holes are resting on the screws. Lightly tighten the screws until they are close to the frame, but still loose enough so the Shape & Dry unit can be easily removed if necessary.
