As background for this platform is suitable carpet. When you are screwing two pieces of wood, the wood screwed through the first ever drilled! Use a drill that is larger than the screw diameter. If you need a flush surface, you have to use all screw heads are sunk.

Platform to build, step by step
1. Show the Chipboard (see the Material list item) and the OSB (6-9) in the construction market the measurements accordingly.

2. Screw the first Shelves (1) as in the enclosed installation instructions manual.

3. To Stage manufacture, screw the parts 6-9 as shown (the stage has no base plate).
To do this, 4 x 50 screws and apply glue to the joints. Spackle the screw heads with filler. Then you sand all surfaces smooth and round off the edges.

4. Now the stage, a longitudinal support (2) and one of the transverse support (3) with Genius Pro floor sealing wax. These two columns (2 and 3) serve later as a back wall for the shelves (1). Grinding them after drying smooth with fine sandpaper and apply the paint a second time.The substructure. Well, the Substructure screwed.

5. First mount - flush with the top edges - finally all six cross (3) a connection bar (5). At these bars later, the shoes (10) is attached. (Figure 1)

6. Then screw the unpainted longitudinal support (2) with an unpainted transverse support (3).
Back off that angle from the wall, so you may well still play with the cordless screwdriver. (Figure 2)

Tip:
On the floor panels, you can easily move carpets or laminate. All you need in the final stage of Rails - Information can be obtained in the marketplace. If you want to mount on the wall sides on the bottom surface (10) baseboards. In step 9, you can cut at first all the platforms (10), then paint and finally fix, then you need are masked and can not paint outdoors.

7. Now screw the Longitudinal supports (2) with the Transverse support (3). Use on the outside of the angle connector (12) with the 3.5 x 16 mm screws.
To determine the distance between the transverse support (3), set the struts (4) in between.
Screw these roughly centered and offset from one another as shown with 4 x 50 screws.

8. Back the Stand in the corner of the room and fasten it with screws and anchors on the walls. Remove any skirting must be removed.
Then Attach the shelves (1) to the outer longitudinal (2) and transverse support (3). Inserting the shelves (1) at the points at the base and mark the positions of the shelves.
Back of the shelves again, before drilling in the appropriate places, slide the shelves up and unscrew it from the inside of the frame, as shown 8 fixed with 4 x 50 screws. Procedure then exactly the step Sun
Laying of floor space

9. Well, the Soil surface (10) laid. Saw this in parallel from a Laying the two edges of the groove at a distance of about 15 mm, so that a straight edge is created. For this use a circular saw with a guide rail. Screw this plate on the front right corner, as shown with 4 x 40 screws on. Then measure the distance to the left to the wall, Saw a corresponding piece on the next Flooring and cut off the tongue as in the first plate. Saw all the other plates one after another right to challenge always a groove and a spring fits together.
When lowering the last two plates place a piece of cardboard or the like before the wall, so it will not be damaged. Tighten all the shifting plates of the connecting strip (5) and fill in where appropriate, the screw heads.

10. To Soil surface (10 to paint), Stick around all the edges off and then carry on Genius Pro floor sealing wax. After drying, grind back the surface smooth with fine sandpaper and apply the paint a second time.
