- Mobility: The workbench can be equipped with casters for easy movement. When stationary, the locking caster brakes should be set to prevent rolling.
- Stability: Leveling feet can be screwed into the leg assemblies to provide stability and proper leveling on uneven surfaces.
- Assembly: The guide provides a step-by-step assembly process, recommending two or more people due to the product's weight. It emphasizes finger-tightening fasteners initially and then securely tightening them with a 10 mm and 13 mm wrench, with a caution against overtightening.
- Safety Warnings: Numerous safety warnings are highlighted, including:
- DANGER: Do not stand on the product, do not move with drawers open/unlocked, do not mount on moving objects, do not open more than one drawer at a time.

Maintenance Features:
- Caster Maintenance: It is recommended to grease the casters annually using high-quality bearing grease.
