Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This set is designed for direct use. Ensure you have the appropriate tools for creating slots for biscuits or holes for dowels and screws, as per standard woodworking practices. For the SX Plus plugs, drill a hole of the specified diameter for the plug size. Insert the plug into the hole; it should sit flush or slightly recessed. Then, insert the screw, utilizing the pre-fixing wings if applicable for overhead applications, and tighten securely.

The SX Plus plugs are specifically designed for use in solid building materials such as concrete, sand-lime brick, and masonry. Compatibility with screws depends on the chosen screw size and type, ensuring it matches the plug's requirements for optimal performance.
Care: The ProfiBox itself is made of high-quality, impact-resistant plastic and can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Store the box in a dry environment to prevent corrosion of any metal components (screws, etc.) if included separately. Ensure the lid is securely closed to protect the contents from dust and debris.
