How to fold an ironing board

Ironing is every person’s daily routine. Everyone uses the thing intended for this - an ironing board. It is indispensable during ironing because of its convenience and ease of use, perfectly flat surface and many more additional features. But what if the board is not going to?

How to assemble an ironing board

For many, it is the collection of an ironing board is the most unloved occupation. All due to the fact that decomposing it is elementary, and then returning it to its original form is not easy.

Most often, it is a misunderstanding of the operation of the fixation mechanism, because each model of the instrument has its own arrangement system. The most basic thing that needs to be done so that the ironing device is assembled is to lift it and pull one of the supports onto itself, as if assembling them together. In this case, the leg from the recess of the stop and the board is folded into one straight line. But it also happens that different models add up completely differently, the main thing here is to figure out which mechanism and order should be used.

How to assemble an ironing board depending on the model

T220r Soffiante is one of the most popular models. This is because it is an element assembled and disassembled, as well as with special properties and functions. In order to assemble this ironing table, you need to lower the board vertically, resting on a free leg.

Important! This leg should not be any of the two, namely the support for the boiler should be at the top.

Then you need to press the handle, while feeding the support leg inward. And voila, the device is assembled.

The next model in popularity is this. This is also a device with heating and other auxiliary functions. How to collect it? Everything is very simple.

  1. We pull out the cord from the outlet and carefully turn off.
  2. We hide the cord with the pedal in a place to store them.
  3. Then you need to pull out the height locks and very carefully lower the board to the floor.
  4. And the last, final, step, you need to fix the legs in the lock for safe transportation.

Important! The ironing board must be stored upright with the rounded side of the platform down.

And the latest in popularity model is. Also an electric device with all the advanced features (a recess for the iron, a hook for the iron, and so on). This ironing chair is assembled in the same way as the model presented above. It is very light and easy to assemble, layout, but the function of fixing in the folded state is not enough for her. The whole point is to bring the ironing tool to a vertical position and pull out the locks, or you just need to remove the leg to the side, freeing it from the stop, and carefully fold the “ironer”.

Why the ironing board does not fold

There may be many reasons for this, but several of them are the most common:

  • Broken legs. There is plenty of room for the reasons for this particular type of failure:
  1. The leg itself can bend and deform into an irregular and unnatural shape, which will prevent it from folding smoothly.
  2. The nail connecting the leg and the board, or the legs together or with a retainer. Anything that somehow fixes the elements of the ironing board may be the reason for the impossibility of its collection when they break. In this case, you need to carefully consider the place of failure and try to fix it.
  • Damage to the retainer.
  1. Here, the reason may be in the mount itself, fixing the device leg. If these are spring clips or an ironing table of a more advanced model, then this is much simpler, because the process of assembly and disassembly is very simple. If the device is of an older type, then there is a certain latch. Which fixes the board and does not allow it to move. Most often, in older models, this element was made either of metal or of wood. In the event of a breakdown of one or the other, both can be independently replaced at home. It is only necessary to choose the latch itself correctly.
  • Very often the ironer is not assembled correctly, this can also be one of the reasons for its breakdown. After the time of its improper operation, it may stop collecting due to cracks in the legs or because of the bent base of the board.
