4. Step-by-step detailed operation guide
Step 1: Diagnose the problem
First, shake the table to determine the location of the abnormal noise, check whether the screws are complete, and use a level to detect the inclination of the tabletop (it is recommended to use a mobile APP level tool).
Step 2: Prepare tools
The basic tool kit should include: Phillips/slotted screwdriver set, rubber hammer, corner code (L-shaped metal piece), woodworking glue, and spare screws (it is recommended to prepare 10 pieces each for M4/M6 specifications).
Step 3: Specific operations
① Disassemble the problem part
② Clean up old glue stains and sawdust
③ Apply new glue (Taiguang Glue is recommended)
④ Install corner codes to strengthen the structure
⑤ Use a torque screwdriver to tighten in diagonal order.
Step 4: Test Adjustments
After completing the fixation, place a heavy object to test the stability. If it is a four-legged table, it is recommended to place coins under each leg to test the balance. You can fine-tune the table legs by grinding them or adding spacers.

6. Things to note
1. It is recommended to wax and reinforce the solid wood furniture to avoid direct contact with water-based glue.
2. Special shadowless glue is required for glass desktops, as ordinary glue will cause uneven light transmission
3. Children's desks should avoid exposed metal parts, and plastic corner codes can be used instead.
4. If it is difficult to repair by yourself, you can make an appointment for furniture repair services through Meituan and other platforms (the average fee is 80-150 yuan)
Recent popular cases show that the success rate of the double fixation method using "glue + angle code" is 92%. It is recommended to inspect furniture connectors every six months to prevent them in advance, which saves more time and effort than later maintenance.
