Help! Does anyone know if you can disassemble a Hemnes wardrobe? I'm having trouble with those funny screw things (part no 102509, with the plus and minus signs on them and an arrow showing the direction to tighten), and I don't want to force anything as I try to unscrew them. Can they be unscrewed? Can the whole thing be taken down? Hope to hear from someone. Thanks.

The cams (the little things with the plus and minus) should have the arrow pointing to the edge closest, which means it is unlocked. Most IKEA stuff uses the cams and bolts along with some wood pegs to hold adjacent sides together, so they should come apart with a good bang. Use a rubber mallet. Then the side should slip off, unless of course, someone used glue on the wood dowels.
