ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
1. Lay out all components and hardware to ensure that you have everything listed on Page 5.
2. The desk weighs over 100 lbs. Two people are needed to turn or move desktop and some components.
When turning or moving the assembled desk, grab it by SUPPORT BRACKETS (not the desk top).
3. Assemble on soft and non-abrasive surface to avoid scratch or damage to the desk top.
STEP 1
Use 5mm Allen wrench to secure foot to column with four Screw A (M6x16mm) on each side.
STEP 2
Use 4mm Allen wrench to secure top support bracket to beam with two Screw D (M6x20mm) on each side.
Note: The Illustrated beam placement allows controller to be on the right side of the desk. If you prefer
controller to be on the left, turn the beam (only) 180° so the two mounting holes for the control box will be on
the left instead. Pre-drilled holes are only available for controller to be installed on the right. You will need to
drill two holes yourself if you want to install the controller on the left.

STEP 3
Turn assembled beam over. Insert assembled lifting columns from Step 1 into the beam.
STEP 4 (VERY IMPORTANT. READ CAREFULLY)
On the inner side of beam, there are eight holes – two for each locking lever. Each lifting column is to be
secured by two locking levers.
Each locking lever has a long and a short handle. The short handle is to be inserted into the holes on the inner
side of the beam. Insert the end that is away from long handle first, and slide the other end into the hole on the
opposite side. Please make sure the long handle is on your LEFT side when facing the lifting column.

Elite Series Assembly Guide 8 |Page
STEP 4 – CONT’D
With both ends of the short handle into the holes, push the long handle with your hand toward the lifting
column. You should feel some pressure while pushing it down. Once the long handle is flush with the beam,
use a tool such as a flat-head screwdriver to push it further down. If no pressure is felt while pushing one or
both handles down, check whether the top support bracket is installed and secured properly, and whether the
long handle is on the left.
Each lifting column requires two L-shaped levers to be properly secured. The two L-shaped levers, when
installed correctly, should form a tight lock and secure the lifting columns to the beam. It is normal that you feel
more pressure on one handle than the other when pushing them down. Make sure the levers DO NOT WIGGLE
or DO NOT FEEL LOOSE. If they do, the levers are either defective or not properly installed.
STEP 5
Use Phillips screwdriver to secure control box with two Screw C on one side and one Screw C on the other.
On one end of control box, there are four ports – two for motor cables and two for controller. On the opposite
end, there is only one socket for power cord. If you want controller to be installed on the right side of desk,
make sure the 4-port end is the on right side as well. If you want controller to be on the left side, make sure
that you place the beam according to the note in Step 2 and the 4-port end of control box is on the left. Please
note that there are two pre-drilled holes for controller on the bottom of right side desk top, not on the left side

STEP 6
This step is a two-person job. Carefully move the assembled frame onto desk top.
Align the holes on the support brackets to those pre-installed anchors on the top. Secure each side with three
Screw A (M6x16mm).
Use a Philips screwdriver to secure controller to the pre-drilled holes on the bottom of the top with two Screw E
(ST4.2x17mm).

STEP 7
Connect both motor cables to the control box.
Connect controller cable to either plug on the control box.
Connect one end of power cord to the control box, and do not connect the other end to an 110V outlet yet.
With two people, grab the assembled desk by SUPPORT BRACKETS (not desk top) and turn the desk over to
upright position. Adjust leveling studs on the feet as needed.
STEP 8
Motors must be initialized before your first use.
Connect power cord to an 110V outlet. Press and hold the DOWN button from the controller. The lifting
columns will make a short downward motion and reach their lowest position. They will back up slightly and
then stop. This completes the initialization and synchronization process. Your desk is now ready to use.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Issues(s)
Solution
Desk does not go up or down.

control box and a power outlet. Make sure that you are pressing
DOWN button not UP button when initializing the desk.

Columns do not go up evenly.
Re-initialized desk. Contact tech support if the problem persists.
Desk wobbles pretty excessively.
It is normal that desk wobbles slightly at standing height. Make
sure all the screws are tightened and adjust leveling studs.
