2) Slide in Desk Support Bracket.
3) Align outer screw holes with Desk Support Bracket, and insert 2 machine screws (E1) to each side of the leg.

STEP 3A: MOUNTING DESK TOP (with matching top from us)
Place desk top on a flat and non-abrasive surface with holes facing up. Carefully place assembled frame onto the desk
top. The frame is heavy. Two people are needed to move it and to turn the desk over after it is assembled. Align the
holes on the support brackets to those pre-installed anchors on the desk top if you are using the matching top from us.
Insert 3 machine screws (E5) into the mounting holes of each Support Bracket and only tighten them HALF-WAY.
1. Make adjustment to the two connecting bars in the mid-section of the beam by sliding them to the left or right and
make sure to center two mounting holes on the bars. Tighten 8 set screws (E3) that you installed in Step 2, and all 6
machine screws (E5) for the Support Bracket.
2. Use 2 wood screws (E2) to secure the Height Controller to the desk top edge. Please note that pilot holes are only
pre-drilled on the right side.
3. Use 3 wood screws (E2) to mount Control Box on the back side of the top. Three pilot holes are pre-drilled in the
mid-section behind the beam.
4. Use 4 wood screws (E2) to mount Cable Management Tray.
5. Optional: use 2 to 4 wood screws (E2) to secure two connecting bars to the top. Most users forgo this step.
STEP 3B: MOUNTING DESK TOP (with your own top)
1. Place the frame in the center of your own top and make adjustment to connecting bars. For best stability, the frame
should be centered with Support Brackets about 2” from the edge.
2. Use provided Wood Screws to secure the frame to your own top. If you are using own screws, please check the
length and make sure they do not go through the top.
3. Follow 1 to 5 under STEP 3A.
