Connection
Before the control box is connected to the main power supply, the individual
parts of this table must be connected as described below:
Step 1.
Motors (legs) must be connected with control cox using enclosed cables.
Step 2.
Handset must be connected with control box.
Step 3.
Control box must be connected to power supply.
Make sure to place the table on an equal leveled floor, or use adjusting
screws to level the frame. Make sure that all cords are long enough when the
frame is in both highest and lowest positions.
The control box is normally pre-assembled between the outer pipes,
underneath the table top. Handset is normally mounted underneath the table
top in a reachable distance for the user.
Getting Started
The rst time a table is assembled it must be reset before use.
How to Reset
Press and hold the up/down buttons on the handset at the same
time for 3 seconds.
Continue holding the buttons until both legs reach the lowest position.
When nished resetting, the handset will make a sound and the buttons can
be released.

How to Set a Memory Postion
Use the up and down buttons to adjust table to the desired height.
Hold the up button and the desired memory button (1, 2, 3 or 4) together
until it beeps and P1, P2, P3 or P4 is shown on the display screen.
How to Move Table to a Saved Position
Press and hold the memory button (1, 2, 3 or 4) until the table adjusts to the
saved position.
Anti-Collision Safety Feature
The control box for the upCentric table frame includes an anti-collision function
which may reduce damage to the table in the event of collision with a rm
object. When the table is raised/lowered, the power consumption of each leg is
monitored and compared to a predetermined value. If the power consumption
for the legs is increased relative to a predetermined value, the system assumes
that there is an obstruction (collision) and the table will stop and then run in the
opposite direction up to three inches.
The sensitivity of this anti-collision feature is dierent when moving downwards.
The anti-collision activates with an applied force of 45lbs (20kg) when moving
upward, or with an applied force of 85lbs (38.5kg) + weight of the tabletop and
what is placed on the table when moving downward.
Situations where the anti-collision is not activated :
• If the collision occurs during the reset operation.
• If the collision occurs within the rst 2 seconds after de-activating
the handset.
• If the collision occurs downwards and the load on the table
and what is placed on the desktop is less than 85lbs (38.5kg)
• If the collision is not with a solid object.
Energy Preserving Feature
When the upCentric table is left in position for more than 3 minutes, it will go
into standby mode in order to reduce energy consumption. When adjusting
your table after a dormant period, hold the up or down button to take table
out of standby mode.

Présentation
Avec la table ajustable en hauteur de la collection upCentricMC, les travailleurs
sédentaires peuvent aisément alterner dans la journée entre la position assise
et la position debout, ce qui contribue à réduire les maux de dos, diverses
douleurs musculaires, le stress et les tensions, sans compter que la circulation
sanguine s’en trouve améliorée.
Le réglage de la hauteur du plan de travail est intuitif avec les commandes
manuelles « Up » et « Down » qui sont d’utilisation facile. Les moteurs
silencieux enchâssés dans les colonnes du piètement permettent de
repositionner le plateau à diérentes hauteurs, avec rapidité et sans heurts.
Très solide, le piètement upCentric peut recevoir une variété de plateaux
de largeurs différentes, donnant ainsi la possibilité, à très peu de frais,
d’adapter la table aux besoins d’autres utilisateurs ou de locaux nouveaux. De
conception durable, ce châssis à structure ouverte ore un espace optimal
pour les genoux et de la place pour du rangement.
Informations importantes à retenir
• S’assurer d’avoir bien serré toutes les vis du châssis avant de l’utiliser
pour monter le poste de travail, surtout s’il a été déplacé ou transporté
dans un autre lieu.
• Le facteur de service est de 10 %; ceci signie que les colonnes du
châssis peuvent fonctionner pendant deux minutes en continu et
qu’elles seront ensuite arrêtées pendant 18 minutes au minimum.
• Capacité maximale de charge : 300 lb (136 kg), également répartis.
Veiller à ce que la charge supportée par chacune des colonnes
Assoyez-vous. Levez-vous.
La façon santé de travailler.

17
demeure inférieure à à 150 lb (68 kg), à défaut de quoi l’on risque de
les endommager de façon permanente pendant les manœuvres.
• Une fois que le câble du moteur est branché au boîtier des commandes
principales, les colonnes peuvent maintenir une force de verrouillage
susante pour supporter le plan de travail avec une charge maximale
de 300 lb (136 kg). Par contre, si le câble est endommagé ou débranché
du boîtier des commandes principales et si la charge au-dessus de l’une
ou l’autre des colonnes est supérieure à 150 lb (68 kg), le plan de travail
glissera vers le bas en l’espace de quelques heures.
• Veiller à ce qu’aucun obstacle (une personne ou un objet) n’entre en
contact avec la table lors de sa manœuvre, que ce soit vers le haut
ou vers le bas.
• Les cordons ou ls électriques endommagés doivent être remplacés
avant le branchement du câble d’alimentation principal.
• Maintenir un espace libre de ¾ po de rayon au minimum autour
du piètement et sous le plan de travail.
• La table upCentric n’a pas été conçue pour soulever des personnes.
• Éviter de tirer le plateau ou de le pousser
• Et éviter de lever le châssis en cours de réglage de la hauteur.
