5. ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
A. First lay out all components and hardware to ensure that you have all the parts listed on the
components list. Then slide Crossbar Center Rails (Part #4) out of Crossbar Ends (Part #3).
Turn Legs (Part #1) and Crossbar End (Part #3) on their sides.
Line up the holes on each Leg (Part #1) with the holes on each Crossbar End (Part #3).
B. IMPORTANT! DO NOT TIGHTEN SCREWS IN THIS STEP, ONLY INSERT THEM AND
ROTATE 3 TIMES. YOU WILL TIGHTEN IN STEP D.
Insert qty 4 Machine Screws (Part #10) through the 4 holes of each Crossbar End (Part #3)
going into the Leg (Part #1). Using the Allen Wrench, rotate each screw ONLY 3 times.
Do the same thing for the third leg as well.
C. IMPORTANT! DO NOT TIGHTEN SCREWS IN THIS STEP, ONLY INSERT THEM AND
ROTATE 3 TIMES. YOU WILL TIGHTEN IN STEP D.
Line up the 2 holes on the Side Brackets (Part #5) with the Crossbar End and Leg assembly
from the previous step.
Insert qty 2 Flat Head Screws (Part #14) through the
2 holes of the side bracket (Part #5) going into the
Crossbar End/Leg Assembly. Using the Allen Wrench,
rotate each screw ONLY 3 times.
This will end up being
the top side of the desk.
If you drop a screw inside the Crossbar
End, simply tilt to retrieve the screw.
If you are having trouble getting
all the screws started, it is
because other screws are too
tight. You will need to back out some
screws in order to loosen the tolerance.
Do not tighten machine screws
yet, only rotate each 3 times.

5. ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
D. Once all of these screws have been started, you can now tighten the qty 6 Flat Head Screws
(Part #14) from Step C and the qty 12 Machine Screws (Part #10) described in Step B (18
screws in total).
E. The Crossbar Center Rails (Part #4) are optional. They provide more stability but if not
needed they can be skipped during installation or removed later. Slide Crossbar Center Rails
(Part #4) back into Crossbar Ends (Part #3). Ensure that the slots of the Crossbar Center Rails
are facing inward.
F. Attach each foot (Part #2) with qty 4 Machine Screws (Part #10)
and tighten bolts in a cross pattern.
G. Your desktop may or may not be pre-drilled. Please check both sides of the desktop before
placing the desk base on it for pre-drilling! Carefully place the upside down desk base on the
underside of the desktop.
Note: minimum top size: 110 cm (43”) wide x 60 cm (23.5”) deep.
Adjust the width of the base to fit the desktop by sliding the two halves outward.
101 cm (40”) to 181 (71”) max.
Place the base where you want it. Some will want the frame to be
all the way to the edge of the desk. We recommend leaving at least
5 cm (2”) of desktop width (on each side) protruding beyond
the frame width.
Do the same for the third leg as well.
If your desktop has an extension piece, orient the desk
base so that the two legs connected by the cross-bar
are attached to both pieces of the desktop

Center the frame by using the desktop edge as a
reference. Measure to the metal brace.
Do not use the screw holes as a point of reference

5. ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
H. Secure the Center Rails at both ends using qty
8 Grub Screws (Part #11), qty 4 per side.
I. Double-check that the base is centered on the underside of the desktop and is located where
you want it. Also, double-check that the included wood screws are not too long for your
desktop and screwed all the way in.
Now Proceed with securing the desk base to the
desktop using qty 15 of the Pan Head Screws
(Part #12)
Install as follows:
4 per Side Bracket (left, right, and 1-leg assembly)
1 per Crossbar End (left, right, and 1-leg assembly)
J. IN THIS FOLLOWING STEP, DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN SCREWS. OVER TIGHTENING
COULD CAUSE THE PLASTIC ON THE COMPONENTS TO BREAK.
Use qty 2 of the Pan Head Screws (Part #12) to attach the
Control Box (Part #6). Ensure enough clearance at the wire
ports for cable connections.
Never use countersunk screws to fasten into the
desktop. This will cause much greater stress on
the desktop. Ensure that any screw used will not
puncture through the desktop surface or otherwise
damage the material.
We recommend that you pre-drill any holes
needed for fasteners connecting the Control Box
to the top. This will make it easier to attach the
screws and will greatly lessen the stress caused by
driving a screw into the desktop material
Never use countersunk screws to fasten into the
desktop. This will cause much greater stress on
the desktop. Ensure that any screw used will not
puncture through the desktop surface or otherwise
damage the material.
Ensure that the screw hits the metal center
rail by sliding the center rail as needed.
We recommend that you pre-drill any holes
needed for fasteners connecting the base to the
top. This will make it easier to attach the screws
and will greatly lessen the stress caused by driving a
screw into the desktop material.
NOTE: PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOUR DESKTOP
DOES NOT ALREADY HAVE HOLES BY CHECKING
BOTH SIDES (prior to drilling).

5. ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS (continued)
K. IN THIS FOLLOWING STEP, DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN SCREWS. OVERTIGHTENING
COULD CAUSE THE PLASTIC ON THE COMPONENTS TO BREAK.
Place the Handset (Part #7) so the front of the
Handset runs flush with the desktop edge. The
Handset can be placed anywhere along the
front edge of he desk, but we recommend
placing it near the side so it doesn’t interfere
with your chair or legs when seated.
Use qty 2 of the Pan Head Screws (Part #12)
to attach the Handset (Part #7) to the desktop.
L. Connect the Wires as per the diagram below.
Use the adhesive-backed Cable Clips (Part #13)
to secure the Connecting Wires, so they don’t sag.
M. Turn the assembled desk right-side-up. With two people grab the desk by the base (not the
desktop) and turn the desk right-side-up. Adjust the Leveling Studs (Part #8) on the Feet (Part
#2) as needed.
N. Plug the Power cord into a 110V outlet.
IMPORTANT!
You must RESET the desk prior to use:
Press and hold the DOWN button on the
Handset (Part #7) until the desk reaches its
lowest height. Release the DOWN button.
Press and hold the DOWN button again for
about 10 seconds until the desk lowers a little
bit more, slightly rises and stops. Release the
DOWN button.
Your desk is now ready to use.
To program up to 4 presets: Use the up/down buttons to find a desired height then press “M”
followed by a number 1-4.
MAKE SURE NO OBSTACLES ARE IN THE DESK’S PATH.
MAKE SURE ALL CORDS ARE OF A LENGTH THAT WILL
ACCOMMODATE THE CHANGE IN HEIGHT.
