Message from the Inventor

Dear Rest-A-Desk User,

Congratulations on your purchase of Rest-A-Desk! I designed this device to

help alleviate and prevent back pain for computer users, although this

accommodation will certainly be of comfort to anyone.

A few things to remember when using Rest-A-Desk:

1. Make sure the unit is properly setup before use. In order to ensure your

painless experience from purchase to use, we have contracted with SPAR,

Inc. to provide free nationwide professional on-site setup of your Rest-A-

Desk. After your order ships, you will receive your shipment tracking

number and where to call to schedule the no-charge unpacking and Rest-A-Desk setup.

2. Chronic back pain is made worse by inactivity. The first thing a back doctor will tell you is, “Try to keep moving.” Fear

avoidance is when someone avoids situations that they fear will aggravate their symptoms.1As pain and fear are

embraced, activity decreases, mobility and pain tolerance are reduced,2and the sufferer’s condition can tumble into

chronicity and disability.3

You can be proactive about your pain by being as active as possible, which may only mean getting out of your bed

or chair once an hour to move/walk a little. This can prevent your muscles from stiffening up, and will make your

computing with Rest-A-Desk more pleasant as well.

3. Take care in following all instructions and warnings. Failure to do so will void the product warranty and seller’s

liability.

4. To prevent neck or eye strain, please take note of the ergonomic suggestions on p. 25 regarding the optimal

adjustment of your monitor.

5. The first word in Rest-A-Desk is “rest.” In order to fully enjoy the design benefits of Rest-A-Desk, train yourself to

relax into your chair/bed and headrest/pillow. Adjust Rest-A-Desk so that you can both (a) reach your keyboard

comfortably (while resting your arms is ideal); and (b) view your monitor comfortably, without being tempted to raise

your head or neck off your pillow/headrest. Let gravity be your friend. Periodically adjusting your angle of recline

(don’t forget to also readjust your keyboard and monitor!) is also a good way to give your back a break.

6. Because your pain relief is our mission, we offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. This way, you have time to enjoy

your Rest-A-Desk and still contact us if there is anything that we can do to exceed your expectations with Rest-A-

Desk.

Did you know?

A. Customers are more likely to tell friends about bad experiences than good experiences

B. A company’s true brand reputation comes from how they address customer concerns

Before sharing your opinion on Rest-A-Desk with others (in person or online), please kindly give us a chance to

resolve any of your concerns with ordering, product, or service.4You can reach me directly at

custserv@restadesk.com (please put Jeff in the subject line).

Cheers,

Jeff S. Gauer, Ph.D.

Do not position the arm or mounted keyboard above a patient. Note that the arm has a wide range of motion both up/

down and side to side. Please consider carefully the proximity of the mounting assembly to other furniture, equipment,

and the user. If being used in a medical setting, we recommend that risk management personnel verify that the

application is appropriate prior to installation and use of the arm.

Before the arm is mounted to the column, verify that the channel has been installed and approved in accordance with

the column installation guide.

Ensure that the weight of the keyboard tray and keyboard being mounted are

within the weight limit of the arm - 10 lbs (4.5kg).

Do not use power tools to make any adjustments on the keyboard arm.

The mounted keyboard or arm may move suddenly due to normal wear or improper adjustment of the tilt and swivel

functions (see Sections 6.4 and 6.5), improper counterbalance (Section 6.1) or ultimately, gas spring end of life. The

gas spring has a limited life span and will lose some strength over a long period of time. The arm should be inspected

and maintained at least once a year. This inspection must include the steps outlined in Section 6.0.

Due to risk of personal injury or damage to the equipment, the arm housing must never be disassembled by non-

manufacturer personnel. Failure to comply comply will void the product warranty and the supplier's liability.

Note that the arm has a wide range of motion both up/down and side to side. Please consider potential pinch points

that may cause personal injury.

Remove the keyboard and/or keyboard tray only when the arm is at the highest position. Due to the counter balance

function, the arm may naturally rise to the highest position when weight is removed. This can happen suddenly if the

weight is removed at any height other than the highest point.

5.0 Adjusting the Arm

Caution: Before the RADKA arm is properly adjusted, be sure the weight of the keyboard and tray on the arm can be

supported while making adjustments. Use more than one person if required. Some of the following pictures do not

show the mounted keyboard for detail purposes.

Installation Note: Adjustments are factory pre-set for a keyboard and tray weighing approximately 7.3 lbs. (3.3kg).

Adjustments to counterbalance, friction, tilt tension and pivot tensions may all be required to achieve a proper

installation. Detailed instructions for making adjustments follow in the sections below. When properly adjusted the arm

will maintain position throughout the height range and can be positioned safely and with a desired feel throughout the

full range of motion. Refer to the Routine Maintenance Check List , section (9), for a quick guide to these functional

checks.

See p. 6 for instructions on mounting your RADKT to your keyboard arm.

1/8” Hex Wrench

Installation Note: The arm is designed to maintain position

throughout the height range, while providing resistance to the

approximately 10 to 20 lbs of downward force that is applied when the

user rests their wrists on the tray while typing. This resistance is

provided by increasing friction within the arm.

Friction Adjustment: Before starting the friction adjustment, first

remove the additional 5 lbs of weight placed on top of the keyboard –

but be careful because the arm will rise up when the weight is

removed. Using a 1/8” hex wrench, tighten (clockwise) the friction

adjustment screw to approximately 15-30 in-lbs. Do not over-tighten

the friction adjustment screw. The friction is correctly adjusted when

the arm will stay located at any position throughout the height range,

and the user can comfortably rest their wrists on the keyboard tray

without the arm moving in the downward direction.

Friction Adjustment

Screw

Counterbalance RADKA with Extension Counterbalance

Counterbalance Adjustment –Before re-setting the counterbalance,

first use a 3/4" socket wrench to loosen (clockwise) the friction

adjustment screw (lower right view) until the washer under the screw

spins freely. Do not remove the adjustment screw. Place approximately

5 lbs additional weight on top of the mounted keyboard tray (shown

below), then grasp the tray and move the arm to a level horizontal

position. Using a 1/8” hex wrench, tighten (clockwise) or loosen

(counter clockwise) the adjustment screw. The adjustment screw is

located under the center pivot point on the RADKA Arm with Extension.

Counterbalance is correctly adjusted when the mounted keyboard tray

with keyboard and the extra 5 lbs weight can be moved up or down with

minimal force and does not rise or fall after releasing the arm. The full

range of adjustment is approximately 18 turns.

5.1

5.2

Rest-A-Desk, LLC, 19777 N. 76th St., Ste. 1155, Scottsdale, AZ 85255 USA restadesk.com

Folding Tension Adjustment –If the keyboard tray becomes difficult

to fold up into the vertical position, or will not maintain the folded up

position, then adjust the folding tension. Start by removing both

protective caps covering the folding tension adjustment bolt. Using a

1/2" (13mm) wrench on each end of the bolt and nut assembly, tighten

or loosen the folding tension adjustment bolt until the desired folding

tension is achieved. Replace the protective caps when done.
