Universal Assembly Instructions
In practice, all SMARTdesks assemble
using the same approach. They dier in
whether they are a simple desktop, a
ipIT® desktop, or at panel FP Series
desktop with monitor port and shelf. The
Newpath latop desks have contoured
panels and tops, but the approach to
assembly is the same, using Conrmat
Screws for assembling the cabinets and
Lamello Cabineo
surface connectors for attaching the top
to the base cabinets.
These instructions were photo illustrated
with the FI Series ipIT® models. It will
show the keyboard/mouse trays being
installed at an early stage when gravity is
your friend. If your specic desk does not
include a keyboard/mouse tray, please
disregard. This would be true for desks
with the ipIT Laptop Safe®.
You will note that the main dierence
between the single and the double is
the additonal CPU bay. The approach to
assembly is the same for both models.
These instructions will emphasize the
double.

Tools Required
• Screw gun
• 4mm hexagon bit for Conrmats (provided)
• 4mm ball head hexagon bit for Lamello Cabineo
surface connectors (provided)
Pre-Assembly:
Use a furniture blanket to prepare a safe workspace
for nished surfaces.
Install Lamello Cabineo Surface Connectors
The milled locations are easy to identify. Simply tap
the surface connectors into these locations with a
hammer. Avoid full power pounding!!
The tip of the screw ships“proud”which enables
easy assembly.
The diagram shows how the surface connector
works. The 4mm ball end hexagon bit is used with a
screw gun to make the surface connection. The ball
end is used because the access to the screw head is
at an angle.
Note: The 4mm ball head hexagon bit for Lamello
Cabineo surface connectors can be turned around
to make a straight 4mm hexagon bit for Conrmats.
This is recommended to extend the tool life of the
ball end.
Install Levelers | Floor
Glides | Locking Casters
Place black metal trim
parts in position over
the hole and install the
threaded insert using the
6mm hex key (provided).
DO NOT USE A SCREW
GUN.
Install the threaded oor
glides or locking casters
into the inserts.
2 Technical Support: 800-770- 7042 | www.smartdesks.com Universal SMARTdesk Assembly

Assembly:
On the oor, use a furniture blanket to prepare
a safe workspace for nished surfaces. If using
carpet, vacuum to make sure nothing sharp,
like a paper cliip, thumb tack, or stray wood
screw is present to ruin the funiture surface.
Install keyboard/mouse tray, if the model
includes it.
Eight Phillips head wood screws will be found
for each keyboard/mouse tray. It is best to
install this before installing cabinets, as depict-
ed, because access to the screw locations is
limited.
Assemble CPU Cabinets
The end CPU cabinet will be black on the in-
side and a laminate color chosen by the client
on the outside. In this manual, the inside lam-
inate was chosen to be fusion maple for clarity
in showing the pilot hole locations. Expect the
inside color to be black.
Colored dowels are used to help locate the
shelf for assembly. Press the dowels into the
locations in the panel, then begin assembly.
Press the shelf onto the end panel
with the dowel pin locators, then
use the 4mm hex tool in a screw
gun to mount the shelf using Bronze
Conrmat Screw Connectors.

CPU Cabinet Assembly, continued.
With the shelf now attached to the end panel
with Conrmats, match up the dowel loca-
tions to the all black cabinet panel.
Complete the end panel CPU cabinet by
securing with two Conrmats using the 4mm
hex drive and screw gun.
The double desk has a second CPU cabinet.
The photo shows the parts and the completed
assembly.
It goes together exactly like the end panel:
•Locate the shelf with dowels
•Install with Conrmat screws
•Locate the second side to the installed
shelf with dowels
•Install with Conrmat screws.

Technical Support: 800-770- 7042 | www.smartdesks.com Universal SMARTdesk Assembly 5
Attach base cabinet assemblies and panels
to the top with Lamello Cabineo Surface
Connectors
•The screws of the surface connectors are
outset to facilitate locating them in the
pilot holes.
•Note the locations of the wire pass-
throughs and 80mm wire grommet: they
should be at the back side of the top,
opposite of the user side.
•Place dowels to help locate the modesty
panel (the next step).
•Start with the end panel with the CPU
cabinet assembly.
•If you are assembling a double, set the
middle CPU cabinet assembly.
•If you are assembling a single or a double,
set the end panel next.
•Use the ball end 4mm hex driver in a screw
gun to drive the surface connectors into
the top.
•The point of using a ball end hex driver is
to let you drive a square tting at an angle.
Use this design feature to your advantage.
Note that the keyboards trays
have been mounted prior to
mounting the base panels.
If you skipped this step,
please help yourself out and
install them sooner, rather
than later.
If you are assembling a desk
for laptops, keyboard trays
will not be included.

6 Technical Support: 800-770- 7042 | www.smartdesks.com Universal SMARTdesk Assembly
Turn desk for placement of the
modesty panel
•Check to see that the pilot hole patterns of
the modesty panel line up with the ones in
the base panels.
•Let gravity do the work. Move the modesty
panel around so the dowels locate the
base cabinet(s) and panel.
•Use the straight end of the 4mm hex drive
in a screw gun to install three Conrmats
to secure the side panels to the modesty
panel.
•Use Conrmats through the modesty
panel to secure it to the CPU base cabinets.

And that’s it!
Please refer to ipIT® instructions if you
are completing a ipIT® FI Series Desk.

Assembly
Make a place for assembly on a carpeted
floor (freshly vacuumed) or a clean furniture
blanket or clean cardboard sheets. Protect
the surfaces from abrasion. A dropped screw
could be a real danger. Keep track of your
sharp little parts.
These directions will cover how to assemble either the single or
double models of iLid. The Double will be shown as the main product,
and the single will be shown as the simpler alternate in summary.
Prepare a work table with a blanket for assembly of the
iLid® mechanism.
Install the spring bracket first. Orient the bracket over the set of
mounting holes of the iLid panel, with the hand-hold curve pointed
away from you.
4 iLid Flip Computer Desk by SMARTdesks® www.smartdesks.com ©2012 CBT Supply, Inc. 800-770-7042
The finished assembly has the spring bracket
on the right and the friction adjustment
bracket on the left.
Install the spring bracket to the ilid with 3 Euroscrews, using a #2 Phil-
lips driver. Then, put the top and iLid together on the table. Move the
spring with gentle leverage to align with the pre-drilled pilot holes, and
install with 3 Euroscrews. It’s good practice to break the thermofoil with
your Phillips driver before installing the Euroscrews. Insert the Phillips
driver bit into the pilot hole and give it a quick spin.
The friction adjustment bracket installs with
six Euroscrews on the opposite side.
The VESA mounting bracket is two parts that
interlock. Press the red lever to release the
interlock and mount this part to the iLid.
With the red lever oriented to the hand hold side of the iLid, install with 3 Euroscrews.
The set of mounting holes you choose is determined by the LCD to be installed. The
bracket may be installed later, when mounting the LCD in the assembled desk.
1. Install iLid® into top

L brackets, with machine screws for mounting, are packaged for the keyboard tray. Install the L-brackets tabs in, using
the third hole from the L. If another position is desired, use the same for all four tabs.
Using the 1/2” Phillips drive #2 pan head
screws, install the keyboard tray using the
pre-drilled pilot holes.

2. Install keyboard tray
This is the finished installation of the iLid®
brackets and VESA mounts.
The keyboard tray is shown in
the position for use.

Place cam pins in
holes along the
approach side and lift
the modesty panel
into position. Push
pins into modesty
panel cam locks
The cam lock
has an arrow
that points to
the hole open-
ing, in line with
the pin, for
insertion.
After pushing
the pin home,
use a #2 driver
to tighten the
cam, turning
clockwise.

4. Install modesty panel
Install the left and right side panels by
capturing the plastic jointing fixtures.
Cabineo surface connectors are now being used. Refer to the Universal
SMARTdesks Instructions for details.
3. Install side panels
NOTE: Install your wire grommets last.
You may insert the wire grommets after
the desk has been built. Then there is no
chance of installing them in the wrong side
of the panel. We had this desk together and
apart to demonstrate assembly, and the
grommets are difficult to take out, once in-
stalled. That’s why they are shown installed
in the photos that follow.

Insert two pins through center of shelf into brace. Tighten cams with #2 Phillips driver.

7. Install power strip
The power strip is located to the right of each
user, such that the power cord easily makes a
bend into the wire management channel.
Make pilot holes by marking the hole loca-
tions with a scratch awl. Use a 1/8”drill bit
with a depth gauge to avoid drilling through
the panel. Install with 1-1/8” drywall screws.
8 iLid Flip Computer Desk by SMARTdesks® www.smartdesks.com ©2012 CBT Supply, Inc. 800-770-7042
6. Install Wire Management
Place wire management channel aligned with
side grommets, parallel with CPU shelf. Use self-
adhesive strip and self-pilot 1/2”Phillips drive
screws, two per channel.
Place the desk on
its back so you can
mount wire manage-
ment and power strip
to the modesty panel.

8. Install monitor and …
The VESA mounting bracket is shipped in two parts that are bound
together. Cut the plastic strip and depress the red lever to release the
VESA mount. The mount has 100mm and 75mm holes that work with
all VESA compliant monitors.
Use the 4 screws provided with your monitor
to install the bracket.
9. Make tension adjustment
iLid™ is tensioned at the factory for a 12-15
lb. monitor. If you need to make a tension
adjustment for smooth operation of the
iLid, use a 5/32”hex key and 7/16” open end
wrench to tighten or loosen the adjustment
on the left bracket. The right bracket has the
spring to assist opening. The friction adjust-
ment of the left bracket provides damping so
the lid doesn’t open with too much force and
bounce the monitor around.
You will need to remove the monitor to make
this adjustment. Be careful when opening the
iLid without a monitor installed. If the spring
tension does not have any friction resistance,
the lid will open too fast and the forces could
tear the lid from the mounting screws. If this
happens, use a wooden toothpick and wood
glue to repair the mounting hole.
