1. Determine if the CPU sling will mount on the right or left side of the desk and align the top sling holes with
the appropriate set of inserts. Figure 2.1, 2.2 shows a sling being mounted on the left side of a desk.
2. Attach the sling to the worksurface using (4) 1/4-20 PHM screws and tighten.
Note: Desks without threaded inserts or support brace use (4) #10
x 3/4” PHSM screws (026057.) Desks without inserts that include a
support brace as in Figure 2.3, use (2) nylon spacers (044890) in the
student-side holes, and one support shim (042110) in the rear holes
using the longer #10 x 1-3/4” PHSM screws (021605). The front of the
CPU sling will extend past the support brace.
Note: Desks with the support brace use (2) nylon spacers
(044890) in the front holes, and the back support shim (042110)
in the rear holes with the longer 1/4-20 x 1-1/2” PHM screws
(026547). The front of the sling will extend past the support brace.
1. Determine if the CPU sling will mount on the right or left side of the desk.
2. Fold and tape the enclosed drill template (042139) to the underside of the worksurface in the
position shown in Figure 2.3. Wrap a piece of tape around a 1/8” drill bit to mark 3/4” from
the end of the bit - Figure 2.4.
3. Carefully drill 3/4” deep through the template at the four marked hole locations. Figure 2.3.
4. Attach CPU sling to worksurface using (4) #10 sheet metal screws.
