the juno desk can be assembled as right or left-sided. we know
choices can be a blessing and a curse, so poll all invested
parties, phone a friend, or do whatever you need to help make your
decision. then, when you’re ready, move on to step 13a or 13b—
depending on which side is the lucky winner.
it’s time to decide!

13a
13bRIGHT SIDE:
with a friend, lift assembled desktop (H) and leg panel (E) and insert connectors of case
sides (A1 +A2) into holes on underside of desktop (H). push down firmly to lock into
place.
LEFT SIDE:
with a friend, lift assembled desktop (H) and leg panel (E) and insert connectors of case
sides (A1 +A2) into holes on underside of desktop (H). push down firmly to lock into
place.
