2.2 A note about screws/bolts
The bag of bolts/screws (#9) is a generic package covering several desk models. Therefore, there
will be some unused bolts/screws once assembly/installation is complete. There may also be an
extra screw or two in the bag of self-tapping screws (#10).
Below we describe each bolt and what it’s used for. The are only 4 bolts/screws required to
assemble the Pro-Series frame and desktop.
M8 x 20mm
- 8 pieces in total
- Allen key required (supplied)
- Used to attach feet to the legs
M6 x 10mm
- 4 pieces in total
- Philips head screwdriver required (not supplied)
- Used to attach the control box to the adjustable tubes
M8 x 10mm
- 12 pieces in total
- Allen key required (supplied)
- Used to attach the legs to the wings and adjustable tubes
Self Tapping
- 10 pieces in total
- Philips head screwdriver required (not supplied)
- Used to attach the frame, control panel and optional cable tray to the desktop

2.3 Step 1
Note: The frame is being assembled upside-down at first as this is the simplest method.
Using the Allen key (#8) provided, loosen (don’t remove) the 8 pre-installed screws as indicated
above by the yellow circles.
Extend the adjustable tubes (#4) the appropriate length to suit your desktop.
- 120cm desktops require the tubes to be adjusted inwards, as close to the tabs (with
red/orange arrows) as possible.
- 150cm desktops require the tubes to be extended out to 130cm.
- 180cm desktops require a 150-160cm length. *
The adjusted tubes should be exactly the same length as one another, so that the centre tabs with
holes are directly opposite each other (red/orange arrows indicated in the image above) for control
box (#5) installation in Step 4. Tighten the 8 bolts using the Allen key (#8) firmly.
*Important: For desktops 180cm and greater in length, it’s crucial that you do not extend the
adjustable tubes longer than 160cm. Doing so will reduce the frames structural rigidity.

2.4 Step 2
Position the wings (#3) alongside the adjustable tubes (#4), ensuring they are roughly centred as
shown above (ignore the additional offset hole circled in red, which was just used for manufacture).
Place a leg (#1) on top of the adjustable tubes (#4) and wing (#3). You will notice that the holes line
up (as demonstrated by the green circles). Screw in ‘M8 x 10mm’ bolts (#9) in all 6 (six) holes in the
leg base using the Allen key (#8) and tighten firmly. Do the same for the other leg (#1).

2.5 Step 3
Install the feet (#2), keeping the black pads facing upwards as shown. Screw in four ‘M8 x 20mm’
bolts for the first foot using the Allen key (#8) and tighten firmly. Repeat on the other side.

9
2.6 Step 4
Flip the desk frame onto its feet. Install the control box (#5) as shown. Using a Philips head
screwdriver (not the Allen key), install the four ‘M6 x 10mm’ screws. Tighten the screws until they
are full seated on the steel bracket. DO NOT overtighten these screws or use excessive force once
they are seated.
It does not matter which direction you install the control box.

Desktop Installation
Installation of the desktop and control panel (#11) uses the same principles no matter what size
desktop you have. To reiterate, a drill is not required for this task.
If installed, unplug all cables from the control box and set aside. Do this to ensure cables are not
pinched in the process of the desktop installation.
Laying a soft cloth or carpet on the ground, put your preferred desktop side facing down. Some
models of desktop come with the UpDown Desk logo. It’s personal taste as to whether you have the
logo facing upwards for everyone to see or underneath.
Position the constructed frame in the centre of the desktop as shown. To ensure it’s square, the
distance from the wings to the edges of the desk must be identical (Items ‘A’ must all be equal and
items ‘B’ must all be equal). It’s best to double check each distance twice using a measuring tape.
