Step 2
Place Crossbar ends (C2) upside down as shown.
Insert the Leg (C1) so that the back of the Leg and the
back of the Crossbar end are ush.
To avoid cross-threading and to ensure all the screw
holes are lined up, start the four M6x10 Machine screws
(H1) by rotating each for only a few turns through the
Crossbar end holes into the Leg as shown, but do not
tighten them all the way.
Once all four screws have been started, tighten them
all the way using the 4mm Allen wrench (H6).
Repeat this step for the other 3 Legs.

DESK ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Step 1
Count all pieces before disposing of any packing
material. Inspect both sides of your desktop for
damage. To avoid any damage to your oor or your
desk, assemble on top of a debris-free carpeted area
or a blanket.
For ease and safety, we recommend two people for
assembly.
Before assembly, consider where you want your desk
to be located. Since your new desk is height adjustable,
you will want it located a safe distance from window
frames, furniture, radiators, or anything else that
could obstruct the desk from raising or lowering. Do
not place any objects underneath the desk that are
taller than 21”, and consider any accessories mounted
to your desk that would lower even further than the
desk itself.

Step 4
For Desktops with Threaded Screw Inserts: You’ll
be using the #10-24x5/8” Flathead Machine screws
(H4c) to attach the Side brackets (C4) to the desktop.
For Desktops without Threaded Screw Inserts: You’ll
be using the #10x5/8” Flathead Wood screws (H4d)
to attach the Side brackets (C4) to the desktop.

Step 5
Place your Desktop upside down on a debris-free
carpeted area or a blanket. Make sure the Desktop is
upside down. If your Desktop has pre-drilled holes or
threaded inserts, they should be visible and facing up.
Align the holes in one Side bracket (C4) with the pre-drilled
holes or threaded inserts on one side of the Desktop. Make
sure that the beveled edge of the Side bracket is pointed
towards the front of the Desktop. Then attach it with three
of the screws chosen in Step 4.
Be careful to not over-tighten, to avoid stripping.
Step 6
Slide two Leg assemblies onto the tabs of the Side
bracket. Connect them to the Side bracket with four
M6x10 Machine screws (H1).
Rotate each screw by hand for only a few turns to
avoid cross-threading. Once the four screws are start-
ed, tighten all the way using the 4mm Allen wrench
(H6).

Step 7
Orient all the Crossbar rails (C3) so that the Center
indicator marks are facing up. When pairing two
rails together, make sure the slots are facing inward
(towards each other) and the slot on the Crossbar rails
is farther from the oor, as shown below .
Insert two Crossbar rails (C3) into each Crossbar end
(C2) as far as they will go. Take the other two Leg as-
semblies and slide them onto the Crossbar rails as far
as they will go.
Center indicator marks

Step 10
Slide each Crossbar rail (C3) until the Center indicator
mark is in the middle. Once this is done, the Crossbar
rail will be centered and in the proper position.
Insert four M8x8 Set screws (H3) into the holes on
each Crossbar end to secure each Crossbar rail.
Tighten using the 4mm Allen wrench (H6).
Step 8
Align the holes in the second Side bracket (C4) with
the pre-drilled holes or threaded inserts on the other
side of the Desktop. Once again, make sure that the
beveled edge of the Side bracket is pointed towards
the front of the Desktop. Then attach it with three of
the screws chosen in Step 4.
Be careful to not over-tighten, to avoid stripping.
Slide two Leg assemblies onto the tabs on the Side
bracket and connect them to the Side bracket with
four M6x10 Machine screws (H1).
Once all the screws are inserted, tighten down the
screws using the 4mm Allen wrench (H6).
Step 9
Once the Side brackets and Crossbar ends are in
place, attach the Crossbar ends to the Desktop us-
ing four of the #10x3/4’’ Wood screws (H4a) and four
Washers (H5).
Make sure all screws are started before fully tighten-
ing them.
If you own a drill, you can make pilot holes to make this
a little easier. Use it with a 1/8” diameter drill bit and,
ensuring that you DO NOT DRILL DEEPER THAN 1/2”,
drill pilot holes where you’ve made your marks. Check
that the frame assembly is in the right location prior
to drilling by conrming that your marks are lined up.

Step 11
Choose which side of the Desktop you’d like your
Keypad to be on. Remember that you’re installing
your desk upside down, so the nal location of the
Keypad will be opposite of what you’re seeing during
assembly.
For Desktops with Pre-Drilled Holes: There are two
sets of holes to accommodate different Keypads. Line
up your Keypad (C6) with the pre-drilled holes, and
attach it to the Desktop with two #10x5/8’’ Wood
screws (H14).
For Desktops without Pre-Drilled Holes: The Keypad
(C6) can be placed anywhere along the front edge
of the Desktop. Typically you will want it to the side
where it won’t interfere with your legs, your chair,
or any accessories. After carefully considering the
placement, hold the Keypad in the desired location
and make a pencil mark at each hole location.
If you own a drill, you can make pilot holes to make this
a little easier. Use a 1/8” diameter drill bit and, ensur-
ing that you DO NOT DRILL DEEPER THAN 1/2”, drill
pilot holes where you’ve made your marks. Or you can
drive the screws directly into the desktop if you do
not own a drill. Then fasten the keypad with the two
#10x5/8” Wood screws (H14).

C7 Step 12
Plug the Power cable (C7) into the power socket on
the Control box (C5) marked “AC”.
Line up your Control box (C5) with the pre-drilled
holes, and attach it to desktop with two #10x5/8’’
Wood screws (H14) each.
The Control box will be in the center of the desk, equi-
distant from each side.
Step 13
Plug each Leg into a Leg cable (C8), and then plug
the Leg cable into the white ports on the Control box
marked “M1”, “M2”, “M3”, and “M4”.
Now, plug the Keypad (C6) into the Control box port
labeled “HS”.

ACCESSORY INSTRUCTIONS
Installing Wire Management Tray:
If you will have a lot of wires to wrangle, install the Wire
management tray while assembling your desk. Assess
where your wires may be concentrated. M ove it un-
til you nd the placement you want, and make a pencil
mark at each hole’s location.
Attach tray to your desk using two (2) #10x5/8’’ Wood
screws (H14).
If you own a drill, you can make pilot holes to make this
a little easier. Use it with a 1/8” diameter drill bit and,
ensuring that you DO NOT DRILL DEEPER THAN 1/2”,
drill pilot holes where you’ve made your marks.
Now is a good time to install accessories such as wire management, CPU holders, keyboard trays, or anything
else that fastens to the bottom of your desk. This section will cover accessories that are included with this
Frame. For additional accessories, refer to the instructions that came with those accessories.
Desk Cable Management:
Use the included Cable mounts (H9) to organize your
wires, keep a clean presentation, and prevent any wires
from snagging on anything when adjusting height. The
Cable mounts work best when stuck directly to the
metal desk frame. Attach Cable mounts to the inside
of frame parts. You might want to save some for once
you have everything on your desk plugged in.
Step 14
Double check that all accessible screws on the desk
are tight.
And then check all screws again and make sure they’re
tight. This isn’t a typo, it’s important and it’s far easier to
tighten them with the desk upside down than it is later.
Be careful not to miss the screws marked with an ar-
row in the diagram.

Step 15
If you purchased Casters, remove the leveling pads
and install the Casters now before ipping your desk
over.
With you and your friend on opposite ends of the
desk, grab the Desktop AND Side bracket with one
hand and a Leg in the other. Be aware and be care-
ful of the cables, any attached components or acces-
sories especially an accessory that might move on a
track like a Keyboard tray or CPU holder. Support the
desk frame and the Desktop equally and tilt it gently
rotating it 90 degrees back, so the Keypad is facing up.
Readjust your grip at the Desktop and Side bracket
with one hand and keep the other hand on the Leg.
Lift and rotate 90 more degrees until your Desk is
right-sideup. Adjust the leveling studs or Casters as
needed to make the desk level.
Step 16
Position your desk where you’d like it to be. Keep it
close to a wall outlet and away from obstacles which
may interfere with the desk’s height adjustability range.
If your desk has Casters: Moving is easy! Make sure the
casters are unlocked and roll it to the desired position.
If your desk does not have Casters: Using three peo-
ple, lift your desk (do not drag it) by holding onto the
Side bracket (marked with arrows, to the left).
Note: Never lift by holding on to the Desktop itself, as
this will put undue stress on the screws.
Once the desk is in position, proceed to the next step.
Step 17
Check your desk’s surroundings to make sure there
will be no obstacles in the desk’s path and that all
cords are long enough to accommodate the motion
of your desk.
Plug your desk into a 120V outlet.
Before using your desk, you’ll need to sync all the com-
ponents by using the reset procedure.
Initial Desk Reset Procedure
Press and hold the DOWN button for 10 seconds, then
release the button.
Press and hold the DOWN button again, the desk will
lower a little, then rise a little, and then stop. Release
the button. Your desk is now ready for use!
If you are using a Memory keypad, see additional key-
pad instructions for further information on how to use
your keypad.
