2. Turn the large black tightening knob clockwise to make sure it is ready to hold the
assembly in the compressed position.
3. Cut the Retention Straps.
4. Discard the Straps.
The Tower will be packaged in a compressed position.
The Retention Straps should be removed before assembly.

Step 2: Attach Tower to Steel Base
For safety, two people must perform the following steps.
1. Place the Tower in the upside down position on a flat sturdy table as shown below.
2. Position the Steel Base over the tower. Five holes on the steel base will match five
holes on the bottom of the tower. Make sure the felt pads are facing up.
3. Take the 5 short chrome bolts and hand feed them through the Base into the Tower.
Hand-tighten the bolts until nearly tight. Keep bolts slightly loose until all are
connected.
4. Use the small Hex Key to tighten the bolts more securely. Do not over tighten.
5. Invert the assembly to position the Steel Base on the table for the next step.
The Tower will be packaged in a compressed position. Do not loosen the knobs until the
Tower is attached to the Base. This will make assembly easier.

monitor is desired, the Dual Monitor Board can be removed and a Monitor
Bracket can be moved to the center of the tower using the holes provided. See
Step 10.
To move or lift the product,
hold the Tower and Steel Base.
Do not use the Monitor Board.

Step 6: Attach Monitor Bracket to Monitor& Tower
1 2 - 4 5 6
1. The DC350 comes with two VESA brackets designed to fit most monitors. Your
monitor is compatible if there are four screw holes in the center of the back of the
monitor.
2. Place the monitor with the screen facing down on a soft surface that will not
scratch the monitor.
3. Align the monitor bracket over the four screw holes.
TIP: The topside has a smaller opening hole than the bottom.
4. Use the four provided Thumb Screws to secure the monitor bracket to the
computer monitor.
5. Place a Large Spacer on the post of the monitor holder attached to the Monitor
Holder Board.
6. Lift the monitor, and carefully place the monitor on to the post.
7. Place a second Large Spacer over the post hole and insert the Tightening Knob.
Turn the knob clockwise very tightly with your fingers. This will secure the monitor
in place.
8. Repeat for the second monitor.

Step 7: Adjust the Desk Surface Height
1. Turn the black knob located behind the Desk Surface counter-clockwise two or three
rotations to loosen. This will free the desk surface to be raised or lowered. Gently
pull up or down on the Desk Surface if it does not move. If the Desk Surface does
not move easily, loosen the knob another ½ rotation and try again.
TIP: The best location to hold the Desk when raising is both hands on the side,
towards the rear.
2. Set the Desk Surface at your desired height, by turning the knob clockwise until snug
and the Desk Surface no longer moves up or down. Do not over tighten! Too much
force can break the hardware. Tighten only as much as required to maintain a stable
Desk Surface height. Experiment to determine the minimal amount of tightening
required to hold the desk in place. This will extend the life of your product.
TIP: For optimal downward movement, place your hand in the rear center of the
Desk Surface and slowly push down. Do not push down on the front of the desk.
TIP: The desk will move down with less effort when weight from a monitor and desk
items has been added.
WARNING: Do not lean on the Desk Surface. Do not place heavy items on the Desk
Surface. The Desk is designed to hold the weight of a keyboard, mouse, telephone,
papers, and other light items. To ensure proper performance and product life, do not
exceed 20 pounds.
Use only when all fasteners are tight.
At least every six months, tighten all
fasteners. If parts are missing, broken,
or worn, stop use of the product until
repairs are made using Victor
authorized parts.

Step 8: Adjust the Monitor Tilt or Height
1. The bracket allows the monitor to tilt up or down. Tighten the
mechanism by turning the wrench clockwise on the bolt head.
For more firm rotation, tighten the hex bolt.
2. When looking at the monitor from the front, push the monitor to
the left to expose the Tower behind the monitor.
3. Turn the black knob located behind the monitor counter-
clockwise two or three rotations to loosen. This will free the
monitor to be raised or lowered.
Gently pull up or down on the monitor if it does not move. If the
monitor does not move easily, loosen the knob another ½ rotation
and try again.
TIP: More effort is required to lower the Monitor compared to the Desk Surface. This is
normal.
4. To set the monitor at your desired height, turn the knob clockwise until snug and the monitor
no longer moves up or down. Do not over tighten! Too much force can break the hardware.
Tighten only as much as required to maintain a stable monitor height. Experiment to
determine the minimal amount of tightening required to hold the monitor in place. This will
extend the life of your product.
TIP: For optimal downward movement, place your hand at the top of the Tower and slowly
push down. Do not push down on the monitor.
TIP: The monitor mount will move down with less effort when the weight of a monitor has
been added.
TIP: If the monitor rotates too loosely, spin the monitor clockwise one full rotation. This is a
quick way to tighten the mechanism.
5. OPTIONAL: Additional height adjustment can be obtained by moving the location of the
monitor holder on the monitor board. Loosen the four Thumb Nuts and remove the bracket.
Move the bracket to the desired location and install the nuts and bolts.

Step 9: Stabilize the Desk Surface (Optional)
1. Your DC350 Desk Converter is now fully operational. You may desire the desk
surface to feel more secure when in the standing position. For this, a Stabilizer has
been provided. To use the Stabilizer, first set the desk surface to the desired height.
2. View the bottom of the Desk Surface and locate the round cutout toward the front.
3. Hold the Stabilizer leg under the desk surface in the cutout.
4. Rotate the bottom of the Stabilizer to increase or decrease the length. Adjust until
the Stabilizer fits under the Desk Surface and provides a light amount of upward
force.
TIP. As you become more comfortable working in the stand-up position, you will
likely find the Stabilizer unnecessary.

Step 10:Optional: Attach Cord Clips
Depending on your desk configuration, you may wish to manage the location of the
cords. You may also wish to let the cords hang freely.
Many different cord management products are available for purchase.
Six cord clips have been included with the DC350. Use all or none in any location you
desire. Peel off the paper to reveal the adhesive surface. Stick the clips to the Tower.
Possible locations are shown below.

For safety, the Dual Monitor Board can only be used with two monitors of equal weight.
Do not use the Dual Monitor Board with only one monitor. If one monitor is desired, the
Dual Monitor Board can be removed and a Monitor Bracket can be moved to the center
of the tower using the holes provided. The same bolts and Thumb Nuts can be re-used,
but are inserted in reverse direction.
The Center Board on the Tower must be removed and reattached after the monitor
bracket is attached to one of three locations on the Center Board.

Helpful Tips
•Do not lean on the D350 High Rise Sit-Stand Desk Converter. Doing so may cause the unit to
tip or break.
•Heavy items should never be placed on the desk surface. Do not exceed 20 pounds.
•You will not be able to raise or lower the Desk Surface or monitor when the knob is tight. If you
wish to adjust the height, make sure the knob is loose.
•In order to ensure you are using the desk converter ergonomically, please consider the
following:
- Ensure the computer monitor is at the correct height: Your eyes should be level with the
top third of the computer monitor. The computer monitor should also be at a slight upward
angle.
- Ensure the desk surface is at the correct height: the keyboard is typically most
comfortable at slightly below elbow level.
- Ensure you are comfortable: Standing at work is a lifestyle change. You may be slightly
uncomfortable at first due to using new muscles. It’s best to ease into standing at work. Try
standing for short periods of time, then sitting for the rest. Slowly increase the amount of
time standing. This will reduce the amount of strain on your body. Wear comfortable shoes.
- Get a Balance Board or an Anti-Fatigue Mat: Standing on a hard surface could hurt your
joints. We recommend the Steppie Balance Board.
