1. SAFETY AND WARNINGS
• Inappropriate use of this product may cause property or bodily injury.
• Check surroundings on all sides before using the desk. Body parts and property
can be crushed if trapped between an immobile obstacle and the desk’s range of motion.
• Ensure the length of power cords are accounted for when operating the desk. Monitors,
computers, speakers, anything with a cord that is not long enough for the desk’s range
of motion could be pulled down or have its wires broken. Items pulled off the desk
may cause other items to fall.

2. USAGE
This height adjustable desk has an electric motor and is designed for use in dry work areas only.
The desk height is adjustable so that it can be positioned at the most ergonomically suitable height. These
desks are designed only for the purposes included in this manual. They should not be used
in environments with high humidity or dampness. Any other use is at user’s risk.
Do not move around, crawl or lie under the desk frame. Do not sit or stand on the desk frame.
Children should never use the desk unless they are supervised by adults.
Liability: Under no circumstances does the manufacturer accept warranty claims or liability claims
for damages caused from improper use or handling of the desk frame other than that which
is described in this operation manual.
3. SETUP AND INSTALLATION
Once the desk has been assembled, adjust the feet so that the desk is level and does not shift its position.
After this, connect the desk to the 110v outlet and the desk is ready for use.
Check that no cables can get jammed.
Choose a placement for the desk that’s a safe distance from window frames, radiators, furniture etc. so
that people do not get stuck or trapped by the desk.
Do not place any objects that are taller than 20” underneath the desk.
After it has been assembled, when moving the desk, DO NOT lift the desk by the desktop. Lifting
this way can stress the fasteners connecting the desk base to the desktop. Lower the desk completely and
lift the desk by grabbing the top of the desk base or by removing the desktop rst.

A. First, Lay out all components and hardware to ensure that you have all the parts listed on the compo-
nents list. Then Slide Crossbar Center Rails (Part #4) out of Crossbar Ends (Part #3).

3
Turn Legs (Part #1) and Crossbar Ends (Part #3) on their
sides. Make sure Crossbar Ends (Part #3) have the
labeled “Top Arrow” pointing towards where the desktop
will be. Since you have the parts on their side at this
point, the arrow should be pointing away.
Line up the holes on each Leg (Part #1)
with the holes on each Crossbar End (Part #3).

This will end up being
the top side of the desk.

AND ROTATE 3 TIMES. YOU WILL TIGHTEN IN STEP D.
Insert qty 4 Machine Screws (Part #11) through the 4 holes of each Crossbar End (Part #3)
going into the Leg (Part #1). Using the Allen Wrench, rotate each screw ONLY 3 times.

End, simply tilt to retrieve the screw.
C. IMPORTANT! DO NOT TIGHTEN SCREWS IN THIS STEP, ONLY INSERT THEM
AND ROTATE 3 TIMES. YOU WILL TIGHTEN IN STEP D.
Line up the 4 holes on the Side Brackets (Part #5) with
the Crossbar End and Leg assembly from the previous step.
Insert qty 4 Machine Screws (Part #11) through
the 4 holes of the Side Bracket (Part #5) going into
the Crossbar End/Leg Assembly. Using the
Allen Wrench, rotate each screw ONLY 3 times.
If you are having trouble getting all the screws
!
started, it is because other screws are too tight.
You’ll need to back out some screws in order
to loosen the tolerance of the screw holes.
Remove backing from adhesive pads
and position along the bracket as shown.

D. Once all of these screws have been started, you can now tighten the qty 8 Machine Screws
(Part #11) from Step C and the qty 8 Machine Screws (Part #11) described in Step B (16 screws in total).
E. The Crossbar Center Rails (Part #4) are optional. They provide more stability, but if not needed they
can be skipped during installation or removed later. If your desktop is less than 43” wide the center rails
should not be installed, as they will cause the frame to be too wide for the desktop. If you are installing a
keyboard tray the center rails should not be installed, as they will interfere with placement of the track.
Slide Crossbar Center Rails (Part #4) back into Crossbar Ends (Part #3). Ensure the slots of the Crossbar
Center Rails are facing inward.
The slot on the Crossbar Center Rail is offset;
it will need to be oriented in a specic way
to allow for the machine screws already
installed. Make sure that the Crossbar
Center Rail (Part #4) can slide all the
way to the end of the Crossbar End
(Part #3). If it does not, take the Crossbar
Center Rail (Part #4) out and ip it over,
with the slots facing inward.

F. Attach each Foot (Part #2)
with qty 4 Machine Screws (Part #11)
and tighten bolts in a cross pattern.

G. Your desktop may or may not be pre-drilled. Please check both sides of the desktop before placing
the desk base on it for pre-drilling! Carefully place the upside down desk base on the underside
of the desktop.
Note: minimum top size: 43” wide x 24” deep
Adjust the width of the base to t the desktop by sliding
the two halves outward (42.125” to 74.75” max).
Place the base where you want it. Some will want the frame to be all
the way to the edge of the desk. We recommend leaving at least 1/2”
of desktop width (on each side) protruding beyond the frame width.

Center the frame by using the desktop edge

Do not use the screw holes as a point of reference.
as a reference. Measure to the metal brace.

The desk feet are deeper than the side brackets.
If your top is 25.5”-27.5” deep and you want the
rear edge of the top in line with the rear edges
of the feet, offset your desktop toward the back.
5
H. Secure the Center Rails at both ends
using qty 8 Machine Screws (Part #12),
qty 4 per side. Maximum width is 70”.
Ensure that the machine screw hits the metal
!
center rail by sliding the center rail as needed.
I. Double-check that the base is centered on the underside of the desktop and is located where you
want it. Also, double-check that the included wood screws are not too long for your desktop and won’t
puncture the surface when screwed all the way in.
12
We recommend you pre-drill any holes
!
needed for fasteners connecting
the base to the top.
NOTE: PLEASE ENSURE THAT YOUR
DESKTOP DOES NOT
HOLES BY CHECKING BOTH SIDES.
This will make it easier to attach the screws
and will greatly lessen the stress caused by
driving a screw into the desktop material.
Now, proceed with securing the desk base to the desktop
using qty 8 of the Pan Head Screws (Part #13).
Install as follows:

J. Using the wires, connect the Legs (part 1)
to the Control box (part #7) and the Keypad (part #8)
Wires as per the diagram below. Do this so you can
place the Keypad and Control Box in such a way
so that the cables can reach them.

L. IN THIS FOLLOWING STEP, DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN SCREWS. OVER TIGHTENING MAY
CAUSE THE PLASTIC ON THE COMPONENTS TO BREAK.
Place the Keypad (Part #8) so the front of the keypad runs
ush with the desktop edge (or recessed up to 1/8”).
The Keypad can be placed anywhere along the front edge
of the desk, but we recommend placing it near the side so
it doesn’t interfere with your chair or legs when seated.
Use qty 2 of the Pan Head Screws (Part #13) to attach
the Keypad (Part #8) to the desktop. Use the adhesive-backed
Cable Clips (Part #14) to secure all wires so they don’t sag.
M. Turn the assembled desk right-side-up. With two people, grab the desk by the base (not the
desktop) and turn the desk right-side up. Adjust the Leveling Studs on the Feet (Part #2) as needed.
