UNPACKING AND PREPARATION

UNPACKING
It is important when you receive your DESKY that all frame components are carefully removed from the packaging and inspected for shipping damage.
Please report any damage to us immediately so we can rectify this for you as quickly as possible.

PREPARATION
Check the parts list in this manual to ensure that all necessary components have been received. The DESKY L-Shape Sit Stand Desk components are shipped in two (3) seperate shipping boxes.

If you have also ordered a desktop from us we recommend leaving this in its shipping box until it is needed to avoid any damage to the surface finish.

Remove all desk frame components from the packaging and lay on a non-abrasive surface like a carpet or rug. Contact with hard and/or abrasive surfaces may cause damage to the finish of the desk frame. Count all pieces before disposing of any packaging material.

Before assembly, consider where you want your desk to be located. You will need a clear, dry indoor area to set up and assemble your desk. All the necessary tools to set up your DESKY frame are included for easy assembly.

NOTE: If you have not purchased a desktop from us with threaded screw inserts or pre-drilled holes you will need a Phillips head screwdriver or power drill to fix the frame to your desktop.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1 Place the two crossbar ends (C7) for the main desk section upside down so that the eight (8) machine grub screws (C12) are facing upward as pictured. The crossbar rails (C8) are located inside the crossbar ends and will need to be removed.
Use the small hex key (C14) provided to loosen each grub screw on the crossbar ends and pull apart to full expose the crossbar rails.

Step 2 Place the crossbar end (C7) upside down as pictured and insert the leg (C1) so that the four (4) holes in the leg line up with the 4 holes on the crossbar end.
Ensure that the crossbar end is orientated so that the machine grub screws (C12) face upward when inserting the leg.
Insert four (4) machine screws M6 (C10) and use the large hex key (C14) to scew in a few turns. Do not tighten completely.
Repeat this step for the second leg and third leg

Step 3 Position the side bracket (C9) against the back of the crossbar end (C7) so that the four (4) holes in the side bracket line up with the holes on the crossbar end.
Insert four (4) machine screws M6 (C10) and use the large hex key (C14) to screw in a few turns. Do not tighten completely.
Start with the two outside screws first.
Repeat this step for the second lega and third leg.
Now tighten all the machine screws M6 from Steps 2 and 3.

Step 4 Place the foot (C6) onto the leg (C1) as shown so that the four holes in each line up.
Insert four (4) machine screws M6 (C10) and use the large hex key (C14) to screw in a few turns. Once all four screws have been started, tighten completely.
Repeat this step for the second foot and third.
Round levelling feet/ studs are attached to each foot to assist with levelling the desk.

Step 5 Slide the two crossbar rails (C8) into the two crossbar ends (C7) to connect the frame assembly, for the main desk section.
Ensure the crossbar rails are orientated so the rail cut-outs face inward as shown.

Step 6 Place the main desktop section upside down on a non-abrasive surface like a carpet or rug and place the frame on top. Adjust the width of the frame by pulling the two halves apart to line up with the pre-drilled holes or threaded screw inserts in the desktop.

Step 7 Your desktop will have pre-drilled holes or threaded screw inserts, depending on the desktop you have purchased from us.
Desktops with threaded screw inserts: use eight (8) machine screws M6 (C10) to secure the frame to the desktop.
Desktops with pre-drilled holes: use eight (8) wood screws M5 (C11) to secure the frame to the desktop.
Insert all screws and tighten loosely. Once all eight screws are in, tighten the frame to the desktop completely.

If your desktop does not have threaded screw inserts or pre-drilled holes you will need to pull the frame apart to position each leg assembly close to the edge of the desk. If you have also purchased the Integrated Cable & Power Channel you will need to make sure the frame is not too wide to attach the channel between the side brackets (C9).

To position the frame in this instance we recommend using the guide below to measure the minimum distance between the edge of your desk and screw holes in the side brackets.
1200mm length desktop – 25mm
1500mm length desktop – 50mm
1800mm length desktop – 80mm
Use eight (8) wood screws M5 (C11) to secure the frame to the desktop.

Step 8 Use the small hex key (C14) provided to tighten each grub screw on the crossbar ends (C7) and secure the crossbar rails (C8) in place.

Step 9 Two person lift: with one person on each side of the main desk section, hold the desk top with one hand and the leg with the other. Carefully rotate the desk until the feet on the back side of the desk contact the floor. Ensure the desk is rotated backwards to avoid damage to the front mounted controller.
Rotate the desk again to sit upright on the floor. Use the levelling studs to level the desk. Make sure you position the main section of the corner desk in its allocated spot as moving the fully assembled desk can be difficult.

Step 10 Secure the third and final leg to the return section of your desktop.
Desktops with threaded screw inserts: use four (4) machine screws M6 (C10) to secure the frame to the desktop.
Desktops with pre-drilled holes: use four (4) wood screws M5 (C11) to secure the frame to the desktop.

Step 11 With the main section of the desk in position, insert the three biscuits joiners (C16) in to the allocated holes on the edge of the desktop, as shown.
Connect the return of the desk to the main desk section by sliding it into the three exposed biscuit joints, this should freely support it ready for the next step.
This will support the return section of the desk to complete step 12.

Step 12  Position yourself underneath the upright and assembled desk. Insert the three Mitre Bolts (C15) as shown and tighten until secure.
Finger tighten the bolts first before using the spanner to ensure they are tightened completely.
Note: it is important to check that the main section and the return section are flush and in line with each other before full tightening.

Step 13 Line up the pre-drilled holes in the desktop with the holes on the controller (C3) as shown and use two (2) wood screws M5 (C11) to secure the controller to the desktop.
The controller can be placed anywhere along the front edge of the desk but there are pre-drilled holes on the left and right sides of the desktop for ease depending on whether you prefer the controller to be accessible from the left or right.

Step 14 Position the Control box in between the two Crossbar rails (C8) so that the attachment guides on the underside of the Control Box line up with the ‘M’ bracket on the one Crossbar end. Slide the Control box onto the ‘M’ bracket all the way until it is securely in place.

Connect the power cable (C4) and the controller (C3) to the control box (C2) as shown. Use the interconnecting IC 1.3m cables (C5) to connect each leg (C1) to the control box.

Use the adhesive backed cable clips (C13) to tidy the cables and secure to the underside of the desktop so the cables do not hang. If you have the Integrated Cable & Data Channel run the cables through the channel.

Step 12 If you have purchased the Integrated Cable & Power Channel, secure one end to the side bracket (C9) as shown and extend the width of the channel to meet the other
side bracket.
Make sure the spring release knob is secrewed into the side bracket securely.
Attach the other end of the channel to the side bracket in the same manner.

Tighten the screw in the centre of the channel to secure the two sides of the channel in place. Cables and wiring can be placed in the Channel.
