1. Product Overview
The HOMCOM 80 cm Foldable Computer Desk on Wheels is designed to maximize workspace efficiency, especially in smaller environments. Its innovative drop-leaf design allows it to transform from a compact side table to a spacious computer desk. Equipped with smooth-rolling casters, it offers excellent mobility, while integrated storage solutions help keep your workspace tidy.
2. Setup and Assembly
This desk requires assembly. Please ensure all components are present before beginning. While specific step-by-step instructions are not provided, the general assembly involves attaching the frame components and securing the tabletop and shelves. The desk is designed for easy assembly.
2.1 Unpacking
Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Lay them out on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratches.
2.2 Component Check
Verify that all parts listed in the product's assembly guide (not provided here) are present. Common components include:
- MDF boards (tabletop, drop leaf, shelf)
- Steel frame components
- Casters (wheels)
- Storage bag
- Fasteners (screws, bolts, etc.)
2.3 Assembly Steps (General Guidance)
- Assemble the steel frame structure according to the provided diagrams (if any).
- Attach the main tabletop and the lower shelf to the assembled frame.
- Secure the drop leaf mechanism to the main tabletop.
- Install the six 360° swivel casters into the base of the desk legs. Ensure the four lockable casters are placed in positions that allow for easy access to their locking mechanism.
- Attach the storage bag to the designated side of the desk.
- Once assembled, ensure all fasteners are tightened securely for stability.
3. Operating Instructions
3.1 Unfolding the Drop Leaf
To expand your workspace, gently lift the drop leaf section of the tabletop and extend it outwards. Secure it in place using the supporting mechanism (e.g., hinges or sliding supports) until it forms a continuous surface with the main tabletop.
3.2 Folding the Drop Leaf
To convert the desk into a compact side table, disengage the supporting mechanism for the drop leaf. Gently lower the drop leaf until it rests vertically alongside the main tabletop, reducing the desk's depth.
3.3 Moving and Securing the Desk
The desk is equipped with six 360° swivel casters for easy movement. To move the desk, ensure all four lockable casters are in the unlocked position. Once the desk is in your desired location, engage the brakes on the four lockable casters to prevent unintended movement and ensure stability.
3.4 Using Storage Features
The desk includes a lower open shelf and a side storage bag. Use the open shelf for books, binders, or other frequently accessed items. The storage bag is ideal for smaller office supplies like pens, notebooks, or documents, helping to keep your tabletop clear.
4. Maintenance
4.1 Cleaning
- MDF Surfaces: Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish. Dry immediately with a clean cloth.
- Steel Frame: Clean with a mild soap and water solution. Dry thoroughly to prevent rust.

4.2 Caster Care
Periodically check the casters for any accumulated dust, hair, or debris that might hinder smooth movement. Clean them as necessary. Ensure the locking mechanisms are functioning correctly.
4.3 General Care
- Avoid placing hot items directly on the tabletop; use coasters or protective pads.
- Do not overload the desk or shelves beyond their stated weight capacities.
- Regularly check and tighten any loose screws or fasteners to maintain stability.
5. Troubleshooting

- Support Mechanism: Check that the supporting mechanism (e.g., hinges, sliding supports) is fully extended and locked into place.
5.3 Casters Not Rolling Smoothly
- Debris: Inspect casters for hair, dust, or other debris caught in the wheels. Clean them thoroughly.
