• Do not exceed the maximum load capacity of 50 kg.

• Audibax Onyx 151 Scissor Keyboard Support (main frame)

Assembly Instructions

Assembly of the Audibax Onyx 151 is straightforward and typically takes less than 10 minutes.

1. Unfold the Stand: Carefully remove the stand from its packaging. Gently pull the two main 'X' shaped sections apart until they begin to open.
2. Attach Upper and Lower Arms: The stand comes with pre-attached upper and lower arms. Ensure these are correctly oriented. The upper arms are designed to support the keyboard, while the lower arms provide ground stability.
3. Secure Connections: Using the provided hex key, tighten any visible screws on the upper and lower arms to ensure they are firmly attached to the main frame. This step ensures maximum stability.
4. Check Rubber Sleeves: Verify that the adjustable rubber sleeves on both the upper and lower arms are securely in place. These sleeves protect your instrument and floor from scratches and provide anti-slip stability.

Operating Instructions

The Audibax Onyx 151 features an easy-to-use adjustment system for height and a professional locking mechanism.

1. Adjusting Height: Locate the spring-loaded lever and lock clutch mechanism at the center of the stand. Depress the lever to disengage the lock.
2. Set Desired Height: While holding the lever, carefully adjust the stand to your desired height. The stand offers a height range from 7 cm to 100 cm.
3. Locking the Height: Once the desired height is achieved, release the spring-loaded lever. The lock clutch will engage, securely fixing the stand at the selected height. Ensure the stand is stable before proceeding.
4. Placing the Keyboard: Carefully place your electronic keyboard onto the upper support arms. The anti-slip rubber sleeves will help secure the instrument.

Folding for Transport/Storage: To fold the stand, depress the spring-loaded lever and gently push the 'X' sections together until the stand is compact. Its lightweight and foldable design makes it easy to transport and store.

Care and Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the stand with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and dirt. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
• Inspection: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten with the hex key if necessary.
• Rubber Sleeves: Ensure the anti-slip rubber sleeves on the arms and feet are intact and not worn, as they are crucial for instrument and floor protection.
• Storage: Store the stand in a dry environment, away from extreme temperatures or humidity, to prevent corrosion.

Troubleshooting

• Stand is unstable: Ensure all screws are tightened. Verify the stand is placed on a flat, level surface. Check if the rubber feet are properly seated.
• Difficulty adjusting height: Ensure the spring-loaded lever is fully depressed. Check for any obstructions in the locking mechanism.
• Keyboard slipping on stand: Confirm the anti-slip rubber sleeves on the upper arms are clean and intact. Ensure the keyboard is centered and balanced on the stand.
