Setup Instructions
Follow these steps to assemble and set up your gear4music Universal Stand:
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging and lay them out on a clean, flat surface.
- Unfold the Stand: Gently pull the two main vertical frames apart. The X-frame mechanism will extend.
