This product requires assembly. Please exercise caution during the assembly process. If you encounter any initial defects with the product, please contact customer support immediately.
- Always follow the assembly instructions carefully.

3. Assembly Instructions
Before you begin, please verify that all parts are present and undamaged. A hex wrench is included; no additional tools are required for assembly.
General Assembly Steps:
- Assemble the Rack Frame: Begin by attaching the four adjusters to the bottom of the rack side frames. Then, connect the crossbars between the side frames using the provided screws. Ensure all holes align correctly before tightening.
- Attach Rack Shelves: Secure the bottom and middle shelves to the assembled rack frame. It is recommended to lightly tighten screws on one side first (70-80%) to allow for minor adjustments before fully tightening all screws.
- Assemble the Desk Frame: Attach two adjusters to the desk leg frame. Connect the desk crossbar to the desk leg frame using the appropriate screws.
- Connect Rack and Desk Frames: Attach the assembled desk frame to the rack frame using the connecting bars and screws. Pay attention to the orientation of the holes for proper alignment.
- Attach Desk Top Panel: Carefully place the main desk top panel onto the desk frame. Ensure there is no gap between the rack shelf and the desk top panel, and that they are flush. Secure the desk top panel using the connecting plates and screws.
Important: When attaching the desktop, use the correct screws. Overtightening or using the wrong screws may cause the desktop to crack or split.
- Install Cross Reinforcement Bars: Attach the X-shaped cross reinforcement bars to the back of the rack and desk frames using the designated screws. These bars provide additional stability and prevent swaying.

5. Maintenance and Care
- Cleaning: Wipe the desk surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the melamine coating.

- Heat Protection: Use coasters or heat-resistant pads under hot items to prevent damage to the desktop.
- Weight Distribution: Distribute weight evenly across the desktop and shelves. Avoid concentrating heavy items in one spot.
- Regular Checks: Periodically check all screws and fasteners to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary.
