Safety Information

Please observe the following safety guidelines to prevent injury or damage to the product:

• Always assemble the desk on a flat, stable surface to ensure proper alignment and stability.
• Ensure all parts are securely fastened according to the assembly instructions. Loose connections can lead to instability.
• This desk is heavy and large. It may tip over if not properly assembled or if items are placed unevenly on the desktop. Distribute weight evenly.
• Keep the desk away from direct heat sources, such as radiators or fireplaces, to prevent material damage.
• Do not place excessively heavy objects on the desktop that could exceed its weight capacity (900 lbs) or cause it to tip over.
• Use caution when moving the assembled desk. It is recommended that two people move the desk to prevent injury or damage.

Assembly Instructions

Assembly typically takes less than 15 minutes with the included hex key. It is recommended to have two people for easier assembly due to the desk's size and weight.

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Lay them out on a clean, soft surface (e.g., carpet or a blanket) to prevent scratches. Verify all parts listed in the "Package Contents" section are present.
2. Assemble the Frame: Attach the horizontal support bars to the vertical metal legs using the provided screws and hex key. Ensure the legs are oriented correctly, facing each other, to allow the desktop to sit flush. Do not overtighten screws at this stage to allow for minor adjustments.
3. Attach Adjustable Leg Pads: Screw the adjustable leg pads into the bottom of each leg. These can be adjusted later to level the desk.
4. Position Desktop Panels: Carefully place the desktop panels onto the assembled metal frame. The desktop is constructed of multiple panels designed for simple splicing. Align the panels with the pre-drilled holes on the frame.
5. Secure Desktop: Fasten the desktop panels to the frame using the remaining screws. Once all screws are in place, gradually tighten all screws on the frame and desktop until secure. Avoid excessive force to prevent damage.
6. Apply Corner Protectors: If included, place the clear rubber protectors on the desk corners to mitigate sharp edges.
7. Level the Desk: Move the desk to its desired location. Adjust the leg pads by twisting them until the desk is stable and level on your floor.

Important Tip: When attaching the middle bars on the bottom of the legs, install the black plastic feet caps into the bottom leg bars before fully tightening the bolts for the middle support bars. This prevents difficulty in installing them later if the bolts are already tightened.

Operating Instructions

Your Tribesigns Modern Computer Desk is designed for versatile use in various settings.

• Workstation Use: The large 70.8 x 31.5 inch desktop provides ample space for computers, monitors, printers, and other office equipment.

Maintenance

Proper care will help maintain the appearance and functionality of your desk.

• Cleaning: Wipe the desktop and frame with a dry cloth. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth followed by a dry cloth can be used. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the finish.
• Spills: Immediately wipe up any spills to prevent water damage or staining to the laminated MDF desktop.
• Fasteners: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary to maintain stability.
• Heat Protection: Use coasters or protective pads under hot items to prevent damage to the desktop surface.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your desk, refer to the following common solutions:

• Desk is Wobbly:
  • Ensure all assembly screws are securely tightened.
  • Adjust the individual leg pads by twisting them until the desk is stable and level on the floor.
  • Verify the desk is on a flat surface.
• Gaps between Desktop Panels:
  • During assembly, ensure the desktop panels are pushed together firmly before tightening screws.
  • Loosen the desktop screws slightly, push panels together, then retighten.
• Difficulty with Leg Pad Installation:
  • Ensure the black plastic feet caps are inserted into the bottom leg bars before fully tightening the bolts for the middle support bars.
• Missing or Damaged Parts:
  • Contact Tribesigns customer service immediately for assistance.
