4. Assembly Instructions

Follow these steps carefully to assemble your HLDIRECT Gaming Desk. It is recommended to have a second person assist with some steps, especially when flipping the desk.

  1. Unpack and Verify: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Lay them out on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches. Verify all parts against the package contents list.
  2. Attach Center Support Beam: Secure the main center support beam to the underside of the desktop panel using the provided screws. Ensure it is aligned correctly.
  3. Assemble Desk Legs: Attach the Z-shaped desk legs to the desktop panel. Use the provided screws and washers. Caution: Do not overtighten screws, especially with power tools, to avoid stripping threads.
  4. Install Leg Braces: Attach the diagonal braces between the Z-shaped legs and the center support beam. Secure them with bolts and nuts, tightening them once both ends are in place.
  5. Attach Cup Holder and Headphone Hook: Screw the cup holder and headphone hook into their designated positions on the underside of the desktop. Each requires one screw.
  6. Install Adjustable Leg Screws: While the desk is still upside down, screw the four adjustable leg screws (leveling feet) into the bottom of each leg.
  7. Flip the Desk: With assistance, carefully flip the desk right side up and place it in its desired location.
  8. Install LED Light Strips: Thread the wires of the LED light strips through the designated holes on the desktop edges. Align the strips and secure them with the small screws using a manual Phillips head screwdriver. Do not use a drill for these screws to prevent overtightening.
  9. Insert Cable Management Grommet: Place the circular cable management grommet into the pre-drilled hole on the desktop.
  10. Connect LED Wires: Connect all the LED light strip wires together underneath the desk. Use the adhesive cable holders to neatly secure the wires to the underside of the desktop.
