5.1 Adjustable Desktop Angle

The tabletop can be adjusted from 0° (flat) to 65° to suit various activities. This tiltable design enhances usability for different tasks.

• 0°-10°: Ideal for writing and general desk use.
• 10°-30°: Suitable for reading or using a laptop.
• 30°-65°: Optimal for drawing, sketching, and painting.

To adjust the angle, loosen the locking knobs on both sides of the table frame, carefully lift or lower the tabletop to the desired position, and then securely tighten the knobs. The integrated pencil ledge helps hold materials in place when the top is tilted.
