Step 2: Assemble the Desk Frame
Attach the metal legs to the main support bars using the provided screws and the Allen wrench. Ensure all connections are secure but do not fully tighten until the entire frame is assembled.
Step 3: Attach the Main Tabletop
Carefully place the main tabletop onto the assembled frame. Align the pre-drilled holes and secure the tabletop to the frame using the appropriate screws. Once the tabletop is in place, fully tighten all frame screws.
Step 4: Install the Monitor Stand Shelf
Position the monitor stand shelf on the designated supports on the main tabletop. Secure it with screws. This shelf is elevated by 4.5 inches, providing an ergonomic viewing height.
Step 5: Assemble and Insert Fabric Drawers
Unfold the two fabric drawers and insert the hardboard bottom for sturdiness. Slide the assembled drawers into their designated slots under the main tabletop. These drawers do not require complex assembly beyond unfolding.

Step 6: Install the Keyboard Tray
Attach the keyboard tray rails to the underside of the main tabletop. Slide the 23.6-inch wide keyboard tray onto the rails. Ensure it slides smoothly. A baffle is included to prevent the keyboard from slipping off.

Step 7: Connect the LED Light Strip and Power Outlet
Adhere the LED light strip to the underside of the monitor stand shelf as indicated in the instructions. Connect the LED strip to its controller and then to the built-in power outlet. Plug the desk's main power cord (6.6 ft) into a wall outlet.

Using the Built-in Power Outlet
The desk features a built-in power strip with 3 AC Outlets (120V/12A) and 2 USB Ports (5V/2A). Simply plug your electronic devices such as laptops, monitors, phones, or tablets directly into these outlets for convenient power access. Ensure the desk's main power cord is plugged into a functioning wall outlet.
Keyboard Tray Usage
The 23.6-inch wide pull-out keyboard tray accommodates full-size 108-key or 87-key keyboards along with a mouse. Pull the tray out gently when in use and push it back in to save space and protect your keyboard from dust when not needed. It can also serve as an additional storage drawer.
Monitor Stand Functionality
The elevated monitor stand shelf (4.5 inches high) is designed to position your computer monitors at an ergonomic height. This helps you look directly at your screens rather than down, reducing neck strain and promoting a more comfortable working or gaming posture. The 7.8-inch width can hold two monitors or provide extra storage space.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the desk surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could damage the laminated finish.
- Fabric Drawers: The fabric drawers are easy to clean. Spot clean with a mild detergent and water if necessary. Allow to air dry completely.
- Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability.
- Electrical Components: Keep the power outlet and USB ports free from dust and debris. Do not expose electrical components to liquids.
