Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the desktop and frame with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the finish.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect all fasteners (screws, bolts) to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten if necessary.
• Moving Parts: The gas spring mechanism is designed for maintenance-free operation. Do not attempt to lubricate or disassemble it.
• Weight Distribution: Always distribute weight evenly on the desktop to prevent strain on the mechanism and ensure stability.

Troubleshooting

Table is Wobbly

• Check Connections: Ensure all screws connecting the desktop, support column, and base frame are securely tightened.
• Even Surface: Verify that the table is on a flat and even surface. Uneven flooring can cause wobbling.
• Weight Distribution: Ensure weight on the desktop is evenly distributed and within the 17.6 lbs limit.

Height Adjustment is Difficult or Not Working

• Lever Engagement: Ensure the height adjustment lever is fully pressed when attempting to adjust the height.
• Overload: Remove any excessive weight from the desktop. The gas spring mechanism works best within its specified load capacity.
• Obstructions: Check for any obstructions around the support column that might impede movement.

Desktop Tilt is Not Holding Position

• Tighten Mechanism: Ensure the tilt adjustment knob or lever is fully tightened after setting the desired angle.
• Overload: Excessive weight on the tilted portion of the desktop can cause it to slip. Ensure items are within the weight limit and placed securely.

Casters Not Rolling Smoothly

• Clear Obstructions: Check for any debris (hair, dust, carpet fibers) caught in the caster wheels.
• Floor Type: While designed for various surfaces, very thick carpets may impede smooth rolling.
