4. Setup and Assembly

- Fasteners: Occasionally check all screws and fasteners to ensure they are tight. Retighten if necessary.
- Motor Care: The dual motors are designed for long-term use. Avoid overloading the desk beyond its 220 lbs capacity to prevent strain on the motors.
7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Desk does not move. | Power cable disconnected; control panel error; motor overload. | Check power connections. Unplug and replug the desk. Reduce weight on the desk. Refer to the specific error codes in your assembly manual if displayed. |
| Desk moves unevenly or makes unusual noises. | Uneven weight distribution; loose fasteners; obstruction. | Distribute weight evenly. Check and tighten all assembly fasteners. Ensure no objects are obstructing the lifting columns. |
| Monitor arm does not fit or damages desktop. | C-clamp size incompatibility; excessive clamping force. | Ensure your C-clamp monitor arm is compatible with the 2.4-inch extended rear edge. Use appropriate clamping force; overtightening can damage the desktop material. Consider alternative mounting solutions if necessary. |
| Cables are messy despite management features. | Insufficient use of provided tools; too many cables. | Utilize both cable management trays, grommet holes, and cable clips. Consider additional third-party cable management accessories like zip ties or hook-and-loop fasteners for a cleaner setup. |
