Assembly Instructions

The STRICH SKT-01 set is designed for quick and easy assembly. The bench comes pre-assembled. Follow these steps to assemble the keyboard stand:

1. Step 1: Prepare Components. Lay out the keyboard stand frame, the two keyboard support arms, the 8 mounting screws, and the Allen wrench on a clean, flat surface.
2. Step 2: Attach Support Arms. Identify the top ends of the X-style stand frame. Align the holes on the keyboard support arms with the corresponding holes on the stand. Secure each arm using four mounting screws. Ensure the arms are oriented correctly so the keyboard can rest flat.
3. Step 3: Secure Locking Straps. Attach the two locking straps to the designated points on the stand, typically near the top support arms. These straps help secure your keyboard to the stand.

Adjustment and Operation

Adjusting the Keyboard Stand Height

The keyboard stand features a quick-release locking system for easy height adjustment. It offers 7 height levels, accommodating various playing positions and keyboard sizes (54-key, 61-key, 88-key).

1. Locate the quick-release lever or knob on the central X-joint of the stand.
2. Loosen or pull the lever/knob to disengage the locking mechanism.
3. Adjust the stand to your desired height by expanding or compressing the X-frame. The stand can be adjusted from approximately 12.00 to 37.41 inches.
4. Once the desired height is reached, ensure the locking mechanism clicks securely into place. Test the stability before placing your keyboard.

Adjusting the Piano Bench Height

The piano bench also features an X-style design with a quick-release mechanism, offering 3 height options for optimal comfort.

1. Locate the adjustment mechanism on the central X-joint of the bench.
2. Loosen or pull the mechanism to allow the bench to expand or compress. The bench can be adjusted from approximately 17.71 to 20.86 inches.
