STEP 1. PREPARE OUTER MODESTY PANEL

Attach the Upper Trough (C2) and Lower Trough (C3) to the Outer Modesty Panel (C1) using 6 Screws (H1). Attach the 2 Modesty Panel Brackets (C4) to the Outer Modesty Panel using 2 Screws (H1) per bracket. Do not fully tighten these screws.

Tighten Trough Screws (H1) with Hex Wrench (T1). Attach the Power Strip (C5) using 4 Wood Screws (H2). Tighten with Phillips Screwdriver.

Diagram shows the Outer Modesty Panel (C1) with components like Upper Trough (C2), Lower Trough (C3), Modesty Panel Brackets (C4), and Power Strip (C5) being attached using Screws (H1, H2). Tools like Hex Wrench (T1) and Phillips Screwdriver are indicated.

STEP 2. PREPARE CABINETS

Partially thread 4 Screws (H1) into the lower threaded inserts in each set of 3 threaded inserts of both the Left Cabinet (C7) and Right Cabinet (C8). Leave about a 6mm gap between the screw head and the cabinet.

Install 4 Standoffs (C6), threading 2 Standoffs into the top of each Cabinet. Fully Tighten.

Diagram illustrates the Left Cabinet (C7) and Right Cabinet (C8). Screws (H1) are shown partially inserted into the bottom. Standoffs (C6) are being screwed into the top of each cabinet. A close-up highlights the required 6mm gap for the screws.

STEP 3. INSTALL OUTER MODESTY PANEL TO CABINETS

Space the Left Cabinet (C7) and Right Cabinet (C8) apart, using the Outer Modesty Panel as a guide for spacing.

Attach the Outer Modesty Panel Assembly by hooking the slotted holes of each Wire Trough onto the pre-threaded Screws (H1).

Insert 8 Screws (H1) to fully secure each Wire Trough. Fully tighten all screws with the Hex Wrench (T1).

Diagram shows the two cabinets (C7, C8) positioned apart. The Outer Modesty Panel Assembly is shown being attached to the cabinets via pre-threaded screws (H1). A second diagram confirms the secure attachment with screws (H1).

STEP 4. PREPARE LEGS

Attach the 4 Leg Plates (C9) to the 2 Legs (C10) using 8 Screws (H3). Tighten with Hex Wrench (T1).

Diagram shows Leg Plates (C9) being fastened to Legs (C10) using Screws (H3) and the Hex Wrench (T1).

STEP 5. ATTACH LEGS TO CABINETS

?‍?‍? With the help of another person, carefully rotate the desk assembly onto its back.

IMPORTANT: Place at least 2" (50mm) of material under each Cabinet. Leftover honeycomb from the packaging works well for this.

Attach each Leg Assembly to the underside of each Cabinet using Screws (H4). Tighten with the Hex Wrench (T1).

Diagram shows the desk assembly on its back. A note indicates placing at least 2" (50mm) of material underneath. Leg Assemblies are shown being attached to the underside of the cabinets with Screws (H4) using the Hex Wrench (T1).

STEP 6. ATTACH TOP PANEL TO CABINET

On a non-marring surface, such as carpet, arrange the Top Panel (C11), as shown, so the side with the Wire Grommet is closer to the Desk Assembly.

Attach the Keyboard Drawer (C12) to the Top Panel (C11) with 4 Screws (H5). Tighten with Hex Wrench (T1). The Keyboard Drawer should be facing away from the desk.

Diagram shows the Top Panel (C11) being prepared. The Keyboard Drawer (C12) is shown attached to the underside of the Top Panel (C11) with Screws (H5) using the Hex Wrench (T1).

STEP 7. ATTACH TOP PANEL TO CABINET

?‍?‍? With the help of another person, carefully lift the Top Panel (C11) and hook the Connection Plates onto the Standoffs (C6). Ensure each Standoff is properly seated in each Connection Plate.

Insert 4 Screws (H1) into each Modesty Panel Bracket (C4). Tighten with Hex Wrench (T1).

Diagram shows the Top Panel (C11) being carefully lowered and attached to the cabinet assembly. Connection plates on the Top Panel hook onto Standoffs (C6). Screws (H1) are used to secure Modesty Panel Brackets (C4) to the Top Panel, tightened with the Hex Wrench (T1).

STEP 8. ATTACH DRAWER PULLS, TRAY, & FILE HANGING BARS

?‍?‍? With the help of another person, carefully flip the desk onto its feet.

Open each drawer and install the 4 Drawer Pulls (C14) using 8 Screws (H6). Tighten with Phillips Screwdriver.

Place the Grommet Lid (C15) in the Grommet Hole.

Diagram shows the desk upright. Drawer Pulls (C14) are attached to drawers using Screws (H6) and a Phillips Screwdriver. The Grommet Lid (C15) is shown being placed into the grommet hole.

STEP 9. INSTALL MODESTY PANEL

After arranging any wires to your liking, install the Inner Modesty Panel (C13).

Diagram shows the Inner Modesty Panel (C13) being installed at the rear of the desk, behind the drawers.

STEP 9. INSTALL MODESTY PANEL ACCESSORIES

Press the File Clips (C18) onto the ends of the File Hanging Bars (C17). Place the Drawer Tray (C16) and File Hanging Bars in the drawers where desired.

Diagram shows File Clips (C18) being attached to File Hanging Bars (C17). The Drawer Tray (C16) and File Hanging Bars (C17) are shown being placed into the desk drawers.

FINE TUNING LEVEL DESK

Once the unit is completely assembled and in its final position, adjust the levelers using Leveler Wrench (T2).

Using a level (not provided), level your cabinet first side to side and then front to back. If your cabinet is on carpeting, check your front to back level after loading the cabinet and opening the heaviest drawers. This will ensure the cabinet remains level during operation and reduce the risk of tip-over.

Diagram shows a leveler being adjusted with the Leveler Wrench (T2). Text indicates to [Dial Down] for adjustment.
