D.
Once all of these screws have been started, you can now tighten the qty 8 Machine Screws
(Part #11) from Step C and the qty 8 Machine Screws (Part #11) described in Step B (16 screws in total).
E.
The Crossbar Center Rails (Part #4) are optional. They provide more stability, but if not needed they
can be skipped during installation or removed later. If your desktop is less than 43” wide the center rails
should not be installed, as they will cause the frame to be too wide for the desktop. If you are installing a
keyboard tray the center rails should not be installed, as they will interfere with placement of the track.
Slide Crossbar Center Rails (Part #4) back into Crossbar Ends (Part #3). Ensure the slots of the Crossbar
Center Rails are facing inward.
The slot on the Crossbar Center Rail is offset;
it will need to be oriented in a specific way
to allow for the machine screws already
installed. Make sure that the Crossbar
Center Rail (Part #4) can slide all the
way to the end of the Crossbar End
(Part #3). If it does not, take the Crossbar
Center Rail (Part #4) out and flip it over,
with the slots facing inward.
F.
Attach each Foot (Part #2)
with qty 4 Machine Screws (Part #11)
and tighten bolts in a cross pattern.
G.
Your desktop may or may not be pre-drilled. Please check both sides of the desktop before placing
the desk base on it for pre-drilling! Carefully place the upside down desk base on the underside
of the desktop.
Note: minimum top size: 43” wide x 24” deep
Adjust the width of the base to fit the desktop by sliding
the two halves outward (42.125” to 74.75” max).
Place the base where you want it. Some will want the frame to be all
the way to the edge of the desk. We recommend leaving at least 1/2”
of desktop width (on each side) protruding beyond the frame width.
The desk feet are deeper than the side brackets.
If your top is 25.5”-27.5” deep and you want the
rear edge of the top in line with the rear edges
of the feet, offset your desktop toward the back.

Do not use the screw holes as a point of reference.
