SETTING UP YOUR GOLDTOUCH ADJUSTABLE KEYBOARD
To decrease ulnar deviation when using the Goldtouch Adjustable Keyboard:
release the latch handle by pulling it open
seperate the front edges of the two keyboard sections to the desired angle
and lock it by pushing the handle back to its closed position.
Important:
After making this adjustment check that your elbows are at a 90° and your forearms are horizontal.
If they are not, alter your seat or desk heights.

Splay & Ulnar Deviation Adjustment
There is usually a discrepancy between your shoulder width and keyboard width when you place you fingers on the home
row of keys. You compensate by angling your wrists outward (Figure 1.2 - ulnar deviation).
Rather than have this happen, the Goldtouch Adjustable Keyboard splits the horizontal plane relieving this awkward
posture. The aim is to allow your wrists to be straight which in turn will increase your comfort level.
