Assembling the Base and Legs
Preparing the Components: Before commencing assembly, ensure you have all the necessary components and tools. The Flexispot desk package typically includes the desktop, base, legs, screws, and an Allen wrench.
Pre-Drilling the Holes: To facilitate the assembly process, pre-drill holes in the desktop and base. This involves aligning the base on the desktop, marking the screw holes, and drilling shallow holes using a power drill or a hand drill.
Choosing the Base Orientation: The base of the Flexispot desk can be oriented in two ways. The “T” orientation allows for a more compact desk with legs positioned closer to the edges. The “H” orientation provides a wider desk with legs placed further apart. Choose the orientation that best suits your space and preferences.
| Base Orientation | Description |
|---|---|
| T | Legs positioned closer to the edges, resulting in a more compact desk. |
| H | Legs placed further apart, providing a wider desk with more legroom. |
Attaching the Legs: Once the holes are pre-drilled, attach the legs to the base. Align the legs with the holes in the base and insert the screws. Use the Allen wrench to tighten the screws securely.
Positioning the Desktop: Carefully place the desktop on the base, aligning the pre-drilled holes. Insert the screws through the holes in the desktop and into the base. Tighten the screws using the Allen wrench, ensuring the desktop is securely attached to the base.
