- Tray Extension (Standard Installation): The tray can extend 3.54” (90mm) from the front of the desk edge.
Usage Features:
The keyboard tray offers several key usage features that cater to diverse user needs and desk types:
- Adjustable Positioning: The mount allows the tray to slide in and out from under the desk, and to swivel, providing dynamic positioning for optimal comfort.
- Three Installation Applications:
- Standard Installation: This method positions the keyboard track closest to the front edge of the desk, with the tray extending 3.54” (90mm) from the desk edge. It is ideal for desks without full clearance on the underside. The mounting template (E) is aligned with the desk edge, with the triangle in the back.
- Full Recessed Installation: This option allows the keyboard tray to slide completely underneath the desktop when not in use, providing a clean and uncluttered workspace. It requires adequate space for the keyboard track under the desk. The template (E) is aligned with the desktop edge, with the triangle in the back.
- L-Shaped Desks / Corner Desks: Specifically designed for L-shaped or corner desks, this installation method involves aligning the template (E) with a 90-degree angle marker at the corner of the desktop.
- Wrist Pad (B): A dedicated wrist pad is included to provide ergonomic support and comfort, reducing strain on the wrists during typing. It is attached to the tray (C) near the front edge.
- Easy Assembly: The manual provides clear, step-by-step instructions for assembly, starting with disassembling the mount, then attaching the track to the desktop, assembling the tray, connecting the arm, and finally installing the bumpers and wrist pad.
- Mount (A) and Track (A2): The mount (A) is initially placed upside down, and a lever is loosened to allow the arm (A1) to be slid out from the track (A2). The track (A2) is then securely mounted to the underside of the desktop using screws and washers.
- Connecting Plate (D) and Tray (C): The connecting plate (D) is used to attach the tray (C) to the arm (A1), forming the main keyboard platform.
- Bumpers (S-E): Two bumpers (S-E) are installed into the front corners of the track to provide a soft stop and protect the tray.
Maintenance Features:
While the manual does not explicitly detail maintenance features, the design implies ease of care:
- Durable Construction: The use of metal components for the mount and track suggests a robust and long-lasting product.
- Replaceable Parts: The manual mentions that if any parts are received damaged or defective, the support team can assist with replacements, indicating a commitment to product longevity and user satisfaction.
- Cleaning: The surfaces of the tray and wrist pad can likely be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth to maintain hygiene and appearance.
- Regular Checks: Users are advised to check carefully for missing or defective parts during initial setup, and it is good practice to periodically check the tightness of screws to ensure stability and safety.
