SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS The power socket/outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS - Please refer to the attached Installation Instructions and the provided User Guide. USER-MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS - The receptacle power block is equipped with a circuit breaker that will shut off power in an overload condition. Press to reset the circuit breaker to restore power. POLARIZED PLUG INSTRUCTIONS (Series 8 only) - To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this furnishing has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other) like the plug illustrated in Figure. This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electricial to install the proper outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS (Series 5 only) - This product must be grounded. Connect this appliance to a properly grounded outlet only. If it should malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. This product is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. DANGER - Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or serviceman if you are in doubt as to whether the product is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the product - if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. This product is for use on a nominal 0-V circuit and has a grounding plug that looks like the plug illustrated in sketch A in Figure. Make sure that the product is connected to an outlet having the same configuration as the plug. No adapter should be used with this product.

Prepare a large open space to assemble the table. Sweep the floor! Screws and small parts can damage the worksurface. Put down a CLEAN shipping blanket to protect the worksurfaces. Unpack the worksurfaces and place on the shipping blanket upside-down. REMEMBER - You're looking at the UNDERSIDE of the worksurfaces. Are you sure which side is left or right and front or rear?

Series 5 Table Assembly Determine Switch Position on your Table The switch can be located on either on either side of your table, but the switch comes with a short cable to minimize clutter. So, be sure to always locate the master motor near the switch location. NOTE: It does not matter which side of the table the master or slave motor goes on. Switch & Master Motor on Right: Switch & Master Motor on Left: SLAVE MOTOR SLAVE MOTOR SWITCH SWITCH MASTER MOTOR MASTER MOTOR Page 8 of 38
Series 5 Table Assembly (cont.) Identify the Master and Slave Motors The master motor and slave motor look the same, except for the connection panel at the back. NOTE: The power supply converts 0V AC from the wall outlet to 4V DC. The series 5 motors operate on 4V DC. IMPORTANT! The master motor has one other key difference. It also has a hidden kill switch. This kill switch is inside the front mounting hole. If the front mounting bolt is not properly installed, the table will not operate! CORRECT! WRONG!

Series 5 Table Assembly (cont.) Installing Driveshafts Driveshafts are retained using cap nuts, which grip the driveshaft ends and prevent them from backing out of the lifting columns. CAP NUT (with plastic cover) CAP NUT CAP NUT Tables require one cap nut mounted outside of each lifting column. The driveshaft assembly is thus retained in both directions. FINISHED ASSEMBLY Place cap nut on a flat, hard surface and push driveshaft into it. With lifting columns pushed all the way down, feed driveshaft through each lifting column, from outside, until cap nut bottoms out on each lifting column. Page 0 of 38

(see page 6) Install M6 x 80 bolts & M6 nuts to each motor as shown. Driveshafts and Lifting Column Synchronization Series 5 lifting columns and motors must be synchronized before installing the driveshafts. Series 5 motors are shipped from the factory in the "all the way down" position. Before inserting the driveshafts, ensure ALL LIFTING COLUMNS are pushed all the way down (fully compressed).

This will mushroom the end of the hex shaft. Ensure all driveshafts are inserted into driveshaft tubes. Tighten set screws very tightly with a 3mm hex wrench. NOTE: DO NOT overtighten the set screws. Overtightening can strip the threads in the driveshaft tube. 6b 6c Page of 38

POWER SUPPLY NOTE: Assemblies with a Nexsis Power Access Door Package require the Power Supply to be installed at an alternate location as shown. Series 5 Table Assembly (cont.) Installing Switch & Power Supply Locate the two () pilot holes for mounting the power supply. Partially install two () #8-5 x 5/8" screws per the diagram shown below. 3 NOTE: Use the pre-drilled pilot holes to mount the power supply in a way that assures accessories can be clamped to the worksurface, and allow all cables to reach. If a different power supply location is desired, use the template below, which matches the the power supply's keyhole slots and mm hole spacing. Fit the keyhole slots of the power supply over the screws, and slide over into place. Attach the switch at the front of the worksurface, adjacent to the leg with the master motor.

Series 8 Table Assembly (cont.) USER GUIDE Finishing the Table Assembly (cont.) 5 6 5 Before use, the table must be completely leveled, front-to-back and side-to-side using the height adjustable glides. Failure to do this could cause the lifting columns to bind. 6 Before articulation, you must synchronize the lifting columns as outlined below. Synchronizing the Lifting Columns Prior to initial use of the height adjustment function you must "synchronize the system". Press the Down arrow until the worksurface comes to a stop at the lowest position. Release the Down arrow. Press and hold the down arrow for approximately 5 seconds while the table synchronizes itself. The surface will quickly lower itself approximately 5mm, then rise approximately 5mm and finally settle back to its lowest position. After performing this function, the movement of all lifting columns is synchronized by software inside the control box. In the unlikely event that an error occurs, reset the control unit by pressing the Up and Down buttons at the same time for 5 seconds. Then repeat the synchronizing sequence as previously outlined above. GLIDES Standard Controller NOTE: Mounting of CPU and CPU holders: Maximum height for the units cannot exceed 0-/".
