How to install Humanscale 6G Keyboard Mechanism
Step 1: Prepare your workspace by ensuring there is a clear underside of the desk area where the mounting system will be attached. Confirm that your desk can accommodate under-desk mounting and is free of obstructions that could hinder movement of the keyboard tray.
Step 2: Align the mounting brackets or plate supplied with the 6G mechanism to the designated underside location. Use appropriate screws and tools to secure the brackets firmly to the desk structure, making sure the surface is level and the brackets are aligned with the edge of the desk for optimal tray clearance.
Step 3: Attach the 6G keyboard mechanism to the mounted brackets, ensuring a secure and stable connection. Check that the mechanism sits square to the desk and that there is no undue wobble when the tray is extended or retracted.
Step 4: Install the keyboard tray into the mechanism, adjusting the height and tilt to your preferred typing position. The 6G supports adjustable positioning to tailor reach and angle for comfort during long typing sessions or rapid gaming bursts.
Step 5: If you opt for the drawer accessory, align and attach the drawer according to the provided guidelines. Verify that the drawer slides smoothly and locks securely if your configuration calls for it.
Step 6: route cables neatly to prevent interference with movement and to maintain a clean workspace. Test the glide by extending and retracting the keyboard tray several times, ensuring consistent performance and stability in both resting and active typing states.
Step 7: Perform a final check of all fasteners, confirm the assembly is level, and verify that the keyboard sits at a comfortable distance from the user. With the installation complete, your workspace should benefit from improved posture, reduced wrist strain, and a clutter-free desk footprint.
