Frequently Asked Questions - WorkFit-DL 48 Ergotron

What is the weight capacity of the WorkFit-DL 48?

The weight capacity for the 48" x 29" worksurface is up to 50 lbs (22.7 kg) including the cable tray. Do not exceed this limit.

How do I adjust the lift strength?

Raise the desk to full height, open the adjustment doors on the back of each leg, and use a 14 mm socket drill or wrench to turn the adjustment bolts. Turn left to decrease tension, right to increase. Adjust both legs equally.

Do I need to remove the stop screws before using the desk?

Yes, remove all 4 stop screws (2 from legs, 2 from brake) before installing equipment. Save them for shipping or storage.

What should I do if the desk is too difficult or too easy to raise?

Adjust the lift strength using the bolts on each leg. Follow the adjustment steps in the manual to match the counterbalance to your equipment weight.

Can I mount accessories on the sides?

Accessories must stay within the footprint of the desk (front and rear). Do not mount past the worksurface edges to avoid tipping.

How much cable slack should I leave?

Leave at least 20 inches (508 mm) of slack in all equipment cables to allow full height motion.

What is the recommended ergonomic setup?

Position the top of the screen slightly below eye level, keyboard at elbow height, and screen about 20 inches (508 mm) from your face. Tilt screen to reduce glare.

Can I adjust the desk while it is tipped over?

No! Only perform adjustments while the desk is upright. Tipping it may cause the lift engine to expand rapidly and cause injury.

How do I prepare the desk for shipping or storage?

First minimize lift tension (turn bolts fully left), lower desk to lowest position, then re-insert all 4 stop screws.

What tools are needed for assembly?

You will need a 14 mm socket drill or wrench, and a screwdriver (likely Phillips). The manual shows using a socket drill for adjustment.

Adjustment Step

Important! You will need to adjust this product after installation is complete. Make sure all your equipment is properly installed on the product before attempting adjustments. This product should move smoothly and easily through the full range of motion and stay where you set it. If movements are too easy or difficult or if product does not stay in desired positions, follow the adjustment instructions to create smooth and easy movements. Depending on your product and the adjustment, it may take many turns to notice a difference. Any time equipment is added or removed from this product, resulting in a change in the weight of the mounted load, you should repeat these adjustment steps to ensure safe and optimum operation.

Test Lift strength by raising and lowering desk. If it is too easy or too difficult to lift/lower, then follow the next set of adjustment steps to properly counterbalance the lift strength with the weight of the mounted equipment.

WARNING! DO NOT tip desk over to adjust. Only perform adjustment while desk is upright. Failure to follow these instructions may cause the lift engine to expand rapidly and may result in equipment damage and or personal injury.

First you will need to raise the desk all the way to the highest position. Release brake and lift up.

Adjustment Step

On the back of each leg, push in the adjustment doors to access the adjustment bolts.

NOTE: The covers on the legs will not open unless the worksurface has been lifted to it's full height. The worksurface will not lower unless the covers have been completely closed.

Use either a socket drill or a socket wrench to adjust the bolts. A socket drill is recommended due to the adjustment bolts needing many turns before noticing a difference in lift strength. Make sure you are adjusting the lift strength for both legs equally.

Adjust the riser on each leg and check with a level to make sure the work surface is even.

Your Installation is Complete

The following steps are for shipping or storing your cart.

APPENDIX A - Minimize Lift Tension
