EasyLift Sit/Stand Desk Basic

The EasyLift Sit/Stand Desk Basic from Key Ovation can be used to convert almost any standard fixed-height desk into a sit-stand desk. The EasyLift Sit/Stand Desk Basic lifts directly out of the box and onto the desk and in seconds the conversion is complete. There is generally no need to modify the existing desk space with the possible exception of overhead cabinets. EasyLift Sit/Stand Desk Basic offers keyboard height adjustment from 0.6" to 15.6" above the mounting surface height - with a total of 40 increments to choose from. The upper work surface is positioned 4" higher than the keyboard tray and moves in concert with the height adjustment. Monitors, reference materials, etc. can be placed directly on the work surface.

The EasyLift Basic has two unique features not commonly available in other similar products. The first is that the lifting tension is adjustable via dual front-mounted dials. This means operators are able to fine tune the lifting capacity to match the weight of the documents and peripherals that are in use. For example, if they happen to have a heavy binder on the EasyLift they can increase the tension to ensure that it requires minimal effort to raise the worksurface. The second feature is a sliding keyboard tray that stores back into the unit when not in use. This feature ensures a greater stability than other solutions which cantilever up and out from the desk when raised for standing. In the case of the EasyLift Basic only the tray moves out, leaving the main unit safely centered on the desk. It is also an alternative to those solutions which, although they do not cantilever outwards, have a keyboard that is fixed and therefore always extends out from the desk.

The maximum lifting capacity for the D EasyLift Sit/Stand Desk Basic is 40 pounds, easily sufficient for any standard office application, even with multiple monitors. The 35" x 24" upper worksurface offers plenty of space for documents and the 26" x 11" keyboard tray will accommodate most standard keyboard and mouse combinations.

• Matte White Finish: Unlike the vast majority of sit-stand desk retrfit units, the EasyLift Sit-Stand Desk Basic features a lightly-textured Matte White finish that that will blend well into most decor. It also aids in creating a brighter workspace.
• Free Standing (No Drilling or Clamping): The EasyLift Sit-Stand Desk Basic is ideal for situations where drilling into the desk or clamping onto its edge are undesirable. The footprint of the base allows the unit to be positioned on a desk top without creating a tipping hazard. Pads underneath the base prevent scuffing or scratching of the desktop.
• Pre-Assembled: The EasyLift Sit-Stand Desk Basic lifts directly from packaging to desktop - no assembly is required.
• Supports Dual Monitors: The 35" wide worksurface provides enough space to support two average size monitors (with stands attached).
• Adjustable Lifting Tension: The EasyLift Sit-Stand Desk Basic features dual front-mounted tension controls that let individuals set the lifting tension to best match the weight load placed on their EasyLift.
• X-Style Vertical Motion: Many retrofit desktop units employ a cantilevering mechanism that moves the worksurface forward as it is raised. This motion pushes one back from the desk and reduces the stability of the unit as it rises. In contrast, the EasyLift Sit-Stand Desk Basic uses an X-Style mechanism which moves the worksurface straight up vertically, preventing the issues above from occurring.
• Pull-Out Keyboard Tray: The Keyboard Tray on the EasyLift Sit-Stand Desk Basic can be stored flush with the front of the upper surface or drawn 3.5" out from the desk. This unique feature allows for customizing of viewing distance from the monitor(s) as well as optimizing space in tight workspaces.
• 40 Height-Adjustment Settings: The EasyLift Basic has an impressive 40 height settings, enough for each person to find that "ideal" keyboard height while standing or leaning.

• To raise or lower the EasyLift Sit-Stand Desk Basic, simultaneously squeeze the release paddles on both sides. With the paddles squeezed, raise or lower the work surface to the desired height and then release the paddles to engage the locking mechanism. The unit will then lock into place at the next highest position.
• Use the Tension Control Dials to customize the lifting capacity to best match the load in place on the EasyLift surface. Leaving the tension set too high will require extra effort when lowering and if the tension is set too low you will need to "lift" the surface when moving to standing, rather than employing the springs to do the lifting for you.
• Move between standing and sitting on a regular basis. If you are just starting out with a sit-stand desk, maintain yourself in the standing position for brief intervals - don't try to stand for extended periods until your body has adjusted and become comfortable.
• If you find standing tiring, consider purchasing a quality anti-fatigue mat which can significantly increase your comfort by enabling your feet and legs to shift slightly while you work.
• Consider a "leaning" style of seat rather than going back to the standard office chair. Using a seat such as this can ease the load on the feet and legs while still providing most of the benefits of the fully upright standing posture.
• Ensure that your monitors are positioned at an appropriate height. A good guideline is to keep the top edge of the monitor equal to or slightly higher than your eye height. This will encourage an upright posture which keeps the head properly balanced and supported by the spine.
