Desk Back¶
OpenDeskLab can be configured with either a tall back or a short one. The tall back provides support for embedded lighting and connection to the room ventilation system, while the short back only goes up to the Cable Routing height, allowing the user (and the superviser) to have visual contact with the installed facilities.
Warning
In some countries it may be against the regulations to install a short back for safety reasons. It is up to the builder to choose the correct version if safety rules must apply.
The width of the back depends on the number of modules that the desk will be comprised. The assembly procedure however remains the same, although more bolts, locks and dowel pins are needed in the bigger desks.
Important
- Tools Needed:
- Pozidriv Screwdriver
Tall back¶
Assembly Procedure¶
To assemble the back panel of the desk, all you have to do is insert the Cam Bolts, the Wooden Dowel Pins and the Cam Locks (without locking them).
Drawings¶
Drawings are provided for the three module-wide version, for the other versions nothing changes besides the overall length of the module.
