Assembly Manual
Follow the steps in order. Plate count and a few steps change with keyboard size — the notes call out what to skip on 60/65% builds versus 75% and 99% builds. Take your time on the rail lock and don’t force any click.

Assembly
Slide the toothed Slide Rail through the Rail Clip — the bigger piece runs through the smaller one. Needed on every build, all sizes.
Insert the long Slide Rail into the left and right base plates first, then slide the Rail Clip to the middle and insert it.
Locks come in two sizes — large and medium. Pick whichever fits your keyboard best. To insert, align the lock with the channel and gently rock it side to side, lowering it in steps. To remove, do the same rocking motion side to side.
This piece locks the rails in place with a horizontal motion. Lower it until it clicks. Don’t force it — if it doesn’t click easily, the rails aren’t in a lockable position; adjust them and try again.
Shown here on the right side, but the mouse base can go on either side — the procedure is identical, just mirrored. Drop the mouse base plate in so it attaches vertically to the base plate, then fasten the three locations shown in red with the Chicago screws provided.
Insert the handle and slide it toward a base plate.
If a resizable plate is needed to fit your keyboard, insert it now. If not, insert the remaining base plate.
Fasten the resizable plate or the base plates together. Using a resizable plate takes 4 screws; without one, just 2.
Lower the trim pieces into place and slot them in.
Fasten the four screws shown here — two on each side — to lock the trim in place. At this point a keyboard can be inserted and adjusted.
Mouse
These two components affect mouse operation: the mouse attachment and the mousepad’s locking mechanism. Add magnets to both — more magnets means more holding force. The mouse attachment sticks to your mouse via double-sided tape; we recommend placing it on the front or back of the mouse.
The locking mechanism works via pressure against the grid. Find your preferred position and place the puck there.
Finished
The last step: lower the mousepad, the gamertag cover, and the right base locking mechanism cover into the plates.
Extras
Trim rails, handle, lock inserts, and top plate separated from the base shell.
