• The black window/partition frame part that attaches to the base
  (This is the part shown being inserted/pressed into position.)

Assembly Instructions (Manufacturer Guidance)

1. Position the base on a stable, flat surface.
   Assemble on a desk/table to avoid slipping or uneven pressure.
2. Hook the right side first (as viewed from the front).
   When facing the base from the front, align the right side of the black frame part and hook/engage it first into the base connection point.
3. While pulling outward, insert the part into place.
   Keeping the right side engaged, gently pull the frame outward (away from the base/connection area) to help alignment, and continue fitting the part into the base.
4. Press firmly to seat the connection.
   Once aligned, press firmly so the part fully inserts into the base.
5. Final check: lightly press to finish.
   The manufacturer notes that a final light press completes the installation. Confirm the frame sits straight and is fully seated with minimal gap at the connection.

Important Notes / Tips

• The fit may feel tight. This can be normal due to manufacturing tolerances.
• Apply pressure near the connection points (the thicker areas). Avoid pressing on thin bars or delicate edges to prevent damage.
• If it will not fit:
  • Re-check alignment (right side must be engaged first)
  • Remove and try again rather than forcing at an angle
  • If you still cannot assemble it safely, please contact our customer support with photos.
