• Be careful not to confuse any of the parts, and be sure to install all parts in the correct direction. Please assemble according to the sequence given below.
• Assembly should be carried out by at least two persons.
• Assemble the stand on a hard and flat floor with ample space.
• Use only the screws provided when assembling the stand. Use of any other screws may result in an inadequate assembly that may cause damage to both the keyboard and the stand.
• Use the stand only after assembly is complete.
  An incomplete assembly may result in overturning of the stand and damage to the keyboard.
• Always place the stand on a flat, stable surface.
  Placing the stand on uneven surfaces may result in it becoming unstable or overturn, causing the keyboard to drop and possibly resulting in injury.

  Placing any object other than the specified keyboard on the stand may result in the object dropping or the stand overturning.
• Do not apply excessive force to the keyboard as it may cause the stand to overturn or the keyboard to drop.
• Make sure the stand is sturdy and safe, and all screws have been tight and firm before use. If not, the stand may overturn, the keyboard may drop, or may result in injury to the user.
• To disassemble, reverse the assembly sequence given below.
