Stacking the Units together
The Rubber Feet
The four self-adhesive rubber feet prevent your hub from
moving around on your desk. Only stick the feet to the
marked areas at each corner of the underside of your hub if
you intend to place the unit directly on top of the desk. Do
not fix the feet if you are going to use the clip.
The Stacking Clip
The blue stacking clip allows you to stack your
OfficeConnect units together neatly and securely.
CAUTION: You can stack up to a maximum of four
units. Smaller units must be stacked above larger
units.
To fit the clip:
1
Place your unit on a flat surface.
2
Fit the clip across the top of the unit, as shown in
Figure 2 (picture 1), ensuring that the longer sections of
the fastening pieces are pointing downwards.
3
Align the fastening pieces over the slots found on each
side of the unit.
4
Push the clip down gently to secure it, ensuring the
fastening pieces snap into the slots on the unit.
To fit another unit:
1
Rest the second unit on top of the clip and align it with
the front of the unit below.
2
Press down gently on the unit to secure it onto the clip,
ensuring the fastening pieces fit into the slots on the unit
below, as shown in Figure 2 (picture 2).

Stacking Your Units Together
To remove the clip:
1
Remove the top unit together with the clip. If you hook
a finger around one of the the fastening pieces and then
pull it gently from out of the slot, the clip should come
away with the upper unit attached to it.
2
Push the clip in the center, so it bends towards the base
of the unit, and then separate once the clip is loose.
