Jerker Desk: supplemental rack - max. weight to load?

Hi there!
Just arrived here - I am from Dresden, Germany.
For several years a got the desk "Jerker" now, extended with several additions (see the photo here http://mardou.dyndns.org/Privat/home.../workspace.jpg)

What I am now trying to find out is the maximum weight to load the supplemental rack you can see on the left of my picture.
Does anyone know what the maximum load is? I want to put the big monitor on that rack and it's weight is about 20 kilogramms. I don't know if the rack is capable to carry that... Maybe I could try, but this is very frightening

Thanks and regards

If you mean the 2 swivel shelves attached to the Jerker, the weight capacity is listed as 66 lbs. They're pretty sturdy.

Re: Jerker Desk: supplemental rack - max. weight to load?

are you certain that they hold 66 lbs?

i'm only double checking because this is the only place that I've seen this information.

i'm putting 40 lb speakers on the 2 swivel shelves... they seems to be plenty sturdy, but it is scary taking the risk.

if anyone can confirm the weight load for the swivel shelves it would be much appreciated.

thanks!

66 lbs is the official word. I used to work in Work Ikea.
