There must be something to do with ergonomics.

These keyboards divide the letter keys into two halves, and angle each half slightly ... if users are taught to angle the keyboard tray slightly downwards. ...

agree  yam2u: good one, erich! i've only heard my late grandparents used this word to mean 'talam/dulang'. Don't know in Indonesia, but in Malaysia, word is probably archaic. :)

  -> Thanks yam2. "talam" is still used in many Indonesian restos. The verb of "dulang" (=mendulang) is also widely used, but I barely heard "dulang" as a noun.

KAKI
leg


Explanation:
CMIIW but like Pak Hendarto, I'm inclined to believe that it is a typo, and it should be "kaki" keyboard. Hence, "Arrange the [correct] angle of the Keyboard leg."
Baki itself has severlal meanings viz. eternal, balance (saldo), infertile, and tray. The meaning "tray" does not seem to fit in this context.
