Usage Features

Installation

The installation process is divided into several steps:

STEP 1: Clamp Installation OR Grommet Base Installation
- Option A: Clamp Installation:
  - Mount bracket (C) to the bottom of the gas spring arm (A) using bolts (E).
  - Attach clamp (D) to bracket (C) using bolts (E) and 4mm allen key (K).
  - Mount according to desk thickness.
  - Secure the stand to the desktop by tightening clamp (D) or by using a 6mm allen key (M).
- Option B: Grommet Base Installation:
  - For grommet hole mounting, place carriage bolt (H) through the center of the grommet base (F).
  - Mount grommet base to the bottom of the gas spring arm (A) using bolts (E). Tighten them using a 4mm allen key (K).
  - Run carriage bolt (H) through the grommet hole in the desktop.
  - Attach metal plate (J) and wingnut (G). Tighten the wingnut.
STEP 2: Attach Monitor
- Option A: Flat Back Monitor:
  - Attach VESA plate (B) to the back of the monitor and secure with screws (M-A or M-B) and washers (M-C) using a 6mm Allen Key (M). Avoid over-tightening to prevent damage.
  - CAUTION: Select the correct screws (M-A or M-B) for your monitor. You can screw them in by hand; the one that screws in inside is the correct screw.
- Option B: Curved Back Monitor:
  - Attach VESA plate (B) to the back of the monitor and secure with screws (M-A or M-B), washers (M-C), and spacers (M-D) using a 6mm Allen Key (M). Avoid over-tightening.
STEP 3: Hang Monitor
- Slide the monitor onto the head of the swivel arm.
- Install the security bolt (I) to ensure the monitor is securely attached before rotating.
- WARNING: Keep the front arm at its highest position before taking off the monitor, otherwise, it may spring up and injure your jaw.
- Refer to illustrations to adjust the tilting angle of your monitor. Fasten/loosen the tilting bolt as needed per arrow direction (+/-) shown in the diagram.
STEP 4: Adjust Tension
- This step is crucial for proper functioning, depending on the monitor's weight. Use a 5mm Allen key (L).
- Increase Tension (Clockwise "+"): If the monitor sags or does not stay at the desired height, turn clockwise to increase gas spring tension until the monitor can stay at the desired height.
- Decrease Tension (Counter-clockwise "-"): If the monitor rises up and cannot stay at the desired height, turn counter-clockwise to reduce gas spring tension until the monitor can stay at the desired height.
- Note: Be sure to keep the arm in a horizontal position during adjustment. If it's difficult to adjust, the mount or monitor might be damaged. If necessary, refer to illustrations to adjust the level of tightness of the arms.
STEP 5: Cable Management
- Remove the bottom plastic covers from the gas spring arm (A) as shown.
- Run cables from the monitor through the bottom of the gas spring arm (A).
- Reattach the plastic covers.

Adjust as Desired

The mount offers extensive adjustability:

Tilt: +90° to -45°
Swivel: 360°
Rotation: 360° (for portrait or landscape viewing)
Note: When tilted, if the monitor sags or does not stay, fasten the tilting bolt on the mount until the monitor can be held at any angle. Pay attention while clamp installation.
