This document is an installation manual for the WALI Single Monitor Desk Mount, model GSM001XL.

Function Description:

The WALI Single Monitor Desk Mount is designed to securely hold a single computer monitor on a desk, providing adjustable positioning for optimal viewing. It offers two primary installation methods: C-Clamp and Grommet Base, catering to different desk types and user preferences. The mount features a gas spring mechanism for easy and smooth adjustment of monitor height, tilt, swivel, and rotation, enhancing ergonomic comfort and workspace efficiency.

Important Technical Specifications:

Model: GSM001XL
VESA Mounting Compatibility: 75x75mm and 100x100mm
Maximum Monitor Size: 35 inches
Weight Capacity: 1-15 kg (2.2-33 lbs)
Desk Thickness Compatibility (C-Clamp): 0.4"-3.3"
Desk Thickness Compatibility (Grommet): 0.4"-1.9"
Swivel Range: Up to +/-180° (with optional restriction to +/-90°)
Tilt Range: Adjustable
Rotation: 360° (implied by the ability to rotate for best viewing angle)
Materials: Includes metal components for the base, arms, and VESA plate, along with plastic covers and anti-skid pads.

Usage Features:

Installation Flexibility:
- C-Clamp Installation (Option A): Attaches to the edge of a desk. The C-Clamp Brace (I) connects to the Base (A) using bolts (K) and an Allen Key (M). An Anti-Skid Pad (G) is applied to the base for stability. The clamp bolts are loosened to adjust to desk thickness, then tightened with an Allen Key (N) after positioning the base on the desktop. A Decor Cover (H) is attached to the back of the C-Clamp Brace for a clean look.
- Grommet Base Installation (Option B): Utilizes an existing desk hole. The Bottom Grommet Plate (F) connects to the Base (A) with bolts (K) and an Allen Key (M). An Anti-Skid Pad (G) is applied. The clamp bolt is removed from the C-Clamp (J), and the Base (A) is placed over the desk hole. The Support Plate (E) is guided through the bolt, and the bolt is tightened to the base with an Allen Key (N) for stability.
Monitor Attachment: The VESA Plate (D) is attached to the back of the TV/Monitor using either M4x12 bolts (M-A) or M5x12 bolts (M-B) and D5 Washers (M-C), depending on the monitor's threading. Users are instructed to hand-thread screws first to determine the correct size.
Arm Assembly:
- Arm (B) connects to the Base (A), and its lower screw is tightened with Allen Key 3mm (L). Optionally, the upper screw can be tightened to restrict swivel movement to +/-90° instead of +/-180°.
- Arm (C) connects to Arm (B) and is tightened with Allen Key 3mm (L).
Monitor Mounting: After assembling the VESA plate to the monitor, the assembled TV/Monitor is placed onto the Arm (C) by pulling a buckle, ensuring stability.
Adjustability:
- Gas Spring Tension Adjustment (Step 7): The gas spring tension can be adjusted using Allen Key 6mm (N) to suit the monitor's weight. Turning clockwise (-) reduces tension for lighter screens, while turning counter-clockwise (+) increases tension for heavier screens. This adjustment is performed with the arm held at a horizontal level.
- Tilt Adjustment (Step 8): The tilt tension can be adjusted using Allen Key 6mm (N).
- Swivel, Tilt, and Rotation (Step 12): The monitor can be manually swiveled (up to +/-180°), tilted (+/-45°), and rotated (360° implied by the diagram) for the best viewing angle.
Cable Management (Steps 9 & 10): The mount includes cable cases on the arms. Users can screw out bolts to remove the cable cases, guide cables through, and then replace the cases and bolts for a tidy setup.
Safety Warning (Step 11): Users are advised not to extend the monitor behind the desk, as this can cause instability and tip the desk over.

Maintenance Features:

Allen Key Storage: The Allen Keys (L, M, N) can be stored in the holder of the Decor Cover (H) for future convenience, ensuring they are readily available for adjustments.
Regular Checks: While not explicitly stated as "maintenance," the need for Allen Keys for adjustments implies that users might periodically need to re-tighten or adjust the mount as needed, especially after changing monitors or desired positions.

Safety Information:

The manual includes a "WARNING!" section emphasizing the importance of understanding directions, checking for missing/defective parts, and not exceeding weight capacity. It also features a "TIPOVER WARNING" highlighting the risk of serious crushing injuries if children climb, stand, hang, or play on the monitor or stand. It strongly recommends using tipover restraints or anchoring the stand to the wall. Small parts are noted as a choking hazard for children under 3 years, requiring adult supervision.
