Setup and Assembly Instructions
Follow these steps to assemble your triple monitor stand. It is recommended to have a second person assist during monitor attachment.
- Assemble the Base: Attach the main pole to the freestanding base using the provided screws. Ensure it is securely tightened.
- Attach Monitor Arms: Slide the monitor arms onto the main pole. Do not fully tighten them yet, allowing for height adjustment later.
- Prepare Monitors: Attach the VESA mounting plates to the back of each monitor using the appropriate screws. Ensure the screws are snug but do not overtighten.
- Mount Monitors:
- Carefully slide the center monitor onto its arm's VESA plate. Secure it with the locking mechanism.
- With assistance, mount the left and right monitors. It is crucial to support the stand's base to prevent tipping when attaching side monitors.
- Adjust Height and Alignment: Adjust the height of the entire arm assembly on the main pole to your desired viewing level. Then, fine-tune the individual monitor arms for perfect alignment.
- Cable Management: Route all monitor cables through the integrated cable management clips on the arms and pole for a clean setup.

Operating Instructions (Adjustments)
Your Mount-It! Triple Monitor Stand offers extensive adjustability for optimal viewing comfort.
- Height Adjustment: Loosen the collar on the main pole to slide the entire arm assembly up or down. Retighten securely once the desired height is reached.
- Tilt Adjustment: Each monitor can be tilted independently. Loosen the tilt knob behind the VESA plate, adjust the monitor to your preferred angle (up to 45° down / 80° up), and retighten.
- Swivel Adjustment: The monitor arms can swivel 360° at three different points, allowing you to position your screens precisely.
- Rotation: Monitors can be rotated 360° from landscape to portrait orientation without removing them.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your monitor stand, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Regular Checks: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Retighten as necessary.
- Cleaning: Wipe the stand with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
- Lubrication: No lubrication is required for the moving parts.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Mount-It! Triple Monitor Stand, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- Problem: Monitors are wobbly or unstable.
- Solution: Ensure all screws, especially those connecting the arms to the pole and the VESA plates to the monitors, are securely tightened. Verify that the freestanding base is on a flat, stable surface. Uneven weight distribution can also cause wobbling; try to balance the monitors as evenly as possible.
- Problem: Monitors are not aligning perfectly.
- Solution: Use the independent adjustment features of each arm to fine-tune the height, tilt, and swivel of individual monitors. Some minor variations may occur due to monitor bezel thickness or manufacturing tolerances. Adjust the height adjustment screw on the VESA plate for the center monitor before adding side monitors for easier alignment.
- Problem: Stand tips over when monitors are attached.
- Solution: This typically indicates improper weight distribution or exceeding the weight capacity. Always attach the center monitor first, then the side monitors, ensuring the stand's base is firmly supported during the process. Confirm that each monitor's weight does not exceed 15.4 lbs and the total weight does not exceed 66 lbs. Ensure the arms are positioned to keep the center of gravity over the base.
