3. Operating Your Monitor Mount

3.1. Adjusting Monitor Position

The full-motion design allows for various adjustments:

• Height Adjustment: Gently raise or lower the monitor arms to your desired height. The internal gas spring assists with this movement.
• Tilt: Tilt your monitor screen up or down (-85 to 15 degrees) to reduce glare and optimize viewing angles.
• Swivel: Swivel the monitor left or right to share your screen or adjust your viewing position.
• Rotation: Rotate the monitor 360 degrees to switch between landscape and portrait orientations.

3.2. Gas Spring Tension Adjustment

If your monitor sags or does not stay in the desired height, the gas spring tension may need adjustment. Use the provided Allen key to turn the adjustment screw located on the arm joints. Turn clockwise to increase tension for heavier monitors, or counter-clockwise to decrease tension for lighter monitors. Adjust gradually until the monitor holds its position stably.

4. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the mount surfaces with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Periodic Checks: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight and secure. Re-tighten if necessary.

5. Troubleshooting

• Monitor Sags or Does Not Hold Position: Adjust the gas spring tension using the provided Allen key. Refer to Section 3.2 for detailed instructions.
• Mount Feels Unstable: Ensure the desk clamp is fully tightened to the desk. Check that the main pole is securely fastened to the clamp base.
• Mount Does Not Fit Thick Desk: If your desk is thicker than standard, you may need to reverse the mounting screw on the clamp to maximize its length. Consult the product's online resources or contact support for specific guidance.
