• C-Clamp: Ideal for desks without a pre-drilled hole. Clamps directly to the edge of the desk.
• Grommet Base: Requires a hole in the desk (diameter > 40mm / 1.57"). Provides a more flush and permanent installation.

4.2 Attaching the Base to Your Desk

Follow the instructions provided in the hardware kit for your chosen mounting method. Ensure the base is securely fastened to a stable desk surface with a thickness between 0.39" and 3.85" (1cm and 9.8cm).

4.3 Assembling the Arm and Pole

1. Slide the swivel arm onto the main pole.
2. Adjust the arm to your desired initial height and secure it with the provided collar and screw.

4.4 Attaching Your Monitor or Laptop

This mount supports both VESA-compatible monitors and laptops using the included tray.

• For Monitors: Attach the VESA plate to the back of your monitor using the appropriate screws from the hardware kit. The mount supports VESA patterns of 75x75mm and 100x100mm. Then, slide the monitor with the attached VESA plate onto the arm.
• For Laptops: Secure the laptop tray to the arm. Place your laptop on the tray, ensuring it is centered and stable. The tray features ventilation slots and secure lips to prevent the laptop from sliding.
