Setup and Installation
The MOUNT PRO Single Monitor Desk Mount offers two installation methods: C-Clamp and Grommet mounting. A detailed installation manual in PDF format is available for download: Installation Manual (PDF).
Installation Options:
- C-Clamp Mounting: Ideal for desks with thicknesses from 0.39" to 4.52". This method clamps the mount securely to the edge of your desk.
- Grommet Mounting: Suitable for desks with existing grommet holes (0.39"-2.36" diameter) and thicknesses from 0.39" to 3.15". This provides a flush, integrated look.

While installation is designed to be straightforward with labeled parts and clear instructions, it is recommended that two people assist with the initial setup, especially when attaching the monitor to the arm and securing the base, to ensure stability and prevent accidental damage.
Operating and Adjustments
The MOUNT PRO monitor arm provides full motion adjustment to achieve your optimal ergonomic position. Key adjustment points include:
- Gas Spring Adjustment: This controls the vertical movement of the arm. If your monitor raises up, turn the adjustment screw clockwise (towards '-') to reduce tension for a lighter monitor. If your monitor falls down, turn counter-clockwise (towards '+') to increase tension for a heavier monitor. Always keep the arm in a horizontal position during adjustment.
- Tilt Adjustment: Loosen the tilting bolt (turn towards '-') to adjust your monitor to the desired tilt angle (-45° to +90°). Retighten the bolt (turn towards '+') to secure the angle.
- Swivel Adjustment: The arm allows for ±90° swivel at the monitor plate and ±180° swivel at the arm joints, providing flexible side-to-side movement.
- Rotation: The monitor can be rotated 360° for landscape or portrait orientation.

Cable Management
The monitor arm features integrated cable management channels to keep your workspace tidy. Plastic covers along the arm can be removed to route and conceal your cables, leading them down to the desk grommet or along the desk edge for a clean setup.
Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your MOUNT PRO monitor arm, regular maintenance is recommended:
- Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they are tight and secure.
- Wipe down the arm and base with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- If the arm's movement becomes stiff or too loose, re-adjust the gas spring tension as described in the Operating and Adjustments section.
Troubleshooting
- Monitor Tilts Down / Does Not Hold Position: This typically indicates insufficient gas spring tension for the monitor's weight. Increase the tension by turning the adjustment screw counter-clockwise (towards '+'). Ensure the monitor's weight is within the 4.4-17.6 lbs range.
- Monitor Stays Too High / Does Not Lower: This suggests too much gas spring tension for a lighter monitor. Decrease the tension by turning the adjustment screw clockwise (towards '-'). For very light monitors (e.g., 2.65 lbs), the arm might remain in the highest position even at the loosest setting. In such cases, adding a small amount of weight to the monitor or arm might be necessary to achieve desired lower positions.
- Arm Feels Loose / Wobbly: Check all connection points, especially the desk clamp/grommet base and the VESA plate screws, to ensure they are securely tightened.
