• Desk Thickness:
  • For C-clamp installation: Desk thickness must be between 25mm and 80mm.

This graphic outlines essential checks before installation: monitor size (13-49 inches), weight (2-12kg), VESA compatibility (75x75mm/100x100mm), and desk thickness (C-clamp: 25-80mm, Grommet: 10-90mm).

3. Setup and Installation

The HUANUO Monitor Arm offers two installation methods: C-clamp and Grommet mount. All necessary parts for assembly are included. Please follow the instructions carefully.

3.1. Choosing Your Installation Method

Select the method that best suits your desk. The C-clamp method is suitable for desks without a grommet hole, while the grommet method uses an existing hole in your desk.

3.2. General Installation Steps (Approx. 10 minutes)

1. Attach the Desk Mount: Depending on your chosen method (C-clamp or Grommet), secure the base of the monitor arm to your desk. Ensure it is firmly tightened to prevent movement.
2. Assemble the Arm: Connect the arm sections as instructed in the detailed diagram provided in the packaging.
3. Attach VESA Plate to Monitor: Secure the VESA plate to the back of your monitor using the provided screws. Ensure the screws are compatible with your monitor's VESA holes.
4. Mount Monitor to Arm: Carefully slide or attach the monitor (with the VESA plate) onto the arm's mounting head. Ensure it clicks into place or is securely fastened.
5. Adjust Gas Spring Tension: Adjust the gas spring tension according to your monitor's weight. This ensures the arm holds the monitor in place and allows for smooth adjustments. Use the included Allen key to turn the adjustment screw. Turn clockwise to increase tension for heavier monitors, and counter-clockwise to decrease tension for lighter monitors.

5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your HUANUO Monitor Arm, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Regular Cleaning: Wipe the arm and base with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth and mild detergent, then dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
• Check Connections: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight and secure. Re-tighten if necessary.
• Gas Spring Adjustment: If your monitor feels too loose or too stiff, re-adjust the gas spring tension as described in the installation section.
• Avoid Overloading: Do not place items on the monitor arm or exceed the maximum weight capacity of 12 kg.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your monitor arm, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Monitor Sags or Won't Stay Up: The gas spring tension may be too low for your monitor's weight. Increase the gas spring tension by turning the adjustment screw clockwise with the provided Allen key.
• Monitor is Too Stiff to Move: The gas spring tension may be too high. Decrease the gas spring tension by turning the adjustment screw counter-clockwise.
• Monitor Wobbles: Ensure all mounting screws, especially those connecting the VESA plate to the monitor and the arm to the desk, are securely tightened. Check that the desk mount is stable.
• USB Port Not Functioning: Ensure the USB cable from the monitor arm base is properly connected to a USB port on your computer or a powered USB hub.
