5. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps carefully to install your ELIVED EV023-DE monitor wall mount.

5.1. Prepare Your Monitor

1. Carefully place your monitor face down on a soft, clean surface.
2. If your monitor has a stand, remove it according to the monitor's instructions.
3. Identify the VESA mounting holes on the back of your monitor (75x75mm or 100x100mm).
4. Attach the VESA plate to the back of your monitor using the appropriate screws and washers from the hardware kit. Ensure it is securely fastened.

5.2. Choose Mounting Location and Wall Type

Select a location on a solid concrete wall, brick wall, or a wood stud. DO NOT mount on drywall alone. Use a stud finder to locate the center of a wood stud if applicable.

5.3. Mount the Wall Plate

1. Hold the wall plate against the wall at your desired height and mark the drilling holes. Use a level to ensure it is straight.
2. Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. The drill bit size will depend on your wall type and anchors used.
3. Insert wall anchors (if required for concrete/brick) into the pilot holes.
4. Secure the wall plate to the wall using the appropriate screws and washers. Ensure it is firmly attached.

5.4. Attach Monitor Arm to Wall Plate

1. Slide the monitor arm assembly onto the wall plate. Ensure it clicks into place or is secured with any provided locking mechanisms.

5.5. Attach Monitor to Arm

1. Carefully lift your monitor (with the VESA plate attached) and slide it onto the VESA head of the monitor arm.
2. Secure the monitor to the VESA head using the provided locking screw or mechanism.

6. Operating and Adjustment

The ELIVED EV023-DE monitor arm offers a wide range of adjustments for optimal viewing.

6.1. Gas Spring Tension Adjustment

The gas spring tension needs to be adjusted to match your monitor's weight. This ensures the monitor stays at your desired height.

1. If the monitor rises on its own: Turn the adjustment screw (usually marked with "-") clockwise to decrease tension for lighter monitors.
2. If the monitor falls: Turn the adjustment screw (usually marked with "+") counter-clockwise to increase tension for heavier monitors.
3. Adjust gradually until the monitor stays in a horizontal position when released.

6.2. Tilt Adjustment

To adjust the monitor's tilt angle:

1. Loosen the tilt screw (often located on the VESA head) using the provided Allen key.
2. Set the monitor to your desired tilt angle (+70° to -45°).
3. Tighten the tilt screw firmly to secure the position.

6.3. Swivel and Rotation

• Swivel: The arm allows for swivel at the wall plate (180°), the arm joint (270°), and the VESA plate (180°). Simply grasp the monitor or arm and move it to the desired horizontal angle.
• Rotation: The VESA plate allows for 360° rotation, enabling you to switch between landscape and portrait orientations. Gently rotate the monitor to your preferred orientation.

This diagram details the adjustable features of the monitor arm, including 310mm height adjustment, 360-degree rotation, +70°/-45° tilt, and 180°/270° swivel capabilities, along with a maximum extension of 553mm.

7. Cable Management

The ELIVED EV023-DE features an integrated cable management system to keep your workspace tidy and organized.

1. Route your monitor cables (power, video, etc.) along the underside of the arm.
2. Open the cable covers on the arm and place the cables inside.
3. Close the cable covers to conceal and protect the cables.

8. Maintenance

• Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight and secure.
• Clean the mount with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Do not attempt to disassemble the gas spring mechanism.

9. Troubleshooting

9.1. Monitor does not stay at desired height (falls or rises)

This indicates the gas spring tension is not correctly adjusted for your monitor's weight.

• Solution: Refer to Section 6.1 "Gas Spring Tension Adjustment" and adjust the tension using the provided Allen key until the monitor remains stable at any height.

9.2. Monitor tilt is loose or won't hold position

The tilt mechanism screw may be loose.

• Solution: Refer to Section 6.2 "Tilt Adjustment" and tighten the tilt screw firmly with the Allen key.

9.3. Mount feels unstable after installation

This could indicate improper wall mounting or loose connections.

• Solution: Re-check all wall plate screws and monitor arm connections. Ensure the wall type is appropriate (not drywall alone) and that anchors (if used) are secure. If unsure, consult a professional installer.
