4. Installation Guide

Follow these steps to install the ErGear VESA Mount Adapter onto your non-VESA monitor.

4.1 Prepare the Adapter Arms

1. Assemble the Adapter Arms: Attach the four adapter arms to the central VESA plate using the provided screws and nuts. Ensure they are securely fastened but allow for slight adjustment initially.

   

2. Adjust for Monitor Thickness: Select the appropriate non-slip pads and spacers based on your monitor's thickness (1.18" to 2.95"). Insert the clamp screws through the adapter arms and secure them with the chosen pads/spacers.

   

3. Adjust for Monitor Size: Position the adapter arms to fit the diagonal length and height of your 17-27 inch monitor. The arms have multiple holes for adjustment.

   

4.2 Attach to Monitor

4. Secure the Monitor: Carefully place your monitor into the assembled adapter arms. Ensure the non-slip pads are correctly positioned to protect your monitor's surface. Tighten the clamp screws evenly until the monitor is held firmly in place. Do not overtighten.
5. Connect to VESA Mount: Once the monitor is securely attached to the adapter, align the central VESA plate (75x75 mm) with your VESA-compatible monitor arm or stand. Use the appropriate VESA screws provided with your monitor arm/stand to attach the adapter.

   

5. Operating Instructions

Once the ErGear VESA Mount Adapter is securely installed on your monitor and attached to a VESA-compatible arm or stand, the operation of your display will primarily depend on the features of your chosen monitor arm/stand. The adapter itself provides a stable and secure connection, allowing your non-VESA monitor to function as a VESA-compatible display.

• Adjusting Position: Use the adjustment mechanisms of your monitor arm or stand to position your display as desired (height, tilt, swivel, rotation).
• Stability Check: Periodically check that all screws and clamps on the adapter remain tight to ensure the monitor's stability.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the adapter with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
• Periodic Inspection: Regularly inspect all connections and fasteners to ensure they are secure. Retighten any loose screws as needed.
• Non-Slip Pads: Check the non-slip pads for wear and tear. Replace if necessary to maintain monitor security.

7. Troubleshooting

7.1 Monitor is not secure or slips

• Check Clamp Tightness: Ensure all clamp screws holding the monitor are tightened evenly and firmly.
• Verify Monitor Thickness: Confirm your monitor's thickness is within the specified range (1.18" to 2.95"). If it's too thin or too thick, the adapter may not provide a secure grip.
• Non-Slip Pads: Ensure the non-slip pads are correctly installed and not worn out.

7.2 Adapter does not fit my monitor arm/stand

• VESA Compatibility: This adapter is designed for VESA 75x75 mm mounts. Verify that your monitor arm/stand supports this VESA pattern.
• Screw Length: Ensure you are using the correct screws provided with your monitor arm/stand to attach the adapter to the mount.

7.3 Monitor appears crooked after installation

• Even Tightening: Loosen the monitor clamp screws slightly, adjust the monitor to be level, and then retighten all screws evenly.
• Arm Adjustment: Use the leveling adjustments on your monitor arm/stand if available.
