5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Elgato Wall Mount, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Regular Cleaning: Wipe down the mount with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
• Check Connections: Periodically inspect all screws and knobs to ensure they are tight and secure. Loose connections can lead to instability.
• Lubrication: The ball joints are designed for smooth movement. If you notice any stiffness, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied, but avoid over-lubricating.
• Weight Limits: Always adhere to the maximum load capacity of 1.5 kg / 3.5 lbs (when angled horizontally) to prevent damage to the mount or your equipment.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Elgato Wall Mount, consider the following:

• Mount is Unstable: Ensure all mounting screws securing the wall plate are tight. Verify that the wall material is appropriate and that the screws used are suitable for the wall type. Check that the ball joint knobs are fully tightened after adjusting the device.
• Device is Slipping: Confirm that your device is securely screwed onto the 1/4-inch thread. Ensure the ball joint knobs are tightened sufficiently to hold the device's weight and position.
• Difficulty Adjusting: Loosen the ball joint knobs slightly before attempting to reposition your device. Do not force adjustments if the knobs are tight.
