Setup and Installation

The WALI Ultrawide Monitor Arm offers two installation options: C-clamp and Grommet Base. Choose the method that best suits your desk setup.

Step 1: Mount the Base

C-Clamp Installation: Secure the C-clamp to the edge of your desk by tightening the screw until it is firm. Ensure the clamp is stable and does not wobble.

Grommet Base Installation: If your desk has a grommet hole (10-60mm diameter), insert the grommet base through the hole and secure it from underneath the desk using the provided hardware. If no hole exists, you may need to drill one (consult a professional if unsure).

Step 2: Install VESA Plate to Monitor

Attach the quick-release VESA plate to the back of your monitor using the appropriate screws from the hardware kit. The monitor arm supports VESA patterns of 75x75mm and 100x100mm. Ensure the plate is securely fastened to your monitor's VESA mounting holes.

Step 3: Quick Connect Monitor to Arm

Slide the monitor (with the attached VESA plate) onto the arm's mounting head until it clicks securely into place. Ensure the monitor is firmly attached before releasing it.

Operating Instructions

The WALI monitor arm provides extensive adjustability for optimal viewing comfort.

Angle Adjustment (Tilt, Swivel, Rotation)

• Tilt: Adjust the monitor tilt from +50° to -20° to find your preferred vertical viewing angle.
• Swivel: Swivel the monitor ±90° horizontally to share your screen or adjust for different viewing positions.

Gas Spring Tension Adjustment

The gas spring mechanism allows for smooth and effortless height adjustment. You may need to adjust the tension based on your monitor's weight.

• To increase tension (for heavier monitors), turn the adjustment screw clockwise.
• To decrease tension (for lighter monitors), turn the adjustment screw counter-clockwise.
• Always keep the arm in a horizontal level position when adjusting tension.
• The arm supports a height range of approximately 9.09 inches to 19.68 inches (23.1cm to 50cm).
