Safety Information

• Weight Capacity: Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity of 19.8 lbs (9 kg) per monitor. Exceeding this limit may result in instability and potential injury.
• Monitor Size: This mount supports monitors from 13 to 32 inches. Ensure your monitors fit within this range.
• VESA Compatibility: Compatible with VESA patterns 75x75mm and 100x100mm. Verify your monitor's VESA pattern before installation.
• Desk Thickness: For C-clamp installation, the desk thickness must be between 0.39 inches (10mm) and 3.3 inches (85mm). For grommet installation, the desk thickness must be between 0.39 inches (10mm) and 1.6 inches (40mm).
• Installation Surface: Ensure the mounting surface (desk) is structurally sound and can support the combined weight of the mount and monitors. Do not install on drywall-only surfaces.

• C-Clamp: Ideal for desks without a grommet hole. Attaches to the edge of the desk.
• Grommet: Utilizes an existing hole in your desk for a more flush installation.

Step 2: Attach Mount to Desk

Secure the main pole to your desk using the chosen method. Ensure it is tightened firmly to prevent movement.

Step 3: Attach VESA Plates to Monitors

Attach the VESA plates to the back of your monitors using the appropriate screws from the hardware kit. Ensure the screws are not overtightened to avoid damaging the monitor.

Step 4: Mount Monitors to Arms

Slide the monitors (with VESA plates attached) onto the monitor arms. Secure them with the provided locking mechanism.

Operating Instructions and Adjustments

The Mount-It! MI-2752 offers extensive adjustability for optimal viewing comfort.

Height Adjustment

Monitors can be adjusted vertically along the main pole. Fine-tune individual monitor heights for perfect alignment using the adjustment screws on the VESA plate attachment points.

Tilt, Swivel, and Rotation

Each monitor can be independently tilted, swiveled, and rotated to achieve your desired viewing angle.

• Tilt: Adjust the screen angle +90°/-45° to reduce glare and optimize viewing.
• Swivel: Pivot the monitor 180° horizontally.
• Rotation: Rotate the monitor 360° for landscape or portrait orientation.

Tension Adjustment

If a monitor sags or does not hold its position, adjust the tension of the gas spring arms. Use the provided Allen wrench to turn the hex bolt at the top of the arm. Turn clockwise to increase tension for heavier monitors, and counter-clockwise to decrease tension for lighter monitors.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the mount with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Periodic Checks: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight and secure. Re-tighten if necessary.
• Lubrication: No lubrication is required for the moving parts.

Troubleshooting

Monitor Sags or Does Not Hold Position

• Solution: Adjust the gas spring tension. Turn the hex bolt on the arm clockwise to increase tension until the monitor holds its position.

Mount is Unstable or Wobbles

• Solution: Ensure the desk clamp or grommet base is securely tightened to the desk. Check that all connections on the pole and arms are firm.

Monitors Are Not Level

• Solution: Use the fine-tuning height adjustment screws on the VESA plate attachment points to align the monitors.
