Setup and Installation
Follow these steps to install your GRIFEMA GB2001A-2 monitor mount.
Step 1: Choose Your Mounting Option
The mount supports two installation methods: C-Clamp or Grommet Mount. Select the option best suited for your desk.

C-Clamp Installation:
- Attach the C-clamp base to the bottom of the main pole.
- Position the C-clamp on the edge of your desk. Ensure the desk thickness is between 10mm and 80mm.
- Tighten the C-clamp screw firmly until the mount is stable and secure.
Grommet Mount Installation:
- If your desk has a grommet hole, insert the main pole through it.
- Secure the grommet plate and nut from underneath the desk, tightening until stable.
Step 2: Attach Monitor Arms to the Pole
Slide the monitor arm assemblies onto the main pole. Adjust their height to your preference and secure them using the provided screws or clamps.
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 your monitor has VESA 75x75mm or 100x100mm mounting holes.

Step 4: Mount Monitors to Arms
Carefully slide the monitors (with VESA plates attached) onto the monitor arms. Secure them with the locking mechanism or screws as indicated in the detailed instructions provided with the hardware kit.
Step 5: Cable Management
Utilize the integrated cable management clips along the arms and pole to route your monitor cables neatly. This helps maintain a clutter-free workspace.

Operating and Adjustments
The GRIFEMA GB2001A-2 mount offers extensive adjustability for optimal viewing comfort.
- Height Adjustment: Loosen the clamp on the main pole to slide the arms up or down. Re-tighten to secure at the desired height.
- Tilt Adjustment: The monitor can be tilted +90° to -90° to reduce glare and find the perfect viewing angle. Adjust the tilt mechanism on the VESA plate.
- Swivel Adjustment: Swivel the monitor arms up to 180° left or right from the pole, and the VESA plate can swivel +/-90° for flexible screen positioning.
- Rotation: Rotate your monitor 360° to switch between landscape and portrait orientations without removing the monitor.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and safe operation of your monitor mount, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe the mount with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
- Check Connections: Periodically (e.g., every 3-6 months) inspect all screws and bolts to ensure they are tight and secure. Re-tighten if necessary.
- Weight Limits: Do not place monitors exceeding the specified weight capacity on the arms.
- Avoid Over-tightening: While ensuring security, avoid over-tightening screws, which can strip threads or damage components.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your monitor mount, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- Monitor sags or tilts downwards:
Solution: The tilt mechanism might not be tight enough. Use the provided Allen key to tighten the bolt on the VESA plate that controls the tilt. Ensure it is tightened firmly. - Mount feels unstable on the desk:
Solution: Re-check the C-clamp or grommet mount. Ensure it is fully tightened to the desk. Verify that your desk surface is flat and sturdy enough to support the mount and monitors. - Monitors are not level:
Solution: The VESA plates often have a small amount of rotational adjustment. Loosen the VESA plate screws slightly, adjust the monitor to be level, and then re-tighten. Some VESA plates also offer +/-18mm height adjustment for fine-tuning. - Difficulty adjusting height:
Solution: Ensure the height adjustment clamp on the main pole is sufficiently loosened before attempting to move the arms. If it's still stiff, check for any obstructions.
