3. Setup and Installation
3.1 Attaching the VESA Plate to Your Monitor
The VESA plate supports 75 x 75mm and 100 x 100mm hole patterns. Select the appropriate M4 screws (10mm, 12mm, or 14mm) based on your monitor's thread depth. Use the provided L-shaped hex key to securely fasten the VESA plate to the back of your monitor or TV screen. Ensure all screws are tightened to prevent movement.
3.2 Mounting the Adapter to a Stand
The adapter features a universal 5/8" receiver. This allows it to be mounted onto any C-stand, desktop monitor stand, or heavy-duty light stand equipped with a 5/8" stud. Slide the adapter onto the stud and secure it using the integrated locking mechanism on the stand (stand not included).
3.3 Using the Arca Type Quick Release
The Arca Type quick release clamp allows for rapid attachment and detachment of your monitor. To attach, align the VESA plate (with monitor) to the quick release clamp and slide it in until it locks securely. To release, press the quick release lever and slide the monitor off. Always ensure the clamp is fully engaged before leaving the monitor unattended.
4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Adjusting the Ball Head
The integrated 360° rotatable metal ball head provides extensive flexibility for monitor positioning. Loosen the long lever handle to adjust the monitor's angle. You can rotate it 360° for vertical or horizontal viewing and tilt it up to 90° for optimal viewing angles. Once the desired position is achieved, tighten the lever handle firmly to lock the ball head in place.
5. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the mount with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Inspection: Regularly check all screws and locking mechanisms for tightness. Ensure the quick release functions smoothly.
- Lubrication: No special lubrication is required for the ball head or quick release mechanism under normal use.
- Storage: Store the mount in a dry, cool place when not in use.
6. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
