Setup and Installation
This monitor stand offers two installation methods: C-clamp and grommet mount. Choose the method that best suits your desk.
1. Assemble the Base
Attach the base plate to the main pole using the provided bolt and hex wrench. Ensure it is securely tightened.
2. Choose Your Mounting Option
C-Clamp Installation
For desks with a thickness between 0.4" and 3.3". Attach the C-clamp bracket to the pole base. Depending on your desk thickness, you may need to adjust the orientation of the clamp handle. Place the assembled stand onto the edge of your desk. Tighten the hand knob until the clamp is firmly secured against the underside of the table.

Grommet Mount Installation
For desks with an existing grommet hole or if you plan to drill one (0.4" - 1.6" thickness). Remove the C-clamp components. Insert the grommet bolt through the desk hole from the top. From the underside of the desk, attach the grommet handle and tighten it until the stand is secure.
3. Attach the Monitor Arm to the Pole
Slide the monitor arm assembly over the top of the pole. Position it at your desired height and tighten the bolt on the rear of the arm using the hex wrench until it is secure.
4. Attach the VESA Plate to Your Monitor
Select the appropriate size mounting bolts and washers from the hardware kit that fit your monitor's VESA mounting holes (75x75mm or 100x100mm). Attach the VESA plate securely to the back of your monitor.
5. Mount the Monitor
Carefully slide the VESA plate with your monitor onto the monitor arm. Ensure it is fully seated. Install the safety bolt at the top of the VESA bracket to prevent accidental dislodgement.

Operating and Adjustments
The Mount-It! Single Monitor Stand allows for various adjustments to achieve optimal viewing angles and ergonomic positioning.
Height Adjustment
To adjust the monitor height, loosen the bolt on the rear of the monitor arm, slide the arm up or down the 16-inch pole to your desired eye level, and then re-tighten the bolt securely.

Tilt, Swivel, and Rotation
The monitor arm supports 160° swivel, ±40° tilt, and 360° rotation. To adjust the tilt, loosen the bolt on the side of the VESA plate, position your screen to the desired angle, and then re-tighten the bolt. The monitor can be swiveled left or right by gently turning the screen. For 360° rotation, simply rotate the monitor to switch between landscape and portrait orientations.

Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the stand with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.

Troubleshooting
- Monitor is wobbly: Ensure all mounting bolts, especially the clamp/grommet and monitor arm bolts, are securely tightened. Verify your desk surface is stable.
- Monitor does not hold position (tilts/swivels too easily): Tighten the adjustment bolts on the monitor arm and VESA plate. Refer to the "Operating and Adjustments" section.
- Cannot attach VESA plate to monitor: Check your monitor's VESA pattern (75x75mm or 100x100mm) and ensure you are using the correct size screws and washers from the hardware kit. Some monitors may require spacers (not included if not standard).
- Stand does not fit desk: Confirm your desk thickness is within the specified range for the C-clamp (0.4" - 3.3") or grommet mount (0.4" - 1.6").
