6. Operating the Monitor Stand

The Jakeko monitor stand offers various adjustments to optimize your viewing experience and promote ergonomic posture.

6.1. Adjusting Tilt

To adjust the tilt angle of your monitor, gently grasp the top and bottom edges of your monitor and tilt it forward or backward. The stand supports a tilt range from -15° (downward) to +75° (upward). Adjust to find your most comfortable viewing angle, reducing neck strain.

6.2. Adjusting Rotation (Portrait/Landscape)

The stand allows for smooth rotation of your monitor. To switch between landscape and portrait orientations, carefully rotate the monitor clockwise or counter-clockwise. This feature is useful for different tasks, such as coding or document review.

6.3. Ergonomic Posture

Proper adjustment of your monitor height and angle can significantly improve your posture and reduce discomfort. Position your monitor so that the top of the screen is at or slightly below eye level, and your eyes are approximately an arm's length away from the screen. Use the tilt and rotation features to achieve an optimal viewing angle that minimizes glare and neck strain.

7. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Jakeko monitor stand, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe the stand with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish.
• Inspections: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary.
• Movement: If the stand's joints become stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the pivot points.

8. Troubleshooting

8.1. Monitor is unstable or wobbles

• Ensure the stand is placed on a flat, stable surface.
• Verify that all VESA mounting screws are securely tightened to the monitor and the stand.

8.2. Difficulty adjusting tilt or rotation

• The joints are designed to be firm to hold the monitor's position. Apply steady, gentle force when adjusting.
