Operating Instructions

The WALI GSM001XLN monitor arm offers a wide range of adjustments for optimal viewing comfort.

1. Adjusting Monitor Position

• Height Adjustment: Gently push or pull the monitor up or down to your desired height. The gas spring mechanism will hold it in place.
• Tilt: The monitor can tilt ±75° (up/down). Loosen the tilting bolt on the VESA plate, adjust the angle, and then retighten the bolt.
• Swivel: Swivel the monitor ±90° (left/right) for collaborative viewing or to change orientation.
• Rotation: Rotate the monitor 360° to switch between landscape and portrait modes.

2. Adjusting for Large-Screen Monitors

For monitors over 30 inches, it is crucial to adjust the tilting bolt for stability. Loosen the tilting bolt, tilt the monitor to your desired angle, and then firmly retighten the tilting bolt.

3. Gas Spring Tension Adjustment

The gas spring tension needs to be adjusted according to your monitor's weight to ensure it holds its position without sagging or floating. Use the provided Allen wrench:

• Turn clockwise (towards '-') for lighter monitors.
• Turn counter-clockwise (towards '+') for heavier monitors.

You may need to turn it several times to find the optimal tension.

Cable Management

To maintain a clean and organized workspace, utilize the integrated cable management system. Route your monitor cables through the designated clips or channels along the arm. This helps to reduce clutter and keeps your desk tidy.

Troubleshooting

• Monitor Sags/Doesn't Hold Position: Adjust the gas spring tension. Turn the adjustment screw counter-clockwise (towards '+') to increase tension for heavier monitors.
• Monitor is Too Stiff to Move: Adjust the gas spring tension. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise (towards '-') to decrease tension for lighter monitors.
• Monitor Tilts Downward: For large or heavy monitors, ensure the tilting bolt on the VESA plate is securely tightened after adjusting the desired tilt angle.
• Arm is Loose on Desk: Re-tighten the C-clamp or grommet base screw to ensure a secure attachment to the desk.
