Attach a Monitor

Warning! Attaching a monitor is a two-person job. Do not attempt to complete this task by yourself.

To accommodate different monitor designs, the Arm Mount comes with two sets of screws that are different lengths and diameters, and a set of spacers.

To select the appropriate screws for the type of monitor that you're using, complete the following:

• Determine whether the back of the monitor is flush or inset.
  • Determine the depth of the mounting holes on the monitor.

• Determine the diameter of the mounting holes on the monitor.

• Do one of the following:

- If required, place the Spacers (18) over the mounting holes on the back of your monitor, and position the VESA Monitor Mount (2) over the spacers. Make sure that you position the VESA Monitor Mount so that the arrow on the back of the VESA Monitor Mount is pointed towards the top of the monitor.

- Position the VESA Monitor Mount (2) over the mounting holes on the back of your monitor. Make sure that you position the VESA Monitor Mount so that the arrow on the back of the VESA Monitor Mount is pointed towards the top of the monitor.

1. Position the four Washers (17) over the holes on the VESA Monitor Mount.
