Attach monitors to the monitor arms on the lower pole
Warning! Attaching the monitors is a two-person job. Do not attempt to complete this
task by yourself.
To accommodate dierent monitor designs, the ARMQUAD comes with two sets of
screws that are dierent lengths and diameters.
To select the appropriate screws for the type of monitors that you’re using, complete
the following:
• Determine whether the back of the monitors are ush or inset.
• Determine the depth of the mounting holes on the monitors.
• Determine the diameter of the mounting holes on the monitors.
1. Position one of the VESA monitor mounts (2) over the mounting holes on the back
of one of your monitors.
Note: Make sure that you position the VESA monitor mount so that the adjustment
screw on the monitor mount is facing towards the top of the monitor.
2. Position four of the washers (14) over the holes on the VESA monitor mount.
3. Insert four of the M4x14 mm screws (12) or the M5x14 mm screws (13) through the
washers, the VESA monitor mount, and into the monitor. (gure 17)
4. Use a Phillips screwdriver to tighten the screws.
Warning! Do not over-tighten the screws. If you encounter resistance while you’re
tightening the screws, stop tightening. Failure to do so could result in damage to the
monitor.
