Using Your Gateway Flat Panel Monitor

Adjusting monitor height tension

The stand is factory adjusted to maintain the adjusted height for your monitor. However, you can further adjust the tension.

To test and adjust your monitor’s height tension:

1 Move your monitor up and down through its entire vertical range. If it does not stay in place when you let go, you need to change the adjustable stand’s height tension. You also need to adjust the stand if the amounts of force required to raise and lower the monitor are not equal.

2 Adjust the height tension screw so the monitor stays in place when you let go. If the monitor lowers by itself when you let go, turn the screw clockwise several complete turns. If the monitor rises when you let go, turn the screw counter-clockwise several complete turns. You may need to turn the screw several times before the tension is correct for your monitor.

Increase lifting tension (clockwise)

Decrease lifting tension (counter-clockwise)

3 Adjust the height tension screw so raising and lowering forces are equal. After the forces are equalized, turn the tension screw clockwise 2 to 4 turns to slightly decrease the lifting tension.

4 For optimum viewing, adjust the height so the top of monitor is about 1 inch below eye level.
