Preparing the cantilever-base monitor for wall-mounting

1.Disconnect the power cable and any other cables from the monitor.

2.Remove the monitor base. Keep the monitor panel screen down on a flat, soft area.

3.After the base is removed, remove the rubber plug on the neck of the monitor. You will see a screw below the rubber plug and two additional screws on the panel.

5.Remove the neck from the monitor.

6.Save the removed items (rubber plug, screws, neck, and base) for future use.

7.Follow the instructions included with the mounting fixture to ensure that the monitor is safely attached.

Wall-mounting the double-hinged monitor

Before you mount the monitor on a wall, a swing arm, or other mounting fixture, you must remove the monitor base and the pedestal. Note that the mounting fixture is not supplied. You will need a Phillips screwdriver. Read the following warning and caution statements before beginning the procedure.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of personal injury or of damage to the equipment, check that the wall-mounting fixture is adequately installed and secured before attaching the monitor. Refer to the instructions supplied with the wall-mounting fixture and check that it is capable of supporting the monitor.
