2. If the monitor rises up, press the arm to keep it in a horizontal position and then use the Allen Key [T2] to turn the bolt clockwise(“-” direction) to reduce the tension of the arm only until the monitor can stay at the desired height by itself.
3.  If the monitor falls down, lift the arm to keep it in a horizontal position and then use the Allen Key [T2] to turn the bolt counter-clockwise (“+” direction) to increase the tension of the arm only until the monitor can stay at the desired height by itself.

Tilt Adjustment

1. Slightly loosen the pre-assembled bolt [S].
2. Adjust the monitor to your desired tilt angle.
3. re-tighten the bolt [S] to secure the monitor in place.
