Choose Desk Stand or Shelf Clamp

HoverBar includes both a freestanding, weighted Desk Stand and a Shelf Clamp. The Desk Stand comes pre-attached and is the easiest to move from place to place. The Shelf Clamp attaches the HoverBar Arm securely to a shelf or desk edge up to 1.5-inches thick for display in any orientation. Where and how you want to use your iPad will determine which option you choose. If you want to use the Desk Stand, simply clip in iPad (page 4) and you’re done. If you want to use the Shelf Clamp, proceed to installing Shelf Clamp

Clipping in iPad

  1. Holding the iPad horizontally, insert the bottom edge of iPad into the clip and push down to open the iPad Clip.
  2. When the top of the iPad Clip is expanded beyond the top edge of the iPad, lean the iPad back into the iPad Clip.
  3. Carefully release the iPad and let the HoverBar iPad Clip hold the iPad.
  4. Rotate and position the iPad into the desired placement and orientation.
    Note: It is recommended that when adjusting the position of iPad by a significant amount, remove the iPad first, reposition the HoverBar arms and iPad Clip to the approximate new location, then replace iPad and make final small adjustments with the iPad securely in place.
