There are two ways to attach the Enfield Single Monitor Arm to your desktop. If you would like to attach it along the back edge of your desktop, follow the Clamp Method instructions starting on this page. If you prefer to attach it through your desktop, follow the Bolt-Through Method instructions starting.
Step 1
Determine your mounting method. There are two ways to attach the Enfield
Single Monitor Arm to your desktop:
Clamp Method: If you would like to attach the monitor arm along the back edge
of your desktop, follow the Clamp Method instructions (Steps 2 – 4).
Bolt-Through Method: If you prefer to attach the monitor arm through your
desktop, skip Steps 2 – 4 and follow the Bolt-Through Method instructions
(Steps 5 – 7).
Clamp Method
Step 2 (Clamp Method)
Align the Upper Clamp with the Base in the orientation shown and attach it
using the three M6x12 Flathead Screws and the 4mm Allen Wrench.
Step 3 (Clamp Method)
A. There are two sets of holes in the Upper Clamp to use for different desktop
thicknesses.
There are two screws pre-installed in the top two holes of the Upper Clamp.
Leave the screws in those holes if your desktop is between 0.4’’ and 2.1’’
thick (fig. 1)
If your desktop is between 2’’ and 3.3’’ thick, use the 4mm Allen Wrench to
remove the screws from the top two holes and insert them into the bottom two
holes (fig. 2)
B. Use the 4mm Allen Wrench to adjust the two screws in the Upper Clamp so
that there is about 0.25” of thread between the plate and screw heads.
C. Position the Lower Clamp assembly in the orientation shown and press it
against the Upper Clamp so the two screws go through the two key slot holes in
the Lower Clamp.
D. Slide the Lower Clamp assembly down so that the screws are at the top of
the key slot holes and tighten the screws with 4mm Allen Wrench.
Step 4 (Clamp Method)
A. Using the knob screw, adjust the bolt on the bottom of the Lower Clamp so
that the opening is wide enough to accommodate the thickness of the desktop.
B. Slide the assembly onto the back of the desktop, then tighten the knob
screw to secure the Base to the desktop.
Bolt-Through Method
Step 5 (Bolt-Through Method)
Ensure the desktop has a hole between 0.4’’ and 3.1’’ in diameter to use this
option.
Using a grommet hole that is already in your desktop is acceptable, or you can
drill a 0.5” diameter hole anywhere on your desktop.
Step 6 (Bolt-Through Method)
A. From the top of the Upper Base Plate (the side opposite from the
countersunk holes), insert the Long Bolt through the square hole until the
square shank of the Bolt fits into the Plate’s square hole.
B. Align the Upper Base Plate with the bottom of the base in the orientation
shown and attach it using the three M6x12 Flathead Screws and the 4mm Allen
Wrench.
Step 7 (Bolt-Through Method)
A. Lower the Base assembly to the desktop guiding the Long Bolt through the
hole in the desktop.
B. Slide the Lower Base Plate onto the Long Bolt and secure it against the
desktop with the M8 Washer and Nut.
C. Tighten the Nut with the Flat Wrench while ensuring the Lower Base Plate
straddles the hole.
D. Proceed with the Arm Assembly & Monitor Mounting, Step 8.
Arm Assembly & Monitor Mounting
Step 8
A. The Base comes with a pre-installed limiting screw in the post which limits
the rotation of the arm to 180 degrees. If you want to limit the rotation of
the arm to 180 degrees, leave this screw installed and use the 4mm Allen
Wrench to ensure it is tight (be careful not to overtighten).
B. If you want the arm to rotate a full 360 degrees, remove this screw with
the 4mm Allen Wrench.
We recommend saving the screw in case you decide to limit the rotation of the
arm in the future.
Step 9
Slide the Lower Arm onto the post of the Base until it is fully seated and
tighten the set screw at the back of the Lower Arm with the flathead end of
the 4mm Allen Wrench (or a small flat head screwdriver). This will secure the
Lower Arm to the Base and keep it from becoming separated during adjustment.
Step 10
Warning, Pinch Point: Pay attention! When handling the Upper Arm, keep hands
and fingers clear of the Upper Arm’s pivot location when moving, installing,
and making adjustments to the Enfield Monitor Arm.
A. Slide the post of the Upper Arm into the hole at the top of the Lower Arm
until it is fully seated.
B. Tighten the set screw on the front of the Lower Arm with the flat-head end
of the provided 4mm Allen Wrench (or a small flat head screwdriver).
This will prevent the Upper Arm from becoming separated from the Lower Arm
during adjustment.
Step 11
Reminder: The acceptable monitor weight range for the Enfield Single
Monitor Arm is 4.4 lb to 19.8 lb.
A. Lay your monitor face down on a clean surface or a towel to prevent damage
to your screen.
B. Test the M4x12 and M5x12 Screws in your monitor’s screw holes to determine
which is the right size for your monitor.
C. Line up the holes of the VESA Plate with the holes= on your monitor,
orienting the VESA Plate as shown, with the VESA Plate’s knob pointing toward
the top of the monitor.
D. Attach the VESA Plate to the monitor using the selected screws with the M5
Washers.
Step 12
A. Make sure the knob on the VESA Plate is in the “Unlock” position,
perpendicular to the monitor.
B. Slide the VESA Plate into the slot shown in the Upper Arm.
C. Once the VESA Plate is inserted all the way into the Upper Arm, turn the
knob on the VESA Plate to the “Lock” position, parallel to the monitor.
D. Pull up slightly on your monitor to make sure it is locked securely in
place.
Step 13
A. Move the monitor to any position and release it. If the monitor does not
drift up or down, the arm is properly counterbalanced.
B. If the monitor does not remain where you positioned it, you will need to
adjust the tension of the spring to properly support the weight of your
monitor using the 6mm Allen Wrench on the tension adjustment screw (located at
the back end of the Upper Arm). View how much the spring is tensioned via the
tension indicator on top of the Upper Arm.
Caution: To prevent damage to the tension indicator, never adjust the counterbalance screw so that the red indicator line moves past the “+” or “-” symbols.
- If the monitor drifted down, hold the Upper Arm in a horizontal position and use the 6mm Allen Wrench to turn the adjustment screw so that the tension indicator moves toward the “+” symbol until the monitor remains in place when you let go.
- If the monitor drifted upward, turn the adjustment screw so that the tension indicator moves towards the “-” symbol until the monitor remains in place when you let go.
Step 14
A. You can rotate the monitor to be in either portrait or landscape
orientation.
B. If the monitor does not hold in place when rotated, tighten the screws
shown with a Phillips Head screwdriver to keep the monitor in position.
Step 15
A. To adjust the front and back tilt of your monitor, loosen the socket head
screw on the side of the Upper Arm where shown with the 4mm Allen Wrench.
B. Once the monitor is at your preferred viewing angle, re-tighten the screw
with the Allen Wrench to hold the monitor in place.
Step 16
A. To use the arm’s wire management, first remove the built-in wire covers.
B. There are two wire covers the arm, one located under the Upper Arm and the
other under the Lower Arm. They are removed by gripping the sides of the cover
and sliding it forward (toward the monitor) to unlock and remove. Be careful
not to pull down on the cover, doing so may damage the covers.
C. Run your cables up and under each section of the monitor arm and replace
the covers the opposite way that they were removed.
Step 17
A. If you have selected the Clamp Method, you can now snap the Wire Cover onto
the back of the Upper Clamp on the Base as shown and insert your monitor
cables through the integrated clip.
B. In addition to holding the cables in place, there are convenient holes to
store the Allen Wrenches for future adjustment needs.
C. The Wire Cover adds 0.75” to the back of the monitor arm. If your desk is
close to a wall or cubicle, or has a privacy panel attached to the back of the
desktop, there may not be enough space available to attach the Wire Cover.
