Troubleshooting
Monitor arm drifts down or won't hold position
The gas-spring tension needs adjustment. Use the hexagonal wrench to tighten the tension screw (typically marked with '+' or 'F') according to your monitor's weight. Refer to the manual for specific instructions.
Difficulty moving the monitor up or down
Check if the gas-spring tension is set too high for the monitor's weight. Try loosening the tension screw (typically marked with '-' or 'R'). Ensure the monitor's weight is within the supported range (up to 9 kg).
Monitor wobbles excessively
Ensure all mounting screws (VESA to monitor, arm to desk) are fully tightened. Check that the desk clamp or grommet mount is securely fastened to a stable desk surface. Verify the monitor's weight is within the arm's capacity.
Clamp does not fit my desk
Verify your desk thickness is between 1 cm (0.4") and 8.5 cm (3.3"). If it's outside this range, consider using the grommet mount option if your desk has a suitable hole, or explore alternative mounting solutions.
Missing hardware (screws, washers)
Double-check all packaging materials. If hardware is genuinely missing, contact StarTech.com customer support for replacements.
