DM-552 / LEVITOUCH DUAL ARM
MONITOR MOUNT
for 17 to 32 in. Desktop Computer Monitors
LeviTouchDM-552

2
The Gabor Dual-Arm Desktop Mount can securely support two monitors
from 17 to 32 inches. The stylish yet rugged aluminum build will hold two
monitors, each weighing up to 19.8 pounds, and the adjustable spring
tension mechanism makes it easy to adjust your monitors to the perfect
viewing height. Both mounts consist of two articulating halves that give
you maximum control over swivel, tilt, and rotation, precise monitor
placement, and optimum viewing angles.
Both articulating arms have adjustable spring tension that ensures
monitor stability. The included VESA plates accommodate monitors with
75 × 75 and 100 × 100 VESA patterns, and they feature integrated locks
to ensure monitor safety when adjusting screen height. A heavy-duty,
low-profile clamp and base will fit into any space with tight clearance,
like a cubicle, and for mid-desk attachment, the stand includes mounting
hardware for grommet installation.
Thank you for choosing Gabor.

1. Attach the flange (E) to the base (F) with
the three hex screws (J). Tighten them with
hex key (N) until secure.
2. Fit the flange behind the desk. You may
need to remove the flange bolts if the space
between the desk and wall is too tight.
3. Before you attach the clamp to the flange,
measure the thickness of the table or
desktop.
• If the desktop is 0.4 to 2 inches thick, screw
the flange bolts into the top holes.
• If the desktop is 2 to 3.3 inches thick,
remove the flange bolts from the top holes,
and screw them into the bottom holes.
To attach the clamp to the flange, fit the
wide end of the clamp holes over the flange
bolts, and press down on the clamp so it
securely sits on the flange bolts.
Important! The clamp should rest on the flange
bolts. If the clamp is not parallel to the bottom
of the base, loosen the flange bolts until the
clamp rests entirely on them.
4. Tighten the flange bolts with hex key (N)
until secure.
5. With the flange flush against the edge of
the desktop, tighten the clamp locking knob
until the base is secured to the desktop.
Parts Included
Important! Predrilled holes in the desktop should be between of 0.4 to 2.4 inches (10 to 60 mm)
in diameter.
1. If you need to drill a hole in
the desktop, use a 3/8-inch
or 10 mm drill bit.
2. Attach the notch cover (G)
to the bottom of the base
with the flat hex screws (J).
Make sure the flat side of
the cover is even with the
edge of the base.

Important! Before you attach the VESA plate,
hand thread one of the M-A or M-B screws to
determine which one fits your monitor.
Make sure the screw is also not too long or too
short. If the screw is too long, it may damage
the display. If it’s too short, it may not hold it.
Place an M-C washer on each of the screws, and install the VESA
plate directly to your monitor by tightening the screws with hex
key (N).
Important! The screws should be tightened until snug. Don’t
overtighten.

1. Once the VESA plate is securely attached to the
monitor, slide it into the VESA receiver.
2. Turn the VESA lock to the locked position.
Important! The VESA lock secures the VESA plate
inside the VESA mount and ensures the monitor won’t
lift out of the mount when you adjust the monitor
height.
To remove the monitor, unlock the VESA lock and lift
the monitor off the mount.
You can adjust the arm tension to balance the arm according to the weight of your monitor.
1. Remove the end cap from the arm to expose
the arm tension screw.
2. With the monitor attached, hold the arm
horizontally so it’s parallel with the desktop.
• If the arm drops, tighten the arm tension screw by
turning it clockwise with hex key (O) until the monitor
stays in the horizontal position.
• If the arm rises, loosen the arm tension screw by
turning it counterclockwise with hex key (O) until the
monitor stays in the horizontal position.
Important! Do not overtighten the tension screws.
To prevent damage to the tension indicator, never let the
red indicator line move beyond the + and – signs at the
ends of the indicator.
Tip: Always use one hand to support the monitor from
below while adjusting the arm tension.
3. When the arm is balanced, replace the end cap.
