for Medium Flat-Panel Displays

The Gabor Modern Easel Display Stand is a stylish way to support your display in any apartment, office, home theater, or trade show. The stand’s
smooth wooden and metal finish will elegantly display flat-panel monitors from 40 to 60 inches, and up to 70 pounds. Your screen will sit at an optimal
viewing height on three stable wooden legs, and the cable management will keep your setup looking clean, without cords everywhere. There is added
security with an anti-tipping system, which protects your display from accidentally tipping if anyone gets too close.
Thank you for choosing Gabor.

Mounting the Display On the Easel Stand
Important! We recommend that
two people perform this step.
Note: Make sure the display is not
resting directly on the riser.
Step 1

It’s important to use the security cable system for additional protection against tipping over
caused by accidental bumping or movement of the easel and your display.
Caution: Wooden studs run vertically inside the wall. The security clamps must be mounted
to wooden studs at least 1.5 inches wide and spaced 16 inches apart, or the clamps could fall
out and result in damage to your display or cause serious personal injury.
1. Use a stud finder to locate the edges of the
wooden studs, and mark the center. Use a
pencil to mark drilling holes for the four
anchor screws.
2. Use a 1/8-inch (3.5 mm) wood drill bit to
predrill the marked spots 1.6 inches (40 mm)
deep, and then clean out the debris from the
holes.

3. Use the four anchor screws to attach the

Caution! Make sure the concrete wall or block is solid and at least 8 inches (20 cm)
thick. Install the security clamps at least 16 inches apart. If the concrete exhibits
cracks or other defects, this may result in failure of the wall anchors and cause
serious personal injury or damage your display.
Warning! Do not drill into the mortar
between concrete blocks.
1. Use a pencil to mark drilling
holes for the four anchor screws.
2. Use a 9/32-inch (7 mm) concrete
drill bit to predrill the marked
spots 1.6 inches (40 mm) deep,
and then clean out the debris
from the holes.
3. Use a hammer to tap the
wall anchors into the
predrilled holes.
4. Use the four anchor screws
to attach the security
clamps to the wall. Use the
Philips screwdriver to further
tighten the screws, but do
not overtighten.
