1. Clamp Installation
1. Secure clamping plates (3) to base (5) with bolts (C) using 4mm Allen key (F) and tighten – see
Diagram ‘A’.
2. Slide clamp (4) over clamping plate (3) and straighten to lock into place. Repeat with the 2nd clamp and

Diagram ‘A’ Diagram ‘B’
3. Measure the thickness of your desk, adjust the height of your clamps so when tightening the clamps
have enough thread on them to secure to desktop – see Diagram ‘C’.
4. Secure base assembly to the desktop making sure base is in full contact with the face of the desktop
and cables run through the back of the base – see Diagram ‘D’.
Please note:
If you are mounting heavy screens on this monitor arm please evaluate the desktop/ work-surface
you are mounting it to. (Example: Wooden surfaces like chipboard or MDF are compressed high
density boards and are less likely to cause marks or indentations. Natural wooden surfaces are
softer (not compressed) so you may consider adding protection.

2. Through the Desk Installation
1. Locate and position where you want the monitor arm base (5) to sit on your desktop/work-surface.
50mm minimum is needed from the rear of the desk so the monitor arm base makes full contact with the
desktop/work-surface – see Diagram ‘E’.
2. Measure and mark out with a pencil where you want the hole and drill the hole using a 10mm drill bit.
Please note:
If you are mounting heavy screens on this monitor arm please evaluate the desktop/work-surface you
are mounting it to. (Example: Wooden surfaces like chipboard or MDF are compressed high density
boards and are less likely to cause marks or indentations. Natural wooden surfaces are softer (not

6. Mounting the Monitor
Please note: It is advisable to do both steps 6 and 7 with one monitor at a time.
1. Check monitor VESA by measuring the distance between the mounting holes on the back of the screen –
this is where bolts A or B will fit.
2. Screw two bolts into the top two holes on the back of the monitor using 5mm bolts (A) or (B) and tighten
in three turns leaving room between the bolt head and rear of screen for hanging the monitor – see
Diagram ‘R’.
3. Carefully lift monitor and hang onto the face plate see Diagram ‘S’.
4. Fit the bottom two bolts into the face plate and tighten all the bolts – see Diagram ‘T’.

7. Using Your Invision MX900 Ergonomic Monitor Arm
Setting the tension of the monitor arms to balance the weight of your monitors
Once fitted the screen may rise or lower depending on the monitor’s weight. From minimum
tension to maximum tension there are 22x full rotations. When making adjustments make one full
turn of the Allen key (F) and check by depressing the upper arm to see if the monitor is
balanced evenly.
1. If the screen moves upwards of its own accord then adjust the tension using the 5mm Allen key (F)
and wind the set screw in the minus direction (clockwise).
2. If the screen moves downwards of its own accord then adjust the tension using the 5mm Allen key
and wind the set screw in the plus direction (anti-clockwise) – see Diagram ‘U’.
Continue to make adjustments until the monitor weight feels equal in both directions to the tension
of the monitor arm. It should then hold in place when positioning the monitor and will not rise or
lower of its own accord.

8. Adjusting the Tilt Angle
The tilt can be set to your desired viewing angle by simply moving the screen backwards and forwards by
hand. If the screen moves freely you need to adjust the tension, follow the steps below.
1. To tighten the tilt adjustment use the 5mm Allen key (F) and turn the adjustment bolt in the plus direction
– see Diagram ‘V’. For heavier screens (9 - 12kg) the adjustment screw needs to be tightened to the
maximum. Repeat to the second monitor if needed.
Diagram ‘V’
9. Rotational Features
1. Your monitor arm allows you to rotate your screen through 360 degrees to view in portrait mode or
landscape mode providing the VESA mount on your screen is central.
