Assembly Instructions
WARNING: This product contains a spring mechanism that can cause injury. Be careful when removing monitors as the arm can
spring up when the weight of the monitor is removed.
Note: There are two ways to attach to your desktop: Clamp and Bolt-through mount. Determine if you need to attach it around the
back side of your desk or through a hole from 0.4’’ to 3.15’’ in diameter.
Acceptable monitor weight range: 2.2 to 33 lb
Desktop thickness compatibility: Clamp Method: 0.4”-3.3” thick | Bolt-through Method: 0.4”-1.8” thick
Step 1 - Clamp
If you purchased the Crestview Monitor Arm Wiring Kit,
assemble that FIRST, before proceeding. Refer to the
separate instructions contained in the Crestview Monitor
Arm Wiring Kit (ACC076) package for complete details.
Step 2
Determine your mounting method. There are two ways to
attach the Crestview Single Monitor Arm to your desktop:
Clamp Method: If you would like attach the monitor arm
along the back edge of your desktop, follow the Clamp
Method instructions (Steps 3 - 5) and ensure your desk is
between 0.4” and 3.3” thick.
Bolt-Through Method: If you prefer to attach the monitor
arm through your desktop, skip steps 3 - 5 and follow
the Bolt-Through Method Instructions (Steps 6 - 9) and
ensure your desk is between 0.4” and 1.8” thick.
Step 3 (Clamp Method)
A. Align the Upper Clamp with the Base in the orientation
shown. Attach using four M6 x 12 Flathead Screws and
the 4mm Allen Wrench.
B. Then peel the adhesive backing off of the Adhesive
Pad and attach it to the bottom of the Base and Upper
Clamp as shown. Align the pad with the front edge of
the Base rst, then work to the back.

Step 4 (Clamp Method)
A. Use the 4mm Allen Wrench to adjust the four pre-
installed screws on the back of the Lower Clamp so
that there are about 0.25” of thread between the plate
and screw heads.
B. Insert the four screws of the Lower Clamp through four
of the key slot holes in the back of the Upper Clamp as
shown. There are two sets of key slot holes to choose
from for different desktop thicknesses.
• For Desks 0.4” to 2.25” use the top four key slot holes
(g. 1)
• For Desks 2” to 3.3” use the bottom four key slot
holes (g. 2)
C. Slide the Lower Clamp assembly down so that the
screws are at the bottom of the key slot holes then
tighten screws with 4mm Allen Wrench.

Step 6 (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” hole anywhere on your desktop.
Step 5 (Clamp Method)
A. Using the 6mm Allen Wrench, adjust both bolts on the
bottom of the Lower Clamp so that the opening is wide
enough to accommodate the thickness of the desktop
and Lower Base Plate.
B. Place the outer holes of the Lower Base Plate onto the
tips of the bolts as shown.
C. Slide the assembly onto the back of the desktop,
then tighten the bolts using the 6mm Allen Wrench.
Alternate from one bolt to the other, to allow the Lower
Base Plate to rise evenly before nally tightening to the
desktop.
D. If you chose the Clamp Method for mounting, please
skip the Bolt-Through Method Steps 6-9 and proceed
with Step 10.
Step 7 (Bolt-Through Method)
A. Align the Upper Base Plate with the Base in the
orientation shown and attach it using the four M6 x 12
Flathead Screws and the 4mm Allen Wrench.
B. Then peel the adhesive backing off of the Adhesive Pad
and attach it to the bottom of the Base and Upper Base
Plate as shown. Align the pad with the front edge of the
Base rst, then work to the back.

Step 8 (Bolt-Through Method)
A. Remove one of the bolts from the bottom of the Lower
Clamp using the 6mm Allen Wrench. Slip it through
the Lower Base Plate’s center hole as shown.
B. If assembling on an adjustable height desk, raise the
desk so the desktop hole is easier to see. Then insert
the bolt through the desktop hole from below, and hold
them in place.
Step 9 (Bolt-Through Method)
A. While holding the Lower Base Plate and bolt in place
from below, line up the hole of the Base assembly
(from Step 7) with the top of the bolt.
B. Make sure the front of the Base assembly is facing
towards the front of yoHold the Base assembly in
place on top as you hand tighten the bolt from below
to get the threads started. Once the bolt is started,
you can let go of the Lower Base Plate. Use the 6mm
Allen Wrench to nish tightening the assembly to the
desktop.
C. Proceed with the Arm Assembly, Step 10.
Step 10
A. Slide the Lower Arm onto the post of the Base until it
is fully seated and tighten the lower set screw with the
at-head end of the 3mm Allen Wrench (or a small at
head screwdriver). This will secure the Lower Arm to
the Base and keep it from becoming separated during
adjustment.
B. The Lower Arm can swivel a full 360° or can be set to
allow only a range of 180°.
• To allow 360° of rotation, leave the upper set screw
alone, and the Lower Arm will rotate a full 360°
around past the back of the desk.
• To limit the Lower Arm to only 180° of rotation,
tighten the upper set screw. This setting is helpful
when your desk is located against a wall or you are
installing a privacy panel to the back of the desk. Do
not over-tighten this set screw, doing so may hinder
arm movement.

Step 12
Reminder: Acceptable monitor weight range for the
Crestview Single Monitor Arm is 2.2 lb to 33 lb.
A. Lay your monitor face down on a clean surface or a
towel to prevent damage to your screen.
B. Test the M4 x 12 and M5 x 12 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. Make sure the word “TOP” is facing the
top of the monitor.
D. Attach the VESA Plate to the monitor using the
selected screws with the M5 Washers.
Step 13
A. Pull the tab on the Upper Arm back and slide the VESA
Plate in (as shown in the illustration) until the tab on
the Upper Arm clicks into place
B. Pull up slightly on your monitor to make sure it is
locked securely in place.
Step 11
A. Slide the Upper Arm into the hole on the Lower Arm
until it is fully seated
B. Tighten the set screw on the Lower Arm with the
at-head end of the provided 3mm Allen Wrench (or
a small at head screwdriver). This will prevent the
Upper Arm from becoming separated from the Lower
Arm during adjustment.

Step 14
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 Arm does not remain where you positioned it,
you will need to adjust the tension of the gas spring to
properly support the weight of your monitor.
• If the monitor drifts down when you let it go, hold
the Arm in a horizontal position as shown and use
the 6mm Allen Wrench to turn the adjustment
screw toward the “+” until the monitor remains in
place when you let go.
• If the monitor drifts upward when you let go, turn
the adjustment screw towards the “-” until the
monitor remains in place when you let go.
Step 15
A. To adjust the front and back tilt of your monitor, loosen
the socket head screw on the side of the VESA Mount
with the 6mm 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, rst remove the
built-in wire covers.
B. The Upper Wire Cover is located on the bottom side of
the Arm and is held in place by a screw at the top end
and a clip at the bottom end. Remove the screw with a
Phillips head screwdriver and slide the cover slightly
toward the Worksurface to disengage the clip and
remove the cover.
C. The Lower Wire Cover is located on the Lower Arm and
is removed by hooking a nger through the bottom
opening in the cover, then holding it rm while pulling
it forward to unlock.
D. Run your cables under the Arms where the wire covers
were located and then replace the covers. Your cables
should run through each end of both the Upper and
Lower Wire Covers.
E. Reinstall the screw to secure the Upper Wire Cover.

8
Step 17
A. If you have selected the Clamp Method, you can now
snap the Wire Cover onto the back of the Upper Clamp
as shown and insert your monitor cables through the
two integrated clips.
B. The Wire Cover adds 0.8” to the back of the Clamp
assembly. 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.
Height Adjustment
The center of the VESA mount can go as high as 23” and
as low as 10’’ from the desktop.
Monitor Tilt
The Monitor can tilt at the VESA mount forward or
backward within a range of 90° (+/-45°).
Monitor Swivel
The Monitor can swivel 180° (+/-90°) at the hinge at the
top of the Upper Arm.
Monitor Rotation
The Monitor can rotate at the VESA mount 180° (+/-90°)
allowing landscape or portrait viewing.

Upper Arm Swivel
The Upper Arm can swivel a full 360°. However, we do not
recommend swiveling the monitor past the back of the
desk as this may cause instability.
Lower Arm Swivel
The Lower Arm can swivel a full 360° or can be set to allow
only a range of 180°.
See Step 10 in the “Arm Assembly & Monitor Mounting”
section for adjustment details.
