Uplift Desk Zilker Single Monitor Arm User manual

Step 1.1 - Clamp
Peel the adhesive off the base cushion and attach it to the under-
side of the Base. Rest the Bottom plate onto the Base’s bolt. Fit
the Base around the back of the desk and tighten the Bolt & Bot-
tom plate into place using the 6 mm Allen wrench.
When placing the Bottom plate on the Base’s bolt, make sure the
edge farthest from the hole is facing the back of the Base and the
edge closest to the hole aligns with the front edge of the Bottom
clamp. If you’re attaching this to a UPLIFT V2 4-Leg Desk, this is
the only way it will t properly.

Step 1.2 - Bolt-through
To mount your monitor arm through a hole in your desktop, rst
measure the hole. It must be between a minimum of 0.4’’ and a
maximum of 3.15’’ in diameter.
Prepare the Base for the Bolt-through mount by rst loosen-
ing the screw under the Clamp with the 6 mm Allen wrench.
Note: screw may be tight. Once removed, separate the Clamp as-
sembly from the Base.
With the Base upside down, place the Base plate in the pocket
where the clamp assembly was. Then peel the adhesive backing
off of the Base cushion and attach it over the Base and Base plate
as shown.
Place assembly completely over the hole, and facing the front of
desk. Then, select a Long bolt: the 50 mm Bolt ts desks 0.6’’ to
1.38’’ thick, and the 70 mm Bolt ts desks 1.38’’ to 2.13’’ thick. Insert
the Long bolt through the Bottom plate.
Note: The Bottom plate must straddle the hole’s diameter. As
long as the hole isn’t larger than 3.15’’ than the Bottom plate will
work. Thread the bolt into the Base assembly by hand and tighten
using the 6 mm Allen wrench.
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 (follow Step 1.1) or through a hole from 0.4’’ to 3.15’’ in diameter (follow Step 1.2).

Note: If the Clamp does not t on your desk edge, you can in-
crease or decrease the space between the Clamp by removing
the bottom of the Clamp and the Bolt, and repositioning them.
Using the 4 mm Allen wrench, unscrew the two screws holding
the bottom of the Clamp (see g. 1).
For thinner desks (0.75’’ minimum), reassemble the Clamp as
shown in g. 2. For thicker desks (3.75’’ maximum), reassemble
the Clamp, as shown in g. 3.
Note: If you’re mounting this to an UPLIFT V2 4-Leg Desk, 2.5’’ will
be the maximum thickness that will work with the Clamp.
Once the Clamp is sized and attached to your desktop as de-
scribed above, continue on to Step 2.

Step 3
After all components from Step 2 are in place, you may choose to
tighten the Set screws which will lock all the components togeth-
er, and prevent them from separating or drifting.
The set screws are located at each insertion point, and marked in
this instruction book with a “ ”.
• At the back of the Base, on the post where the Extension arm is
inserted.
• At the top of the Extension arm where the Spring arm is insert-
ed.
Use the 2.5 mm Allen wrench provided. Make sure not to over-
tighten the set screws.

Step 2
With the Base attached to the desk, it’s time to assemble the
remainder of the arm by next inserting the Extension arm into
the Base.
Note: The Base comes with a pre-installed stopping-pin on the
post, (see g. 4) which limits the rotation of the arm to 180 de-
grees. If you want a full 360 degree rotation, remove the pin with
the 1.5mm Allen wrench.
Once the Extension arm is inserted, insert the Spring arm into the
Extension arm.
Step 4
Place your monitor face down on a at surface, making sure
not to scratch the screen. Next, attach the VESA mount to
the back of your monitor using a Phillips-head screwdriver
and four Monitor screws. The mount is designed to t the in-
dustry standard VESA 75 mm & 100 mm hole patterns. Make
sure the VESA mount is securely fastened to your monitor
before moving on to the next step.
Note: make sure the tab on the VESA mount is facing the top
of your monitor.

Step 5
Now, insert your monitor and VESA mount assembly into the
Monitor joint at the end of the Spring arm. Hold it rmly as
you insert it until you feel it click into place.
The Zilker Spring arm tension is factory set for the lightest
monitor weight. To adjust the tension if the monitor is too
heavy for the minimum setting, hold the Spring arm horizon-
tally and, using 5 mm Allen wrench, turn the set screw locat-
ed at the top-center of the Spring arm toward the “+”.
Keep adjusting the tension until the monitor arm holds its
position when you let it go.
Monitor Ergonomics
Screen Distance: Set screen about an arm’s length (approxi-
mately 18’’ - 28’’) from your eyes. If print is too hard to read, it is
better to make the print larger on your screen than to move the
screen closer to your eyes.
Monitor Height: The top of the monitor should be at or just
below eye level.
Monitor Tilt: The monitor should
be tilted slightly up so it’s easier to
see the screen when the top of the
monitor is level with your eyes. If the
ball-joint holding the monitor does
not move, loosen each screw using
the 4mm Allen wrench. This should
only take a couple of turns, each. If
you loosen too much, and the monitor
does not stay in place, tighten slightly.

Step 6
You can run your montior wires through special built-in wire
management features.
Under the Spring arm there is a clip through which your moni-
tor’s wires can run. (see g. 5).
Inside the Extension arm is a channel accessible by a removable
cover. Slide the cover up & out to place your wires, then replace
the cover in the reverse motion, in & down. (see gs 6-7)
