you want to limit the Lower Arm rotation to
180° go to A1, if not skip to A2.

/16”) hole through the work surface where you

want the centre of the base to be.
NOTE: The hole should be at least 55mm (2.17”) from any work
surface edge to allow for the diameter of the base.

B5. Select the appropriate length bolt, 45mm or 60mm
depending on the work surface thickness.

SHORT (45mm) suits work
surface thickness between
14-28mm

(0.5”-1.1”).

LONG (60mm) suits work
surface thickness between
29-43mm (1.1”-1.7”).

When tensioning the Upper and Lower Arms take
note of the Visual Gauge on each arm.
This will help when installing multiple Levitate

Starting with the Lower Arm, tighten the Tension Bolt until the arm comfortably holds its
position wherever it is moved.
Once satised, repeat the process for the Upper Arm.

allow full movement at the joints.

TIP: If cable plugs are too big to t through
the joints, route the cables on the outside.

3. Push cables under retaining clips on the Upper and Lower
Arms to hold the cables in position.
