B.2. For Masonry Mounting - Use the Direct Wall Mount Bracket to mark the location of the required four holes. (see diagram B.1.1.) Using an 8mm masonry drill bit, drill four holes 41mm deep. Insert the Nylon Anchors and then secure the Bracket to the wall using the M6 Coach Screws. (see diagram B.2.1.)

Ergonomic Guidelines

Recommended Mounting Position

When mounting the Spacedec Acrobat Wall Articulated Arm, ensure the correct focal distance can be achieved for ultimate visual comfort (Refer to Recommended Viewing Distance / Height below)

Wall Mount

Recommended Viewing Distance / Height

Ergonomists recommend that the optimal position of your screen should be slightly below eye level. When looking at the screen’s centre the user should have a downward visual angle of approximately 10°-20°. As a guide, the height (h) of your display should approximately be as follows:

Tall Male (Max): 560mm (22”) Tall Female (Max): 520mm (20

Short Male (Min): 368mm (14

2”) Short Female (Min): 356mm (14”)

For visual comfort, a viewing distance (d) between 500mm (19

2”)

2”) to 750mm (29

2”) is recommended.

Angular adjustments to reduce reflection on your monitor should range between 5° forward tilt to 15° backward tilt.

Adjusting the Display

The Spacedec Acrobat Wall Articulated Arm comes factory set to support 6kg displays. Adjust the arm to suit the weight of your display as shown in the following steps:

G.1. Adjusting the Ball Joint Resistance

Depending on the weight of the display, it may be necessary to make adjustments to the Ball Joint Mechanism. If the display doesn’t hold its position or is too resistant, adjust the four tension screws located around the Ball Joint (see diagram on the right) using the supplied 2.5mm Allen Key.

Check the display, and then adjust again if necessary.

NOTE: Be sure to adjust screws evenly.

G.2. Adjusting the Pivot Head Resistance

It is possible to control the amount of resistance in the Pivot Head to suit your display.

To increase the resistance of the Pivot Head to suit heavier displays, use the 5mm Allen Key supplied in the Desk Clamp Box to tighten the interscrew in a clockwise direction.

To decrease the resistance of the Pivot Head to suit lighter displays, loosen the interscrew in an anti-clockwise direction.

NOTE: It is recommended the Pivot Head be left at the factory setting for best performance.

G.3. Adjusting the Articulated Arm/Gas Strut Resistance

G. 3.1. Depending on the weight of the display, it

may be necessary to adjust the arm. This can be done by using the 5mm Allen Key supplied in the Desk Clamp Box.

G.3.2. If the arm tends to automatically rise or fall when the display is attached, it will be necessary to make small adjustments to the gas strut. (see diagram on the right)
