Ergonomic Guidelines
F
Recommended Mounting Position
When mounting the Spacedec Acrobat Swing Arm Wall, 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
B
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:
1
Tall Male (Max): 560mm (22”) Tall Female (Max): 520mm (20
1
/
Short Male (Min): 368mm (14
2”) Short Female (Min): 356mm (14”)
For visual comfort, a viewing distance (d) between 500mm (19
/
2”)
1
/
2”) to 750mm (29
1
/
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 Swing Arm Wall 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

Screws (x4)

Check the display, and then adjust again if necessary.

Loosen
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 Swing 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)
