5-1 Rotation

This product allows display rotation to any position or angle desired by the user. Please adhere to the following instructions during installation to prevent possible product damage and/or malfunction.
Following assembly, follow the sequence below to fix the DISPLAY in the desired position.
(a) Lower the DISPLAY UNIT in the direction of the arrow.
Rotate the NUT-FIX to allow for lowering. (Please refer to the product OPEN/CLOSE label.)
(b) Rotate the DISPLAY UNIT to the desired angle.
Do not rotate the DISPLAY UNIT in any direction for more that one full revolution. (Beware as the DISPLAY UNIT can be rotated continuously.)
(c) After setting the DISPLAY to the desired position, secure the NUT-FIX. (When raising
the DISPLAY UNIT, lateral movement is prevented.) Make sure to tighten the NUT-FIX after raising the DISPLAY UNIT to the desired height.
As excessive tightening of the NUT-FIX can result in product damage and/or malfunction, secure only to the extent that the DISPLAY UNIT is fixed and does not move.
As shown in figure (A), make sure to fully lower the DISPLAY UNIT before rotating. Rotation of the DISPLAY UNIT when it is not fully lowered will produce a clicking
sound. This sound does not indicate any product breakage and is a result of the friction between the POLE-MAIN RIB and the rotation section within the POLE­ADJUST. If the DISPLAY UNIT is fully lowered, this sound will not be produced.

Center Line
This product allows display tilting to any angle desired by the user. Please adhere to the following instructions during installation to prevent possible product damage and/or malfunction.
TILT ANGLE : The display can be angled left and right from the Center Line in 13° angle
intervals for a total of 4 steps, 5 positions. (Angling: 52°max.)
