How to install Chief Small Bolt-Down Monitor Mount Table Stand

• Step 1: Prepare the installation area by selecting a sturdy, flat countertop with adequate clearance behind and around the mounting location. Ensure the surface can support the combined weight of the stand and display.
• Step 2: Position the bolt-down base where you want the monitor mounted. Use a marker to indicate bolt-hole locations through the base mounting holes, taking care to align with any pre-drilled holes or reinforced sections of the tabletop if present.
• Step 3: Drill pilot holes if required by your tabletop material and secure the base using the provided anchors or hardware. Tighten bolts evenly to avoid warping and to ensure a level base. Double-check that the base sits flush against the surface with no gaps.
• Step 4: Attach the monitor mounting plate to the back of your display according to the display’s VESA mounting pattern. Ensure all fasteners are snug but not over-tightened to avoid damage to the mounting holes.
• Step 5: With the display prepared, lift and align the display with the mounted base, then secure the monitor to the stand using the appropriate mounting screws. Confirm that the weight is evenly distributed and that the display is securely fastened.
• Step 6: Route power and data cables through the internal cable management channels. Use the provided clips or guides to keep cables tidy and prevent interference with the display tilt or movement.
• Step 7: Power on the system and perform a quick functional check. Verify that the display remains stable during typical use—touchpoints like customer interaction, frequent cable movement, or signage updates should not cause instability.
• Step 8: If needed, adjust the monitor position for optimal viewing angles from the customer side. While this model emphasizes a stable, low-profile setup, you can still fine-tune tilt or slight orientation to maximize readability and ensure accessibility for staff.
