• How can I assess whether my desktop environment and workspace are suitable for the use of the AM01/AM02?

  Desktop Material Restrictions: It is recommended to use solid wood, durable engineered wood, or metal desktops. Desktops made of glass, hollow core, or honeycomb structures are more fragile and, therefore, not suitable for monitor stand installation, as uneven stress may cause damage to the surface.

  Desk Edge Structure Restrictions: If the desk edge features a bevel or a large rounded corner exceeding 2.5 cm, the desk clamp may not secure properly. In such cases, a through-desk mounting method is advised.

  Under-Desk Clearance: If there are frames, crossbars, or partitions located too close to the desk edge underneath, the clamp may be obstructed and unable to fasten securely. Under these circumstances, a through-desk mounting solution is necessary.

  Supported Desktop Thickness: The AM01 and AM02 support desktop thicknesses—from 15 mm to 70 mm (0.59" to 2.76")—for both clamp and through-desk mounting options.

  Rear Clearance: If your desk is positioned flush against a wall with less than 11 cm of clearance between the desktop and the wall, the desk clamp may not fit properly. Additionally, please ensure sufficient space to accommodate the stand’s range of motion to prevent collisions with the wall when rotating or adjusting the monitor’s depth.

• After installing the AM02 monitor arm, do I need to adjust the monitor’s tilt tension?

  If you are using an iMac, no additional tilt tension adjustment is required. The AM02 is factory-calibrated to the optimal tension value, so no further adjustments are necessary.
  If sagging still occurs:
  Please ensure that the total weight of all items mounted on the monitor arm is between 3.86 and 5.7 kg.
  If this condition is met, please use the hex wrench provided in the cable management box and follow the instructions below to make adjustments:

• Are there any recommended cable lengths for cable management?

  The base cable management box is primarily designed to store peripheral cables and does not have any specific cable length requirements.
  For managing cables along the rear arm of the bracket:
  Taking the cables connected directly to the monitor as an example (e.g., if you have 4 Type-C cables), a length of 1.5 meters is recommended if you plan to move, extend, or adjust the height of the arm.

• If my desk cannot accommodate a clamp and does not have a pre-drilled hole, how can I install the INFTYLAB Studio Arm series using the grommet method?

  If the desk is not suitable for using a clamp and there are no existing holes on the desktop:
  The grommet supports desktop thicknesses ranging from 10 mm to 70 mm.
  If the desktop does not have pre-drilled holes, the material must be sturdy enough to allow drilling.
  When using the grommet, the distance between the hole and the desk edge may need to be considered.

  Please note:
  The grommet requires the arm to be fixed in the same position for an extended period. If you frequently need to move the arm or prefer not to leave marks on the desktop, this installation method may not be suitable.
  Common cable management holes on desks typically have sufficient diameter for grommet mounting, but please remember to thread any cables through the hole before securing the mounting bracket.
