HELP! How to remove the base from the back of this monitor in order to use a VESA mount? The screws securing the arm to the monitor are concealed!

When shipped new, at the bottom of the plastic neck, there is a metal bracket inside that isheld witho one screw that has to be removed. Then, you have to pull very hard to get the internal metal bracket out. It took me awhile to realize how hard I had to pull to get it out. Darrin

Ummm, those seals are rubber and can be removed. I have 3 of these monitors mounted

The stand stem was already attached to the screen. I screwed the stem into the base. It doesn't look like the stem is removable from the back of the monitor.

There is no way to attach it to the stand. I don't ever move it off. I agree with the earlier response to simply move the monitor down

Hi,the back of the LCD monitor has a VESA standard mount with 100mm pattern. Hope this helps Eric

Usually, you do not use the arms at all. Those are for unusual TVs. Just about all the flat screen TVs, especially a 40" Samsung, will have "VESA" holes, and just line up with the plate you see the arms hanging off of. You simply leave the arms in the box, put the plate on the back of your TV, screw it on, and then it slides onto the arm. I was given one of these very mounts for Vine and I really like it. It's strong and articulates. I wish they would leave the arms off the photo, as it confuses folks and usually aren't used.

Interesting, all monitors I've seen have holes for screws like the Tv's. For this mount you would need to fix the black arm with screws

There are a couple of ways, you can grip monitor itself and move it up and down, but only by small degrees. The best thing to do is to adjust it to where you want it and leave it. You may need to loosen the connections in the back with the tool it came with ( or I think it might be a standard small Allen wrench). You may want to have a friend help you loosen the arm, while you adjust the monitor and then tighten.They are not super difficult to adjust, though it takes a little effort. However, once properly adjusted and tightened, they are great. I have two of them on my desk and have sold and set up lots of them for customers.

Yes, there are tiny screws (~5) and it comes off quite easily. However, the monitor gets its height from the "clear chin". In my case I mounted the monitor with arms, so I did not need the height. good luck

You have to detach the stand and mount with a wall mount. Very easy to do. Great monitor. I use 3 of them for my dental office.

There are any number of ways to assemble it. I actually just mounted the monitor to the arm after mounting the whole assembly to the wall, but I could have mounted the plate to the monitor and dropped the arm into the other arm. It would have also separated at the swivel plate on the wall, or at the swivel on the monitor mount. It would require disassembly, as it comes completely assembled. They do give you the tools, however throw the stamped wrench away. The provided hex key will do the job of separating the arms. You will have a large bag of hardware left over, as it covers almost all of the monitors made. There are any number of ways to assemble it.

It comes with a VESA mount as well as arms for a 3-monitor setup. Don't think it included screws; I guess the assumption is that the specif hardware required comes with the monitor(s).

There are four screw holes in a square on the back so I'd say a standard VESA mount would work. I haven't checked the documentation. hth,adric

If you look at the product picture, the main shaft that the articulating joints are on is adjustable, you can lower it right down to the base. you need to take into effect where the VESA mounting points on the monitor is also, some monitors have a dead center mounting point, some have it in the center but 1/4th of the way from the top.

It should just slide onto the back of the monitor the screws are not needed

It is via 4 screws (included) onto the VESA mount. So, make sure your monitor has VESA mount (square) on the back.

My Planar Monitor had holes where the original stand was attached. As another has suggested the monitor needs to be VESA compliant. There must be some type of stand that will have to be removed first before this one can be attached.

I think you are talking about the stand arm from the back of the monitor. I looked at it and couldn't figure it out. Looks like you have to take apart the entire screen to remove that arm.
