To remove display from the extrusion, pull both release cord rings down while pulling bottom of display away from wall and lift display off flange of extrusion. (FIGURE AB) NOTE: When installing monitors on VDM-3X1-WM, start with the center display first before installing monitors on ends of extrusion. B Release Cord FIGURE AB Page 19

Micro Adjustments 1. If the display is uptilted, rotate the adjustment screws as shown in figure below using hex wrench (S). (FIGURE AC) S S FIGURE AC 2. Rotate the adjustment screws as shown below to make adjustments to align displays using hex wrench (S). (FIGURE AD) S S S FIGURE AD Page 20

FINAL ASSEMBLY 1. With extrusion evenly spaced between brackets, install button head socket screw (L) into back of each tilt bracket (B) (either left or right side of bracket) to secure extrusion in place using hex key (U). (FIGURE AE) Model Screw (K) Qty. VDM-2X1-WM 2 3 VDM-3X1-WM B U L FIGURE AE 2. Install safety stops by sliding (2x) square nut (W) into front slots in extrusion as shown and install (2x) short pan head screw (V). Tighten both screws flush with end of extrusion. Repeat both ends. (FIGURE AF) 3. Install end cap (E) with (2x) flat head screw (F), both ends. (FIGURE AF) NOTE: If assembly needs to be tilted, follow Tilt Adjustment procedure on page 16.
