Everyday Use: How to Attach and Detach
Your Monitor
SideTrak’s metal plate will stay on your laptop, making it easy
for you to attach and detach your SideTrak whenever you need!
To reattach your monitor, angle the SideTrak slightly, “hooking”
the mounting frame to the top of the metal plate. You should feel
SideTrak click onto the magnets and hear a loud click.
Wiggle the monitor’s mounting frame. If it pops off then it is not
fully clicked in. Remember to listen for the loud click when it is
properly placed.
To detach your monitor, simply pull monitor off.
To Permanently Remove Metal Plate
To permanently remove the metal plate, use the plastic removal tool
included with your SideTrak to remove adhesive from laptop surface.
Follow the steps above to reattach or to use your SideTrak
with a different laptop. You can use the spare metal plate included!
