Installation
Step 1 — Fit the caps and screw the holder under the desk
- Press the plastic caps (D) into the holes of the holder (A), as the details in the drawing show.
- Hold the top plate of the holder against the underside of the desktop and screw it on with the four screws (B) and washers (C), using a cross-head screwdriver.
Step 2 — Slide the holder out
- Loosen the knob on the top rail.
- Pull the holder out from under the desk along the rail, so that you can put the computer in comfortably.
Step 3 — Fit the computer
- Stand the computer on the bottom tray of the holder. The case must be lower than the extended holder.
- Slide the upper part of the holder down until the top bracket rests on the case, and push the side clamp against the case (details 1 and 2).
- Tighten the locking lever on the side of the holder so that the computer cannot move.
Step 4 — Slide the holder back and lock it
- Push the holder with the computer back under the desk along the rail (detail 1).
- Tighten the knob on the top rail so that the holder stays in place (detail 2).
Using the holder
- To reach the ports, loosen the knob on the rail, slide the holder out and turn it: the holder hangs on a pivot in the top plate and swivels through +180° ~ −180°
- To take the computer out, release the locking lever, slide the upper part of the holder up, lift the side clamp off the case and lift the computer off the tray
- To fit a different case, set the height and the depth again as in step 3
- The holder needs no maintenance beyond checking the screws, the knob and the lever from time to time

- Use protective equipment and suitable tools.
- Use the screws supplied and do not overtighten them.

Frequently asked questions
What is the maximum load capacity of the SolidHand-PC19?
The SolidHand-PC19 supports computers weighing up to 10 kg, covering the vast majority of desktop towers and mini-PCs available on the market.
How much can I adjust the mount position?
The mount offers height adjustment from 30 to 51 cm and depth adjustment from 8.8 to 20.3 cm. The full 360° swivel (+180° ~ −180°) lets you rotate the computer to access any port without removing it from the holder.
Does mounting the computer under the desk affect cooling?
Raising the computer off the floor and positioning it under the desk actually improves airflow around the unit. The steel construction does not block ventilation openings, and keeping the computer away from floor dust helps maintain better long-term cooling performance.
Do I have to unscrew the holder to get at the back of the computer?
No. Loosen the knob on the top rail, slide the holder out from under the desk and turn it on its pivot. The computer stays strapped in the holder.
What tools do I need?
A cross-head screwdriver for the four screws that fix the top plate under the desktop. The height, depth and rail adjustments are made by hand with the lever and the knob.
Will the holder fit a small form factor case?
The case has to be at least 30 cm high and 8.8 cm wide for the clamps to hold it. Measure the case before ordering.
