Title: Monitor brackets on WG 7302
Post by: woodmedic on November 07, 2016, 10:16:51 am
Got a WG 7302 for my Ms. Pac and the brackets are set back causing the screen to protrude much farther than the 4900 I took out.  The brackets unbolt very easily and I was wondering if these monitors could come with a variety of brackets.  If so does anyone know where I could find some that would be flush rather than set back?

You could just flip them over, but you might be recessed a bit. Then use some strips of wood as shims to build up the space to get it sitting where you want it. My monitor (k4600) was missing the vertical mount brackets so i went to Home Depot and in the fastner aisle they have slotted angle iron. I cut it to length and it works great.

Hope this helps.

That's a good idea!  I actually did turn the brackets over.  I didn't think about the strips of wood to raise it back up though.  Thanks!
