Disassembling Lg Monitors: Removing From The Stand

If you want to disassemble your LG monitor and remove it from its stand, you'll need to first lay the monitor down on a flat surface with the stand pointing upwards. Then, simply unscrew the bottom screw of the cylinder to remove the feet. The top cosmetic cover of the cylinder has three plastic tabs that need to be pulled gently upwards until you can see the metal underneath—this will release the back tab. While maintaining this gentle pressure, give the cap a little twist to the left and then to the right to release the side tabs. Once the cover is off, remove the two screws underneath.

Steps to disassemble an LG monitor from its stand

Remove the bottom stand and leave the cylinder part

To remove the bottom stand and leave the cylinder part, you'll need to first lay the monitor down on a flat surface with the stand pointing upwards. Then, simply unscrew the bottom screw of the cylinder to remove the feet. This will allow you to separate the bottom stand from the cylinder part of the monitor.

It's important to ensure that the monitor stand angle is as low as possible before attempting to remove the bottom stand. This will make it easier to access the necessary parts and reduce the risk of damaging the monitor during the process.

Once the bottom stand is removed, you can focus on the top cosmetic cover of the cylinder. This cover is held in place by three plastic tabs. To release the back tab, gently pull up on the cover until you can see the metal underneath. While maintaining gentle upward pressure, twist the cap slightly to the left and right to release the side tabs.

With the cover removed, you will now have access to two screws underneath. Remove these screws, and you will have successfully removed the bottom stand while leaving the cylinder part of the LG monitor intact.

Adjust the monitor stand angle to its lowest

To adjust the monitor stand angle to its lowest, you will need to follow a few simple steps. First, ensure that your monitor is placed on a flat, stable surface, such as a table or desk. Next, check that the monitor is in an upright position and securely attached to the stand.

Now, you can adjust the monitor stand angle. Some LG monitor stands have a tilting feature that allows you to adjust the screen angle forward or backward. The typical range of this tilt adjustment is -5° to 15°. To tilt the screen, gently hold the sides of the monitor frame and adjust it to the lowest angle that suits your viewing preference.

It is important to note that the availability and method of height and angle adjustments may vary depending on your specific LG monitor model. Therefore, it is recommended to refer to your product manual for detailed instructions specific to your monitor.

Additionally, when adjusting the angle, be cautious not to touch or press the screen, as it could cause damage.

Remove the two clips close to where the cover meets the metal

To remove the two clips close to where the cover meets the metal, lay the monitor down on a flat surface with the stand pointing upwards. Unscrew the bottom screw of the cylinder to remove the feet. The top cosmetic cover of the cylinder has three plastic tabs keeping it in place. Pull gently up until you can see the metal underneath to release the back tab. While maintaining this gentle pressure, give the cap a little twist left and right to release the tabs on either side.

Once the cover is off, you will be able to see and remove the two clips. Remove these clips one at a time. It is recommended to use something flat, like your nail, to push against the side of the monitor to unclip it.

Pull the top cover gently up to release the back tab

To disassemble an LG monitor from its stand, first lay the monitor down on a flat surface with the stand pointing upwards. Then, pull the top cover gently upwards until you can see the metal underneath. This will release the back tab. While maintaining gentle upward pressure, twist the cap gently left and right to release the tabs on either side.

The top cover of the LG monitor is held in place by three plastic tabs. The back tab is released by pulling gently upwards, and the side tabs are released by twisting the cap gently left and right while maintaining gentle upward pressure. It is important to be gentle during this process to avoid damaging the monitor or the stand.

Once the cover is off, the two screws underneath can be removed. According to one source, the little nubbin that these screws go into cannot be removed. However, another source suggests that it is possible to remove this part by pushing it to the side with your nail or something flat.

After the cover and screws have been removed, the stand can be separated from the monitor. This process may vary depending on the model of the LG monitor, but the basic principle of releasing the back tab by pulling gently upwards remains the same.

Twist the cap left and right to release the side tabs

To disassemble an LG monitor from its stand, you will need to remove the decorative cover at the top. This can be challenging as it usually requires more force than expected. However, it is important not to pull too hard to avoid damaging the stand or the panel.

To remove the cover, first lay the monitor down on a flat surface with the stand pointing upwards. Unscrew the bottom screw of the cylinder to remove the feet. You will then be able to see three plastic tabs keeping the cover in place. Pull gently up until you can see the metal underneath and can release the back tab.

Now, for the step that you are specifically interested in: while maintaining this gentle upward pressure on the cover, twist the cap left and right to release the side tabs. This will require a gentle touch, but the tabs should release with a slight twist.

Once the cover is off, you will be able to see two screws underneath. Remove these with a screwdriver.
