Note: There are 2 options for tabletop stand orientation. Each option results in a different viewing angle.
Orientation 1: Insert the stand into the panel with the tail facing down, creating a downward facing arc. This gives the panel a more forward-facing view, close to a 60° angle.
Orientation 2: Insert the stand into the panel with the tail facing upward, creating a curve upward. This gives the panel a more upward-facing view, close to a 30° angle.
2. Slide a stand grip onto each slot on the stand.
(Optional) To prevent the panel from sliding, attach the included non-slip base grips. Place one base grip on each corner of the panel.
