Getting Started Choose Desk Stand or Shelf Clamp

 

HoverBar includes both a freestanding, weighted Desk Stand and a Shelf Clamp. The Desk Stand comes pre-attached and is the easiest to move from place to place. The Shelf Clamp attaches the HoverBar Arm securely to a shelf or desk edge up to 1.5 inches thick for display in any orientation. Where and how you want to use your iPad will determine which option you choose. If you want to use the Desk Stand, simply clip in iPad (page 4) and you’re done. If you want to use the Shelf Clamp, proceed to install the Shelf Clamp.
