Question about Ergotron LX Monitor Arm

so with mine, i could only get about 5-10° down from vertical. however, you can bend the 2 tabs that restrict this back to straight. then you can get about 40°. if you cut them away completely, you could get towards 90° (flat). however, you have to tug pretty hard against the spring force....

Good question - I checked: It can be swivelled downwards to a limited extent, approx. 30°. That's all.
