Important Compatibility Information
The 97-585 is designed for compatible TeachWell Mobile Digital Workspace systems. Most laptops with screens up to 18.4 inches are supported, provided the laptop also meets the maximum width, screen-thickness and weight requirements.
The laptop kit supports up to 3.6 kg (8 lb). Installing it reduces the cart's head-assembly capacity by 1.8 kg (4 lb), so the total equipment load must remain within the applicable limits for the complete workstation.
DC Supplies Product Note
Before ordering, confirm that your workstation is a compatible TeachWell MDW model and check your laptop's dimensions and weight. For improved ergonomics, Ergotron recommends using a separate keyboard positioned on the keyboard tray rather than relying on the laptop keyboard alone.
