your reading comfort

Avid readers, rehab patients, business professionals,
students and the physically disabled are among the many
finding these articulating ergonomic accessories so
useful. Easily adjust the height and position the arm
into the most comfortable position for your reading;
then, strap your book, magazine or report onto the black
book-board. Specially engineered steel page holders
with rubber tips maintain your page placement, yet allow
you to turn pages easily when needed. An optional clip-on
LED light is available separately.
There are two models of book holders that can provide
solutions for different placements because of their
adjustable height, arm positioning and arm extension.
The floor stand model has a sturdy cast iron base that
rides on four 2" casters. It weighs 35 lbs. Ideal as
a book holder for reading in bed, or in loungers, wheelchairs,
set near your stationary exercise equipment or use it
next to your desk as a copyholder. Meanwhile the
desk model (see photo below) can be clamped onto desks
or tables that have overhanging surfaces measuring up
to 2" thick.

Whether used just for added comfort or specifically
used to ease pain or physical limitations, these sturdy
and limber stands are innovative and popular accessories
with multiple positioning. The desk clamp model can
also be used in offices as durable copyholders.
The Latin root meaning of
levo is "to raise, lift, ease, or relieve" and that's
what these models are designed to do. Height is easily
adjusted by loosening one of two knobs on the steel
telescoping pole. The pole can be turned and the unit
moved and adjusted to provide an articulated reach for
comfortable viewing distance. Measured from the pole
to the end of the book-board, the floor model's arm
extends 30"L. The desk clamp model has a 22-1/2"L arm
extension, measured from the pole to the middle of the
book-board.
The pole connects with a
book-board made of non-glare injection molded ABS. The
spin joint in the middle of the book-board allows the
book to be positioned for the exact horizontal (or vertical)
placement desired. Two strong polymer nylon straps are
used to secure your book and specially designed steel
rods hold pages in place while also allowing easy tuning
of page from one side to the other. Pages are easily
slipped free of one side's containment rod and then
slipped beneath the other side. Angle/tilt/rotate the
board.
The Desk model boasts a
22-1/2"L arm extension. It provides a 4" minimum height
setting up to an 8" maximum height, measured from distance
off the desk's work surface to the bottom of the bookboard.
For information about its optional clip-on Gig Light,

It also can swing from left or right so you can set

Adding a Gig Light to your Bookholder illuminates your
page and also allows you to control your close-at-hand
lighting easier. This 1/2 lb. lamp produces bright,
focused luminescence with an LED bulb. The standard
model is powered using four AA batteries (included);
or you can order this lamp with an AC adapter, which
allows it to be plugged into a wall outlet.
The plastic casing clips
onto your stand's book board, yet can be folded down
to 6-3/4" x 2-3/4" x 1-3/4" and placed into its pouch.
When installed, the lamp can be moved up and down, and
forward and back. This is a perfect accessory for your
Levo Bookholder stand, providing you a dependable source
of light for nighttime reading.
