Mount your Oztent Lock-On Device Holder in seconds. Follow this step-by-step guide to attach it securely, avoid common mistakes, and keep your phone or tablet stable at camp.

Quick answer

Mount the Oztent Lock-On Device Holder by aligning its Lock-On connector with the matching rail on your Oztent chair, then pressing firmly until it clicks into place. No tools are needed, and you can reposition it in seconds.

Why the Lock-On system changes setup

The Oztent Positive Lock System uses a simple slide-and-click design, so you can attach, swap, and refine accessories without straps or clamps. That means your device holder goes on the same way every time, and you can move it as your camp setup changes.

When the holder is not the right fit

This holder is designed for Oztent chairs with the Lock-On rail. If your chair lacks that rail, the holder will not attach securely, and forcing it could damage the connector. Check your chair model before buying.

Step-by-step mounting instructions

  1. Identify the Lock-On rail on your chair: Locate the molded rail on your Oztent chair that matches the holder's connector. It is usually on the armrest or side frame. If you cannot find a rail, your chair may not be Lock-On compatible—do not force the holder.
  2. Align the holder with the rail: Hold the device holder so its Lock-On connector lines up with the rail's channel. The holder should sit flush against the rail. Check that the connector is not tilted; a misaligned start can make the holder feel stuck.
  3. Slide and press until it clicks: Push the holder along the rail until you feel or hear a click. Give it a gentle tug to confirm it is locked. A firm click means it is secure; if it slides freely, it is not fully engaged.
  4. Adjust the angle for viewing: Once mounted, tilt the holder to your preferred viewing angle. Most Lock-On accessories allow some rotation for comfort. Avoid forcing the angle past its natural stop; that can stress the connector.
  5. Place your device and test stability: Set your phone or tablet in the holder and press lightly to ensure it stays put. Adjust the position if needed. If the device feels loose, recheck that the holder is fully clicked onto the rail.
