VESA mounting for XZ271U

lesseffective

My understanding is that it's possible to VESA mount this monitor, but it's not clear how to disconnect the stand in the back.  Any help is appreciated.

Acer products use a 100mm x 100mm VESA mount that is secured to the monitor with four M4 screws that are 10mm in length.
Use a tool like in the picture to open all latches. The TPV No. of the tool: BHT 07 5 . Remove the screws to remove the STAND-BASE ASSY. 
Proceed with caution!

I'm confused.

Where exactly did you shove this tool? 

Can you use any other tool other than this one? Such as prying tools and other similar plastic tools that are used when fixing phones and computers etc, 

I love how you have found a solution, however, it's still not clear what's happening here. Do you mind elaborating a bit further on this, please?

Thanks

You can use other similar tools, please take care you do not damage any parts.

Yes but how do you do it ? 

I did not find these latches you speak of. The pictures you posted are not so detailed with arrows showing where i should be putting the tool in.

Could you elaborate please further on how I can do this ?

Thanks

Gently try to pull the 3 latches as shown in this image.

Yeah, I used a teaspoon to pry open the two top bits of plastic at this part (It was quite finicky and I ended up breaking a little piece of the clicky things that hold it there, but it was fine). That reveals the mount underneath which you can unscrew.
