- Drill bits (appropriate for wall type)
- Stud finder (for wood stud installation)
- Level
- Tape measure
- Socket wrench or adjustable wrench
- Phillips head screwdriver
- Safety glasses
5.2 Pre-Installation Checklist
- Verify your TV's weight and VESA pattern are within the mount's specifications.
- Identify the type of wall you will be mounting to (wood stud, concrete, brick).
- Ensure there are no hidden electrical wires or plumbing in the drilling area.
- Determine the desired height and position for your TV.
5.3 Attaching TV Brackets to TV
- Carefully place your TV face-down on a soft, clean surface to prevent screen damage.
- Identify the VESA mounting holes on the back of your TV.
- Select the appropriate screws, washers, and spacers from the hardware kit that fit your TV's mounting holes. Refer to your TV's manual if unsure.
- Attach the TV brackets (B & C) to the back of your TV using the selected hardware. Ensure the brackets are centered and securely fastened, but do not overtighten.
5.4 Mounting the Wall Plate
5.4.1 Wood Stud Installation
- Use a stud finder to locate the edges and center of two adjacent wood studs. Mark the center of the studs.
- Position the wall plate assembly (A) against the wall at your desired height, ensuring it is level. Mark the drilling locations through the holes on the wall plate that align with the stud centers.
- Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. The size of the drill bit should be slightly smaller than the lag bolts.
- Attach the wall plate assembly to the wall using the lag bolts and washers provided. Tighten securely with a socket wrench, but do not overtighten.
5.4.2 Concrete/Brick Wall Installation
- Position the wall plate assembly (A) against the wall at your desired height, ensuring it is level. Mark the drilling locations through the holes on the wall plate.
- Drill holes at the marked locations using a masonry drill bit. The size of the drill bit should match the diameter of the concrete anchors.
- Insert the concrete anchors into the drilled holes until they are flush with the wall surface.
- Attach the wall plate assembly to the wall using the lag bolts and washers provided, screwing them into the concrete anchors. Tighten securely.

6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Mounting the TV to the Wall Plate
- With assistance, carefully lift the TV with the attached brackets.
- Hook the TV brackets onto the wall plate's arms. Ensure the TV is securely seated on the mount.
- Secure the TV to the mount by tightening the safety screws or locking mechanisms on the bottom of the TV brackets.
- Perform a gentle pull test to ensure the TV is securely attached to the mount and the mount to the wall.
6.2 Adjusting Viewing Angle
- Tilt Adjustment: Loosen the tilt adjustment knobs on the TV brackets, adjust the screen to the desired vertical angle (up to 15 degrees forward or backward), and then re-tighten the knobs.
- Swivel Adjustment: Gently push or pull the TV to swivel the arm left or right for horizontal viewing angle adjustment. The arm can pivot up to 180 degrees.
- Level Adjustment: If the TV is not perfectly level after installation, use the level adjustment feature on the TV plate to fine-tune its horizontal position. This typically involves loosening specific bolts on the TV plate, adjusting, and re-tightening.
