3. Setup and Installation
3.1. Before You Begin
Verify that all parts are present and undamaged. Refer to the included hardware list. You will need the following tools (not included): stud finder, level, drill, various drill bits (10mm recommended for masonry), socket wrench, Phillips head screwdriver, and a pencil.
3.2. Check VESA Compatibility
Before mounting, measure the horizontal and vertical distance between the mounting holes on the back of your TV. This mount supports VESA patterns from 100x100mm up to 400x400mm.
Image: This diagram shows different VESA mounting patterns (100x100, 200x100, 200x200, 200x300, 250x400, 200x400, 300x300, 300x400, 400x400) that are compatible with the Invision HDTV-L TV wall mount.
3.3. Attaching TV Brackets to Your TV
- Carefully place your TV face down on a soft, clean surface.
- Identify the correct diameter and length of screws (M4, M5, M6, or M8) that fit your TV's mounting holes. Use the provided spacers if necessary to ensure the screws do not bottom out or protrude too far.
- Attach the two vertical TV brackets to the back of your TV using the selected screws and washers. Ensure they are securely fastened.

3.4. Mounting the Wall Plate
- For Wood Stud Walls: Use a stud finder to locate the center of two adjacent wood studs. Mark the desired height for the top of your TV. Position the wall plate against the wall, ensuring it is level, and mark the drilling points. Drill pilot holes (approximately 5mm diameter) into the center of the studs. Secure the wall plate using the provided lag bolts and washers.
- For Concrete/Brick Walls: Mark the desired height and drilling points for the wall plate. Use a 10mm masonry drill bit to drill holes to the specified depth. Insert the concrete anchors flush with the wall surface. Position the wall plate, ensure it is level, and secure it using the provided lag bolts and washers.

3.5. Hanging the TV
- With assistance, carefully lift the TV with the attached brackets and hook the brackets onto the wall plate.
- Ensure the TV is securely seated on the wall plate.
- Locate the locking screws at the bottom of the TV brackets and tighten them to secure the TV to the wall plate, preventing accidental dislodgement.

5. Maintenance
- Regular Checks: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight and secure.
- Cleaning: Clean the mount with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
- Lubrication: The articulating joints are designed for smooth operation and generally do not require lubrication. If movement becomes stiff, contact customer support.
6. Troubleshooting
- TV Not Level: If the TV appears unlevel after installation, use the built-in leveling adjustment feature (if applicable) or slightly loosen the mounting screws on the TV brackets, adjust, and re-tighten.
- Mount Feels Loose: Re-check all wall anchors and TV attachment screws. Ensure they are tightened to the appropriate torque. Do not overtighten.
- Difficulty Moving Arm/Tilt: Check for any obstructions. Ensure no cables are snagged. The tool-free tilt mechanism should operate smoothly; if it's too stiff or too loose, check the tension adjustment (if available) or contact support.
