Setup and Installation

1. Pre-Installation Checks

• TV Compatibility: Verify your TV's VESA mounting pattern. This mount supports 100x100mm, 200x100mm, and 200x200mm.
• TV Weight: Ensure your TV's weight does not exceed the mount's maximum load capacity of 88lbs (40kg).
• Wall Type: Identify your wall type (wood stud, concrete, brick). Different anchors are required for each.
• Tools Required: Stud finder, drill, level, measuring tape, pencil, Phillips head screwdriver.

2. Attaching the TV Plate to Your TV

1. Carefully place your TV face down on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches.
2. Align the detachable TV mounting plate with the VESA holes on the back of your TV.
3. Select the appropriate screws (M4, M5, M6, or M8) and spacers (if needed for recessed holes) from the provided hardware kit.
4. Secure the TV plate to the TV using a Phillips head screwdriver. Do not overtighten.

3. Mounting the Wall Plate

1. Locate Studs (for wood stud walls): Use a stud finder to locate the center of two adjacent wood studs. Mark the drilling locations. For concrete/brick walls, mark desired locations.
2. Drill Pilot Holes: Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. Ensure the drill bit size matches the recommended size for your chosen anchors (e.g., 3/16 inch for lag bolts into studs).
3. Attach Wall Plate: Align the wall plate with the drilled holes. Secure it to the wall using the provided lag bolts (for wood studs) or concrete anchors (for concrete/brick). Ensure the wall plate is perfectly level using a spirit level.
4. Optional: Detach Arm for Easier Installation: For single-person installation, the articulating arm can be temporarily detached from the wall plate by unscrewing the main pivot bolts. Reattach after the wall plate is securely mounted.

4. Hanging the TV

1. With the TV plate attached to your TV, carefully lift the TV and hook the TV plate onto the wall mount's arm. The design allows for temporary hanging before final securing.
2. Once hooked, secure the TV plate to the arm using the designated screws or locking mechanism. Ensure it is firmly attached and cannot be accidentally dislodged.

Operating the Mount

Your Invision TV wall mount offers flexible adjustments for optimal viewing.

Articulating Arm Movement

The cantilever arm extends up to an impressive 500mm (19.7 inches) from the wall, allowing you to pull your TV out for better viewing or push it back for a slim profile. It can maneuver left and right over 180 degrees, providing wide versatility.

Tilt Adjustment

The mount features a tool-free tilting action, allowing you to tilt your TV +10 degrees down and -2 degrees up. To adjust the tilt, simply loosen the two bolts on each side of the TV plate, adjust to the desired angle, and then re-tighten the bolts to secure the position. This mechanism is designed for ease of use and stability.

Cable Management

Integrated cable management clips are provided on the articulating arms. Route your TV and power cables through these clips to maintain a tidy and organized appearance. Ensure enough slack is left in the cables to allow for full range of motion of the arm without strain.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and safe operation of your Invision TV wall mount, periodic maintenance is recommended:

• Regular Checks: Periodically inspect all mounting bolts and screws to ensure they remain tight. Vibrations or frequent adjustments can sometimes cause minor loosening over time.
• Cleaning: Clean the mount's surface with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
• Joint Movement: The articulating joints are designed to be firm for stability. If movement becomes excessively stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the pivot points, though this is rarely necessary. Avoid oil-based lubricants.
• Cable Management: Ensure cables are not pinched or strained during movement. Re-route if necessary.

Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter.

Issue: TV appears unlevel after installation.

Solution: The TV mounting plate often has a slight rotational adjustment feature. Loosen the securing bolts on the TV plate, adjust the TV to be level, and then re-tighten the bolts firmly. Ensure the wall plate itself was installed level initially.

Issue: Articulating arm is too stiff or too loose.

Solution: The arm joints are factory-set for optimal tension. If too stiff, ensure no cables are impeding movement. If too loose, check the main pivot bolts connecting the arm sections and the wall plate; they may require slight tightening with the provided wrench. Avoid overtightening, which can restrict movement.

Issue: Cables are not staying within the cable management clips.

Solution: Ensure you have left sufficient slack in the cables to accommodate the full range of motion of the articulating arm. If too many cables are routed through one clip, distribute them or use additional cable ties if necessary.

Issue: Difficulty drilling into wall studs or concrete.

Solution: Ensure you are using the correct drill bit size and type for your wall material. For wood studs, a standard wood drill bit is sufficient. For concrete or brick, a masonry drill bit and hammer drill are required. Always pre-drill pilot holes to the recommended depth.
