Setup and Installation
Before beginning installation, ensure you have all necessary tools (e.g., drill, stud finder, screwdriver, wrench) and that your wall type is suitable for mounting. This mount is designed for concrete, brick, or wood stud walls.
Step 1: Prepare the Wall Plate
Using the provided mounting template, mark the desired location for the wall plate on your wall. Ensure the location is level using the included bubble level. Drill pilot holes according to the template and your wall type. Secure the wall plate to the wall using the appropriate hardware from the kit.
Step 2: Attach TV Brackets
Identify the correct screws and spacers from the hardware kit that fit your TV's VESA mounting holes. Attach the two vertical TV brackets to the back of your television. Ensure they are securely fastened and centered.
Step 3: Mount TV to Wall Plate
Carefully lift the television with the attached brackets and hook them onto the wall plate. Secure the TV to the wall plate using the locking mechanisms or screws as indicated in the detailed instructions provided with the physical product.

Operating Instructions
The Monoprice Ultra-Slim Full-Motion mount offers versatile adjustments for optimal viewing.
Adjusting Extension and Retraction
Gently pull or push the television to extend it up to 9.8 inches from the wall or retract it to a minimum distance of 0.77 inches. Ensure smooth movement and avoid sudden forceful actions.

Adjusting Tilt
The mount allows for upward or downward tilt to reduce glare and optimize viewing angles. Loosen the tilt adjustment knobs or bolts (if applicable), adjust the screen to the desired angle, and then securely tighten them. The maximum tilt angle is approximately 15 degrees.

Adjusting Swivel
The mount can swivel up to 60 degrees left or right, depending on your TV size and wall clearance. Gently pivot the television to align it with your seating position. Ensure the movement is smooth and does not strain the mount or cables.
Level Rotation Adjustment
The mount includes a level rotation adjustment to ensure your display remains perfectly horizontal. If your TV appears unlevel after installation or adjustment, use the designated mechanism to fine-tune its horizontal position.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the mount. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
- Periodic Checks: Periodically inspect all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight and secure. Over time, vibrations or frequent adjustments can cause fasteners to loosen.
- Lubrication: If the articulating arms become stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the moving joints. Do not use oil-based lubricants.
Troubleshooting
TV is not level
Check the level rotation adjustment feature of the mount. Ensure the wall plate itself was installed level. If necessary, adjust the level rotation mechanism or re-level the wall plate.
Mount is difficult to move or adjust
Ensure all adjustment knobs or bolts are sufficiently loosened before attempting to move the TV. Check for any obstructions. If stiffness persists, apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the moving joints.
TV feels unstable or loose
Immediately remove the TV from the mount if it feels unstable. Re-check all mounting hardware, including the wall plate fasteners and the TV bracket screws, to ensure they are securely tightened. Verify that the TV's weight and VESA pattern are within the mount's specifications.
Cables are pinched or damaged
Ensure all cables are routed through the integrated cable management system. Avoid over-tightening cable ties. When adjusting the TV's position, always check that cables have sufficient slack and are not being pinched.
