Setup and Installation

Tools Required (Not Included): Pencil, Drill, Phillips Head Screwdriver, Level, Stud Finder, Measuring Tape, Hammer (for concrete anchors).

Step 1: Attach TV Brackets to TV

1. Carefully place your TV face-down on a soft, clean surface to prevent screen damage.
2. Identify the VESA mounting holes on the back of your TV.
3. Select the appropriate screws, washers, and spacers from the hardware kit that fit your TV's mounting holes.
4. Attach the two TV bracket arms to the back of your TV, ensuring they are vertically aligned and securely fastened. The hooks on the bracket arms should face downwards.

Step 2: Mount Wall Plate to Wall

1. Determine the desired height for your TV. Hold the wall plate against the wall and mark the top and bottom center points.
2. Use a stud finder to locate two adjacent wooden studs. Mark the center of each stud. The wall plate is designed to span two studs.
3. Position the wall plate against the wall, aligning the mounting holes with the marked stud centers. Use a level to ensure the wall plate is perfectly horizontal.
4. Mark the drill points through the holes on the wall plate.
5. Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. For wood studs, use a smaller drill bit than the lag bolts. For concrete, use a masonry drill bit and insert concrete anchors.
6. Secure the wall plate to the wall using the provided lag bolts and washers. Tighten firmly, but do not overtighten.

Step 3: Hang TV on Wall Plate

1. With assistance, carefully lift the TV with the attached brackets.
2. Align the hooks on the TV bracket arms with the top edge of the wall plate.
3. Gently lower the TV, ensuring the hooks engage securely with the wall plate.
4. Once the TV is hanging, locate the safety screws or locking mechanisms on the bottom of the TV bracket arms. Tighten these to secure the TV to the wall plate and prevent accidental dislodging.
5. Verify that the TV is level and securely mounted.

1. To adjust the tilt, locate the tilt adjustment knobs or bolts on the side of each TV bracket arm.
2. Loosen these knobs/bolts slightly.
3. Carefully tilt the bottom of your TV forward or backward to achieve the desired viewing angle.
4. Once the desired angle is set, firmly tighten the tilt adjustment knobs/bolts to secure the TV in place.
