Maintenance and Care
To ensure the longevity and proper function of your Barkan wall mount, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the mount with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the finish.
- Periodic Inspection: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight and secure. Over time, vibrations or adjustments may cause them to loosen.
- Lubrication: The articulating joints are designed for smooth movement. If any stiffness occurs, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the pivot points.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Barkan E140 wall mount, consider the following common solutions:
- Mount feels loose: Re-check all wall mounting screws and TV attachment screws. Ensure they are tightened securely. Do not overtighten.
- Difficulty with movement: Ensure no cables are snagged or obstructing the mount's articulation. If movement is stiff, apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the pivot points.
- Screen is not level: Use the built-in screen leveling mechanism to adjust the horizontal alignment of your screen.
- Mount does not hold weight: Verify that your TV's weight does not exceed the mount's maximum capacity of 33 lbs (15 kg). Also, ensure the wall installation is appropriate for the combined weight.
