Important Safety Information
WARNING:
Failure to read and understand all instructions provided in this manual can result in serious personal injury, property damage, or voiding of the factory warranty. Improper installation may lead to the television falling, causing severe personal injury or significant property damage. Do not install this product into drywall alone. For concrete or brick walls, ensure proper anchors are used as specified. Always verify the structural integrity of the wall before commencing installation.
CAUTION:
This product is intended for indoor use only. Using this product outdoors could lead to product failure, resulting in personal injury or property damage. Ensure the mounting surface can safely support the combined weight of the television, the mount itself, and all attached hardware and components.

Setup and Installation Guide
Follow these steps carefully to ensure a secure and proper installation of your PERLESMITH TV wall mount.
Step 1: Check Before Purchase/Installation
- Verify Wall Type: This mount is suitable for 16"-24" wood stud walls, solid concrete, or brick walls. Do NOT install into drywall alone.
- Check TV Size: Ensure your TV is between 37 and 82 inches.
- Verify VESA Pattern: Measure the distance between the mounting holes on the back of your TV. The VESA pattern must be between 200x100mm and 600x400mm.
- Locate TV Inputs: Check for any potential cable/input blockage once the mount is installed.
This graphic outlines essential checks before installation, including verifying your wall type, TV size, VESA pattern, and ensuring no cable inputs will be blocked by the mount.
Step 2: Attach TV Brackets to TV
Carefully place your TV face down on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches. Attach the two TV brackets to the back of your TV using the appropriate screws, washers, and spacers from the hardware kit. Ensure the brackets are centered and securely fastened.
This official PERLESMITH video demonstrates the process of attaching the TV brackets to the back of your television, ensuring proper alignment and secure fastening.
Low Profile Design
This image illustrates how the low-profile design of the mount keeps your TV just 1.2 inches from the wall, providing a clean and space-saving installation.
Step 3: Install Wall Plate to Wall
Locate the wood studs using a stud finder. Mark the drilling locations. For wood studs, drill pilot holes. For concrete/brick walls, use a masonry drill bit and insert concrete anchors. Secure the wall plate to the wall using the lag bolts and washers. Use the included bubble level to ensure the mount is perfectly horizontal.
Enhanced Viewing with Tilt
The image highlights the mount's ability to tilt the TV downwards by 7 degrees, which helps in minimizing screen glare and optimizing the viewing experience from various positions.
Step 4: Hang TV on Wall Plate
With assistance, carefully lift the TV and hook the TV brackets onto the wall plate. Ensure both brackets are securely seated on the wall plate. The pull cords should hang freely below the TV.
Step 5: Secure TV to Wall Plate
Pull the release straps (pull cords) downwards to unlock the TV brackets from the wall plate. Push the bottom of the TV towards the wall until the brackets click into place, securely fastening the TV. You can then tuck the pull cords behind the TV for a tidy appearance.
