3. Setup and Installation
Before beginning installation, consult your television's instruction manual to determine the correct VESA screw size and length required for mounting. This information is crucial for a secure and proper installation.
- Identify Screw Size: Refer to your TV's manual for the recommended screw diameter (M4, M5, M6, or M8) and length.
- Select Screws and Washers: Locate the corresponding screws from the labeled bags in your ECHOGEAR hardware pack. Use the appropriate washers (M4/M5 or M6/M8) with your selected screws.
- Utilize Spacers (if needed): If your TV has an uneven back, recessed mounting holes, or a curved screen, use the included spacers to create a flat mounting surface and ensure proper screw engagement. Spacers can be combined to achieve the desired depth.
- Attach Mount Brackets: Secure the TV mount brackets to the back of your television using the selected screws, washers, and spacers. Ensure all connections are tight but do not overtighten to avoid damaging the TV or hardware.
- Mount TV to Wall Mount: Follow the instructions provided with your specific wall mount to attach the television securely.

6. Troubleshooting
- Screws do not fit: Double-check your TV's manual for the exact VESA screw specifications. The pack includes a wide range of sizes; ensure you are using the correct diameter (M4, M5, M6, M8) and length.
- TV back is uneven or curved: Use the provided spacers to create a level surface for the mount brackets. Experiment with different spacer combinations to achieve the best fit.
- Screw feels loose or strips: While ECHOGEAR screws are designed to be durable and strip-resistant, ensure you are not overtightening. If a screw feels loose, verify the correct length and consider if a washer or spacer is needed to achieve proper thread engagement.
