4. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps carefully to ensure a secure and stable installation of your TV wall mount.

4.1 Pre-Installation Checklist

• Gather Tools: You will need a drill, stud finder (for wood studs), pencil, measuring tape, Phillips head screwdriver, and a hammer (for concrete anchors).
• Determine Mounting Location: Choose a location on your wall that is structurally sound and at the desired viewing height.
• Identify Wall Type: Confirm if your wall is wood stud, solid concrete, or brick. Different hardware and procedures apply.

4.2 Mounting the Wall Plate

1. Mark Pilot Holes: Hold the wall plate against the wall at the desired height. Use the integrated level to ensure it is perfectly horizontal. Mark the pilot hole locations with a pencil.
2. Drill Pilot Holes:
   • For Wood Studs: Drill pilot holes into the center of the studs using a 5/32" (4mm) drill bit to a depth of 2.2" (55mm).
   • For Solid Concrete/Brick: Drill pilot holes using a 3/8" (10mm) drill bit to a depth of 2.4" (60mm). Insert concrete anchors into the holes, tapping gently with a hammer if necessary until flush with the wall surface.
3. Attach Wall Plate: Align the wall plate with the drilled holes. Secure it to the wall using the lag bolts and washers provided in the hardware kit. Tighten all bolts firmly, but do not overtighten.

4.3 Attaching TV Brackets to TV

1. Identify VESA Pattern: Locate the four mounting holes on the back of your TV. Measure the horizontal and vertical distance between these holes to determine your TV's VESA pattern.
2. Select TV Screws: Choose the appropriate diameter and length of screws from the hardware kit that fit your TV's mounting holes. Use spacers if the TV back is uneven or if the screws are too long.
3. Attach Brackets: Carefully attach the two vertical TV brackets to the back of your TV using the selected screws and washers. Ensure the hooks on the brackets are facing upwards and the pull-straps are accessible at the bottom.

4.4 Mounting TV to Wall Plate

1. Lift TV: With assistance, carefully lift the TV with the attached brackets.
2. Hook onto Wall Plate: Align the hooks on the TV brackets with the top edge of the wall plate. Gently lower the TV until the hooks engage securely with the wall plate.
3. Secure TV: Pull the release straps at the bottom of the TV brackets to unlock the safety mechanism. Push the bottom of the TV towards the wall until the safety locks click into place, securing the TV to the wall plate. Ensure both locks are engaged.
