1. Check TV Compatibility and Wall Type

Ensure your TV's size (13-42 inches), weight (max 20kg), and VESA pattern (75x75, 100x100, 200x100, 200x200mm) are compatible with this mount. Identify your wall type (wood stud, concrete, or brick) to use the correct hardware.

2. Attach TV Brackets to TV

Carefully place your TV face down on a soft, clean surface. Attach the TV brackets to the back of your TV using the appropriate screws and spacers from the hardware kit. Ensure the brackets are securely fastened and centered.

3. Mount Wall Plate to Wall

Using the provided template, mark the drilling locations on your wall. Drill pilot holes according to the instructions for your specific wall type. Securely fasten the wall plate to the wall using the appropriate anchors and screws. Ensure the wall plate is level and firmly attached.

Operating Instructions

Your PERLESMITH Full Motion TV Wall Mount offers flexible viewing options once installed.

Adjusting Swivel Angle

The mount allows for a swivel of up to 90 degrees left or right. Gently push or pull the TV to achieve your desired viewing angle. This flexibility helps eliminate glare and provides optimal viewing from various positions in the room.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your TV wall mount.

  • Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they are tight and secure.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your TV wall mount, refer to the following common problems and solutions.

  • Mount feels loose: Re-tighten all mounting screws on both the wall plate and the TV brackets. Ensure the wall anchors are properly installed for your wall type.
