Setup and Installation
Follow these steps carefully to ensure a secure and stable installation of your TV bracket.
Step 1: Determine VESA Compatibility
Before mounting, verify your TV's VESA pattern. This bracket supports VESA 75x75mm and 100x100mm. Measure the horizontal and vertical distance between the mounting holes on the back of your TV.
Figure 2: VESA Compatibility. The image highlights the VESA mounting patterns supported by the bracket: 75x75mm and 100x100mm.
Step 2: Mark Drilling Locations
Hold the wall plate against the desired mounting location on the wall. Use a level to ensure it is straight. Mark the drilling points through the holes on the wall plate.
Step 3: Drill Holes and Secure Wall Plate
Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. Insert the appropriate wall anchors (if required for your wall type). Secure the wall plate to the wall using the provided screws. Ensure it is firmly attached.
Step 4: Attach TV Plate to TV
Attach the TV mounting plate to the back of your television using the appropriate screws from the screw set that match your TV's VESA pattern. Do not overtighten.

Step 5: Mount TV onto Wall Plate
Carefully lift the TV with the attached TV plate and hook it onto the wall plate. Ensure the connection is secure. You may need assistance for this step.

Operating Adjustments
The PureMounts PM-FM10-100 bracket offers flexible viewing options.
- Tilt Adjustment: The screen can be tilted from +3° to -12°. Loosen the tilt adjustment screws on the side of the bracket, adjust to the desired angle, and then retighten the screws to secure the position. This helps eliminate glare.
- Swivel Adjustment: The screen can be swiveled from +25° to -25° (depending on wall distance and screen width). Gently push the screen to the desired left or right angle. The friction mechanism holds the position.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your TV bracket.
- Cleaning: Wipe the bracket with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Inspection: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they are tight and secure. Retighten if necessary.
- Damage: If any part of the bracket appears damaged or worn, discontinue use and contact customer support.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues during or after installation, refer to the following common problems and solutions.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| TV is not level after installation. | Wall plate was not level during installation. | Remove the TV, loosen wall plate screws, adjust with a level, and retighten. |
| Bracket feels loose or unstable. | Screws are not fully tightened or wall anchors are insufficient. | Ensure all wall and TV mounting screws are securely tightened. Verify wall type and use appropriate anchors. Do not exceed weight capacity. |
| Cannot adjust tilt or swivel. | Adjustment screws are too tight or mechanism is stiff. | For tilt, slightly loosen the adjustment screws, adjust, then retighten. For swivel, apply gentle force; if still stiff, check for obstructions. |
