4. Setup and Installation
The PERLESMITH TV wall mount is designed for quick and easy installation. Follow these three simple steps:
- Step 1: Attach the TV Plate and Extension Brackets to Your TV
Carefully place your TV face down on a soft, clean surface. Attach the TV plate and any necessary extension brackets to the back of your television using the appropriate screws and spacers from the provided hardware kit. Ensure all connections are secure. - Step 2: Install the Wall Plate
Determine the desired mounting height on your wall. Use the provided drilling template and bubble level to mark the drilling locations. Drill the pilot holes into your concrete, brick, or wood stud wall. Securely attach the wall plate to the wall using the appropriate anchors and screws. Ensure the wall plate is level and firmly fixed. - Step 3: Hang the TV on the Wall Mount
With assistance, carefully lift your TV and hook the TV plate onto the wall plate. Ensure the TV is securely seated on the mount. Tighten any safety screws or locking mechanisms to prevent accidental dislodgement.

5. Operating the Mount
Once installed, your PERLESMITH Full Motion TV Wall Mount offers flexible viewing options:
- Tilting: Adjust the screen vertically from +10° (upwards) to -15° (downwards) to reduce glare and find the perfect viewing angle.
- Swiveling: Pivot the TV horizontally up to +/- 45° to direct the screen towards your viewing area, whether from the sofa or dining table. The maximum swivel angle may vary depending on your TV's size.
- Extending and Retracting: Pull the TV out from the wall up to 403 mm (15.8 inches) or push it back to a minimum distance of 87 mm (3.4 inches) to save space.
- Level Adjustment: Fine-tune the TV's horizontal level by +/- 3° after installation to ensure a perfectly straight display.

6. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and safe operation of your TV wall mount, perform the following maintenance checks periodically:
- Check Connections: Regularly inspect all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight and secure. Retighten if necessary.
- Clean Surface: Wipe the mount with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Lubrication: If the articulating arms become stiff over time, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the pivot points.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your PERLESMITH TV wall mount, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- TV is not level after installation: Use the +/- 3° level adjustment feature to fine-tune the horizontal alignment. If the issue persists, re-check the wall plate installation for levelness.
- Mount feels loose or wobbly: Immediately remove the TV from the mount. Re-check all wall plate and TV bracket connections. Ensure all screws are tightened to the recommended torque. Verify the wall structure is sound and the correct anchors were used.
- Difficulty moving the TV (tilting/swiveling): Check for any obstructions. Ensure no cables are snagged. If the movement is stiff, apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the joints. Do not force movement.
- Missing parts: If any parts are missing from your package, do not proceed with installation. Contact PERLESMITH customer support for assistance.
