4. Operating Instructions and Adjustments
Once your TV is mounted, you can make fine adjustments to ensure perfect alignment and easy access.
4.1. Post-Install Leveling
If your TV appears slightly crooked after installation, you can adjust its level by up to +/- 5 degrees. Locate the leveling screws on the mount and turn them as needed until your TV is perfectly horizontal.
Figure 6: Post-Install Adjustment for leveling and horizontal centering.
4.2. Horizontal Adjustments
The TV can be slid left or right on the wall plate to perfectly center it in your desired viewing area. This is useful for achieving optimal placement even if your wall studs are not perfectly centered.
4.3. Cable Access and TV Removal
The mount features convenient pull strings that allow you to easily access cables behind your TV or to dismount the TV when needed. Simply pull the strings to release the locking mechanism.

5. Maintenance
The ECHOGEAR TV Wall Mount is designed for durability and requires minimal maintenance. Follow these guidelines to ensure its longevity:
- Regular Checks: Periodically inspect all mounting hardware and connections to ensure they remain secure. Tighten any loose screws or bolts.
- Cleaning: Clean the mount with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, which could damage the finish.
- Weight Limits: Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity or TV size specified for this mount.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues during or after installation, refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| TV is not level after installation. | Initial installation was slightly off, or minor settling occurred. | Use the post-install leveling screws to adjust the TV's horizontal alignment (up to +/- 5 degrees). |
| Cannot find wall studs. | Incorrect use of stud finder or wall material is not wood stud. | Re-scan with a reliable stud finder. If no studs are found, consider professional installation or ensure you are mounting to concrete/concrete block with appropriate anchors. |
| TV does not fit the mount. | Incorrect VESA pattern or TV size/weight. | Verify your TV's VESA pattern and weight against the mount's specifications. This mount supports 42-90 inch TVs. |
| Difficulty accessing cables behind TV. | Cables are tightly packed or difficult to reach. | Pull the release strings to temporarily unlatch the TV from the wall plate, providing more space for cable management. |
If the problem persists, please contact ECHOGEAR customer support for further assistance.
