  • Four (4) Flat Washers: Distribute the load of the fastener, preventing damage to the TV's mounting holes and ensuring a secure fit.
  • Eight (8) Nylon Spacers: Offer additional length configurations and create space for cable management behind the TV.

3. Installation Instructions

Before proceeding, always consult your television's instruction manual and your wall mount's instruction manual for specific guidance and safety warnings. Ensure you have the correct tools for installation.

  1. Identify Mounting Holes: Locate the VESA mounting holes on the back of your Samsung UN43N5020 TV.
  2. Select Spacers (if needed): Determine if spacers are required to achieve the correct screw length or to create space for cables. The kit includes two sizes of nylon spacers for flexibility.
  3. Assemble Hardware: For each mounting point, place a flat washer onto a screw, followed by a split lock washer. If using spacers, place them after the washers.

  5. Attach Mount Brackets: Align the TV mount brackets with the VESA mounting holes on the TV. Insert the assembled screws through the mount brackets and into the TV's mounting holes.
  6. Secure Screws: Hand-tighten each screw initially to ensure proper alignment. Then, use a screwdriver to tighten them securely. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the TV or the screws. The split lock washers will provide resistance against loosening.
  7. Final Check: Once all screws are tightened, gently attempt to move the mount brackets to ensure they are firmly secured to the TV.

4. Important Considerations

  • Compatibility: These screws are specifically designed for the Samsung UN43N5020 (UN43N5020AFXZA) TV model. Using them with incompatible TVs may result in an insecure installation or damage.
  • VESA Standard: The metric screws are compatible with the industry-standard M8 VESA mounting bracket pattern. Ensure your wall mount also adheres to VESA standards.
  • Screw Length: The included spacers allow for adjustment of the effective screw length. Always ensure the screw penetrates sufficiently into the TV's mounting hole without bottoming out or being too short.
  • Safety: Always ensure the wall mount itself is properly installed into wall studs or appropriate anchors capable of supporting the weight of your TV. If unsure, consult a professional installer.
