5. Installation Guide
Follow these steps carefully for a secure installation. It is recommended to have two people for installation, especially when handling the TV.
5.1 Pre-Installation Checks
- Verify TV Compatibility: Check your TV's weight and VESA mounting pattern. The mount supports TVs from 47-90 inches, up to 200 lbs, and VESA patterns up to 800x400mm. Refer to your TV's manual for VESA information.
- Inspect Wall Type: Determine if your wall is wood stud, solid concrete, or brick. Do not install on drywall alone. For concrete/brick walls, ensure you have the correct anchors (contact MOUNTUP if needed).

5.2 Mounting the Wall Plate
- Mark Drilling Locations: Use the provided drilling template and bubble level to mark the pilot hole locations on your wall. Ensure the template is level.
- Drill Pilot Holes: Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. For wood studs, use a 7/32" (5.5mm) drill bit. For concrete/brick, use a 3/8" (10mm) drill bit and insert concrete anchors.
- Attach Wall Plate: Secure the wall plate to the wall using the provided lag bolts. Tighten them firmly but do not overtighten.

5.3 Attaching Brackets to TV
- Select TV Screws: Choose the correct diameter and length screws that fit your TV's mounting holes. Use washers and spacers as needed to ensure a flush fit and prevent damage to the TV.
- Attach Brackets: Secure the two TV brackets to the back of your television. Ensure they are centered and securely fastened.

5.4 Hanging the TV
- Hang TV: With assistance, carefully lift the TV and hook the attached brackets onto the wall plate. Ensure the TV is seated properly and securely on the mount.
- Secure TV: Engage any safety locks or screws on the brackets to prevent the TV from accidentally disengaging from the wall plate.

6. Operating the Mount (Adjustments)
The MOUNTUP MU0015 offers various adjustments to achieve your desired viewing angle.
6.1 Extension and Retraction
Gently pull or push the TV to extend it up to 24.4 inches from the wall or retract it to a minimum of 3.7 inches. Ensure smooth movement and avoid sudden forceful actions.

6.2 Swivel Adjustment
The TV can be swiveled up to ±45° left or right. This allows for optimal viewing from different seating positions within a room.

6.4 Post-Installation Level Adjustment
After installation, you can make a fine level adjustment of ±1° to ensure your TV is perfectly horizontal. This adjustment is typically done by loosening specific screws on the TV brackets, leveling the TV, and then re-tightening.

7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your TV wall mount.
- Periodic Inspection: Every few months, check all mounting screws and connections to ensure they are still tight and secure.
- Cleaning: Wipe the mount with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Movement Check: Periodically move the TV through its full range of motion (swivel, tilt, extend) to ensure smooth operation.
8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues, refer to the following common solutions:
- TV is not level after installation: Use the post-installation level adjustment feature (refer to Section 6.4) to fine-tune the horizontal alignment.
- Mount movement is stiff: Check for any obstructions or cables that might be impeding movement. Ensure no bolts are overtightened, which could restrict articulation.
- Mount feels unstable: Immediately remove the TV from the mount. Re-check all wall plate and TV bracket connections. Ensure the wall type is appropriate and all lag bolts/anchors are securely fastened. Verify that the TV's weight and VESA pattern are within the mount's specifications.
- Missing parts: If any parts are missing from the package, contact MOUNTUP customer service for assistance.
