Setup and Installation
Before beginning installation, ensure you have all components and tools as listed in the included hardware pack. It is crucial to verify your TV's size, weight, and VESA mounting pattern to ensure compatibility with this mount. The APPIMF7-E is designed for installation on brick walls, solid concrete walls, or wood studs.
Pre-Installation Checklist:
- Confirm TV weight is within 35kg limit.
- Verify VESA pattern matches one of the supported sizes (75x75mm to 400x400mm).
- Identify your wall type (brick, concrete, or wood stud) to use appropriate anchors.
- Gather necessary tools (drill, level, stud finder if applicable, screwdriver).
Installation Steps:
- Attach Brackets to TV: Secure the TV brackets to the back of your television using the provided screws and spacers. Ensure they are centered and firmly attached.
- Mount Wall Plate: Mark the desired mounting height on your wall. Use a level to ensure the wall plate is perfectly horizontal. Drill pilot holes and secure the wall plate using the appropriate anchors and screws for your wall type.
- Hang TV: Carefully lift the TV and hook the attached brackets onto the wall plate. Ensure the TV is securely seated on the mount.
- Secure TV: Tighten any safety screws or locking mechanisms to prevent accidental dislodgement.

Operating Instructions
Once installed, the Alphamount TV wall mount allows for easy adjustment to optimize your viewing experience.
- Tilting: Gently push the top or bottom of your TV to adjust the vertical tilt angle. The mount supports 5° upward tilt and 15° downward tilt to reduce glare and improve viewing from different heights.
- Swiveling: Carefully pull the TV away from the wall and rotate it horizontally. The mount allows for a 90° left or right swivel, providing flexibility to view from adjacent rooms or different seating arrangements.
- Extending/Retracting: Pull the TV straight out from the wall to extend it up to 431.8mm. Push it back towards the wall to retract it to a minimum distance of 60mm. This feature is useful for accessing cables or achieving a flush look.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and safe operation of your Alphamount TV wall mount, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Regular Inspection: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight. Over time, vibrations or frequent adjustments may cause them to loosen.
- Cleaning: Wipe the mount with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the finish.
- Lubrication: If the arm joints become stiff over time, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the moving parts to restore smooth operation.
- Weight Limit Adherence: Never exceed the maximum weight capacity of 35kg. Overloading can compromise the mount's integrity and lead to damage or injury.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your TV wall mount, refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| TV is not level | Wall plate not level during installation; TV not properly seated. | Re-check wall plate level and adjust if necessary. Ensure TV brackets are fully engaged with the wall plate. |
| Mount feels loose or wobbly | Mounting screws are loose; incorrect anchors used for wall type. | Tighten all mounting screws. If problem persists, re-evaluate wall type and consider using stronger anchors or professional installation. |
| Difficulty adjusting tilt or swivel | Joints are stiff; excessive friction. | Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the moving joints. Ensure no cables are obstructing movement. |
| TV appears too far from wall when retracted | Cables or TV design prevents full retraction. | Ensure cables are neatly managed and not interfering with the mount's retraction. Check if TV's rear design (e.g., curved back) limits flush positioning. |
If these solutions do not resolve the issue, please contact Alphamount customer support for further assistance.
