- Tilt Adjustment: Loosen the tilt knobs on the side of the TV brackets. Adjust the screen to your desired vertical angle (-15° to +5°) and retighten the knobs to secure.
- Swivel Adjustment: Gently push or pull the TV to swivel it horizontally up to +/-45°. The swivel range may vary based on your TV's size and its distance from the wall.
- Level Adjustment: If the TV appears slightly unlevel after installation, use the +/-3° level adjustment feature. This typically involves loosening specific screws on the TV brackets, adjusting the level, and then retightening.
- Extension/Retraction: Pull the TV gently away from the wall to extend it up to 390mm (15.4 inches) or push it back towards the wall to retract it to 70mm (2.8 inches).
Always make adjustments smoothly and avoid excessive force. Ensure all knobs and screws are tightened after adjustment to maintain the desired position.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your TV wall mount.
- Cleaning: Wipe the mount with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the finish.
- Periodic Checks: Every few months, check all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight. Over time, vibrations or repeated adjustments can cause fasteners to loosen.
- Lubrication: If the swivel or extension mechanisms become stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the moving parts. Avoid oil-based lubricants that can attract dust.
- Weight Limit: Never exceed the maximum weight capacity of 60 kg (132 lbs).
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| TV is not level. | Wall plate or TV brackets are not perfectly level. | Use the +/-3° level adjustment feature. Loosen the relevant screws, adjust, and retighten. |
| TV sags or feels unstable. | Screws are loose, or TV exceeds weight capacity. | Check and tighten all mounting screws. Ensure TV weight is within the 60 kg limit. Re-evaluate wall type and installation. |
| Mount is difficult to move (swivel/extend). | Joints are stiff or need lubrication. | Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the moving joints. |
| TV does not fit the mount. | Incorrect VESA pattern or TV size/weight. | Verify your TV's VESA pattern, size, and weight against the mount's specifications (200x100mm to 600x400mm VESA, 37-82 inches, max 60kg). |
