5. Setup and Installation
5.1 Determine TV Mounting Height
Consider your viewing position and desired eye level. Typically, the center of the TV should be at eye level when seated.
5.2 Attach TV Brackets to Television
- Carefully place your TV face down on a soft, clean surface to prevent screen damage.
- Identify the VESA mounting holes on the back of your TV.
- Select the appropriate screws, washers, and spacers from the hardware kit that fit your TV's VESA pattern. Refer to your TV's manual for specific screw length requirements.
- Attach the two TV brackets to the back of your TV, ensuring they are vertically aligned and securely fastened. Do not overtighten.
5.3 Mount Wall Plate to Wall
- Hold the wall plate against the wall at your desired mounting height. Use the integrated spirit level to ensure it is perfectly horizontal.
- Mark the drilling locations through the holes on the wall plate with a pencil.
- Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. The size of the drill bit will depend on your wall type (e.g., wood stud, concrete, brick) and the anchors provided.
- Insert the appropriate wall anchors into the drilled holes.
- Align the wall plate with the anchors and secure it to the wall using the provided screws. Ensure the wall plate is firmly attached and level.

7. Maintenance

- Clean the mount with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Inspect the wall and mount for any signs of wear, damage, or instability.
8. Troubleshooting
- TV not level: Ensure the wall plate was installed perfectly level using the integrated spirit level. If not, adjust the wall plate.
- Difficulty engaging locking mechanism: Ensure the TV brackets are properly seated on the wall plate. The TV should be lowered completely until the mechanism clicks.
- TV feels unstable: Immediately remove the TV. Re-check all wall plate and TV bracket connections. Ensure the wall structure is adequate and anchors are correctly installed. Do not re-mount until stability is confirmed.
