Drill holes at the marked positions using an appropriate drill bit for your wall type (e.g., masonry, drywall). If installing into masonry or plasterboard, insert the provided wall plugs flush with the wall surface.

7. Care and Maintenance

- Wipe the mount with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust.
- Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the finish.
- Regularly check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight and secure.
8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Mount feels unstable after installation. | Screws are loose; wall plugs not properly seated; unsuitable wall material. | Ensure all screws are tightened. If wall plugs are loose, re-drill or use larger plugs. If wall material is weak, reinforce or choose a different location. |
| Speaker does not sit correctly in the mount. | Speaker not aligned properly; obstruction. | Remove speaker and re-seat it carefully, ensuring proper alignment with the mount's cradle. Check for any foreign objects. |
| Tilt/swivel mechanism is too loose or too stiff. | Adjustment screws require attention. | For looseness, gently tighten the adjustment screws. For stiffness, ensure no debris is in the mechanism and apply minimal lubricant if necessary (consult manufacturer if unsure). |
