4. Setup and Installation

Follow these steps carefully to install your TV wall mount:

Step 1: Attach TV Brackets to Your TV

1. Carefully place your TV face-down on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches.
2. Identify the VESA mounting holes on the back of your TV.
3. Select the appropriate screws, washers, and spacers from the provided hardware kit that fit your TV's VESA pattern.
4. Attach the left and right TV brackets to the back of your TV, ensuring they are securely fastened. The hooks on the brackets should face upwards.

Step 2: Locate Mounting Position on Wall

1. Determine the desired height for your TV.
2. Use a stud finder to locate wood studs in your wall. Mark the edges and center of the studs. For brick or concrete walls, ensure you have the correct anchors.
3. Hold the wall plate against the wall at your desired height and use the built-in level to ensure it is perfectly horizontal. Mark the pilot hole locations.

Step 3: Mount Wall Plate to Wall

1. Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. The size of the drill bit will depend on your wall type (wood, brick, concrete).
2. If installing into concrete or brick, insert the appropriate wall anchors into the pilot holes.
3. Align the wall plate with the pilot holes and secure it to the wall using the provided lag bolts. Tighten all bolts firmly.

Step 4: Hang TV on Wall Plate

1. With assistance, carefully lift the TV and hook the attached TV brackets onto the wall plate.
2. Ensure both TV brackets are properly seated and engaged with the wall plate. The automatic click-in spring lock will snap into place for a secure hold.
