1. Wall Type Compatibility
This TV mount is designed for installation on:

- Solid Concrete Walls (anchors included)
- Solid Brick Walls (anchors included)
DO NOT MOUNT ON DRYWALL ALONE. Drywall is not strong enough to support the weight of the TV and mount.

2. VESA Compatibility
Ensure your TV's VESA mounting pattern falls within the supported range of this mount.
- Maximum VESA Pattern: 600mm x 400mm (Horizontal x Vertical)
- Minimum VESA Pattern: 100mm x 100mm
For TVs with VESA patterns below 100x200mm, the extension arms of the mount may not be required. Refer to the detailed manual for specific assembly configurations.

3. General Installation Steps (Summary)
- Locate Studs/Mark Drilling Points: Use a stud finder to locate wood studs or mark drilling points on concrete/brick walls.
- Mount Wall Plate: Secure the wall plate to the wall using the appropriate lag bolts (for wood studs) or anchors and screws (for concrete/brick). Use the included bubble level to ensure it is perfectly horizontal.
- Attach TV Brackets: Attach the vertical TV brackets to the back of your television using the correct VESA screws and spacers.
- Hang TV: Carefully lift the TV and hook the TV brackets onto the wall plate. Ensure the safety locks engage to secure the TV.
- Adjust: Make final adjustments for tilt, swivel, and leveling as described in the Operating Instructions section.

Operating Instructions (Adjustments)
Once installed, your WHYFONE TV wall mount offers a range of adjustments to optimize your viewing experience.
1. Extension and Retraction
Gently pull or push the TV screen to extend the arm up to 25.6 inches from the wall or retract it to a slim 2.5-inch profile. This allows for flexible positioning and space-saving when not in use.

2. Swivel Adjustment
The mount allows for a ±90° swivel at each of its three joints, providing a total of 180 degrees of motion. This enables you to angle your TV towards different viewing areas within a room, or even between adjacent rooms if installed centrally.
3. Tilt Adjustment
Adjust the vertical viewing angle by tilting the TV +5° upwards or -10° downwards. This helps reduce glare and optimize viewing from different heights.
4. Level Adjustment
Correct any slight horizontal misalignment by adjusting the level of the TV ±3°. This ensures your screen is perfectly straight.

Cable Management
Utilize the included velcro cable ties to neatly route and secure cables along the mount's arms, preventing tangles and maintaining a clean appearance.
Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and safe operation of your WHYFONE TV Wall Mount, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe the mount with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Check Connections: Periodically inspect all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight and secure. Re-tighten if necessary.
- Lubrication: If the articulating joints become stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the pivot points to restore smooth movement.
- Weight Limit: Never exceed the maximum weight capacity of 77 lbs (35 kg).
Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your TV wall mount, refer to the common problems and solutions below:
- TV is not level: Use the ±3° level adjustment feature to correct the horizontal alignment. Ensure the wall plate was installed level initially.
- Mount feels unstable: Double-check all wall mounting bolts and TV bracket screws for tightness. Ensure the mount is installed on a compatible wall type (wood stud, concrete, or brick) and not drywall alone. Verify the TV weight is within the 77 lbs limit.
- Arm movement is stiff: Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the pivot points of the articulating arms. Ensure no cables are obstructing the movement.
- TV does not stay tilted: Check the tilt adjustment bolts on the TV plate and tighten them sufficiently to hold the desired angle.
- Missing parts: Do not proceed with installation. Contact WHYFONE customer support immediately for replacement parts.
