   • Use a level to ensure the marks are perfectly horizontal.
   • Drill pilot holes according to the wall type and hardware being used.
   • Secure the wall plate assembly to the wall using the appropriate lag bolts and washers. Tighten all bolts firmly.
3. Hang TV on Wall Plate:
   • With assistance, carefully lift the TV (with brackets attached) and hook the TV brackets onto the wall plate.
   • Ensure the TV is securely seated on the wall plate.
   • Engage the safety locking screws or mechanisms on the TV brackets to prevent accidental dislodgement.
