Step 2: Attach Brackets to TV

1. Lay your TV face down on a soft, clean surface to prevent screen damage.
2. Identify the VESA mounting holes on the back of your TV.
3. Select the correct diameter and length screws from the hardware kit that fit your TV's mounting holes. Use washers and spacers if necessary to ensure a snug fit without overtightening.
4. Attach the two TV brackets to the back of your TV, ensuring they are oriented correctly (hooks facing downwards) and are securely fastened.

Step 3: Attach TV to Wall Plate

1. With assistance, carefully lift the TV.
2. Align the hooks on the TV brackets with the top edge of the wall plate.
3. Gently lower the TV, allowing the brackets to engage with the wall plate. Ensure both brackets are securely seated on the wall plate.
4. Locate the safety screws on the bottom of the TV brackets. Tighten these screws to lock the TV to the wall plate, preventing accidental dislodgement.

5. Operation (Tilt Adjustment)

This mount allows for a tilt adjustment of up to 12 degrees to optimize your viewing angle and reduce glare.

• To adjust the tilt, gently push or pull the bottom of the TV to achieve the desired angle. The friction-based mechanism will hold the TV in place.
• Ensure the tilt is adjusted evenly to maintain a level viewing experience.
