Setup and Installation
Follow these steps carefully for a secure installation.
Step 1: Assemble Wall Plate
Connect the two main sections of the wall plate using the provided screws. Ensure they are securely fastened.
Step 2: Attach Brackets to TV
Select the appropriate bolts, washers, and spacers for your TV's VESA pattern. Attach the TV brackets to the back of your television. Ensure the side of the bracket with the locking mechanism faces outwards. Tighten securely.
Step 3: Attach Wall Plate to Wall
Position the assembled wall plate on your desired wall location. Use the magnetic bubble level to ensure it is perfectly horizontal. Mark the drilling points. For wood studs, drill pilot holes and secure the wall plate using the self-tapping screws. For concrete/brick walls, drill pilot holes, insert anchors, and then secure the wall plate with screws. Do not mount on drywall alone.

Tilt Adjustment
The Suptek MT5082 allows for a tilt adjustment of 0-8 degrees forward.

This feature helps reduce glare and optimize your viewing angle.
