Step 5.2: Attach TV Brackets to TV

3. Select the appropriate screws, washers, and spacers from the hardware kit that fit your TV's mounting holes.
4. Attach the two vertical TV brackets to the back of your TV, ensuring they are centered and level. Do not overtighten.

Step 5.3: Mark and Drill Pilot Holes on Wall

1. Determine the desired height for your TV. Use a pencil to mark the center of where the wall plate will be mounted.
2. For wood stud installation: Use a stud finder to locate the edges of the wood studs. Mark the center of the studs. The wall plate must be mounted to at least two wood studs.
3. For concrete/brick wall installation: Mark the desired drill points.
4. Hold the wall plate against the wall, aligning it with your marks, and use a level to ensure it is perfectly horizontal. Mark the drill points through the wall plate holes.
5. Drill pilot holes at the marked locations using the appropriate drill bit size for your wall type and chosen hardware.

Step 5.4: Mount Wall Plate to Wall

1. Align the wall plate with the drilled pilot holes.
2. Insert the appropriate wall anchors (if using for concrete/brick) and then secure the wall plate to the wall using the lag bolts and washers.
3. Tighten all bolts firmly, but do not overtighten.

Step 5.5: Hang TV on Wall Plate

1. With assistance, carefully lift the TV with the attached brackets.
2. Hook the TV brackets onto the top edge of the wall plate.
3. Gently lower the TV until the brackets are fully seated on the wall plate.
4. Engage the safety locking mechanisms on the bottom of the TV brackets to secure the TV to the wall plate. Refer to the specific locking mechanism design on your mount.

3. Use a level tool to verify the TV's horizontal position.
