Setup and Installation

Follow these steps carefully for a secure installation. A detailed installation guide and hardware kit are included with your mount. It is highly recommended to have at least two people for this process.

Step 1: Attach TV Brackets to TV

• Carefully place your TV face down on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches.
• Identify the correct screws and spacers for your TV's VESA mounting holes.
• Attach the vertical TV brackets to the back of your TV using the appropriate screws and washers. Ensure they are securely tightened.
• If your TV's vertical VESA is greater than 400mm, attach the included extension strips to the main brackets.

Step 2: Install the Wall Plate

• Locate the desired mounting position on your wall. Use a stud finder to identify and mark the center of your wood studs. For concrete/brick walls, mark your desired drilling points.
• Use the provided drilling template to mark the precise locations for drilling holes. Ensure the template is level using the included mini-level.
• Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. For concrete/brick walls, insert the plastic anchors into the drilled holes.
• Attach the wall plate to the wall using the lag bolts and washers. Tighten all bolts securely.

• Tilt Adjustment: Use the tilt adjustment mechanism to angle your TV +10° upwards or -10° downwards to reduce glare and achieve the perfect viewing angle.
• Swivel Adjustment: The mount allows for a wide swivel range of ±165°, enabling you to turn your TV left or right to suit various seating positions.

Maintenance

• Regular Checks: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight and secure.
• Cleaning: Wipe the mount with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Lubrication: Moving parts are designed for smooth operation and generally do not require lubrication. If movement becomes stiff, consult customer support.

Troubleshooting

• TV is not level: Use the level adjustment feature (±3°) to fine-tune the horizontal position. Ensure the wall plate was installed level initially.
• Mount feels loose: Re-check all lag bolts securing the wall plate to the wall and all screws attaching the TV brackets to the TV. Tighten any loose fasteners.
• Difficulty moving the TV: Ensure no cables are snagged or pinched. Check for any obstructions. The mount is designed to be sturdy; some resistance is normal, especially with heavier TVs.
• Missing parts: Refer to the package contents list. If any parts are missing, contact HCMOUNTING customer service immediately.
