5.2 Step-by-Step Installation Guide
- Attach TV Brackets to TV:
Carefully place your TV face down on a soft, clean surface. Select the correct size screws and spacers from the hardware kit that fit your TV's VESA mounting holes. Attach the two vertical TV brackets to the back of your TV using these screws and spacers. Ensure the brackets are centered and securely fastened.

- Mount Wall Plate to Wall:
a. Use a stud finder to locate the wood studs in your desired mounting location. Mark the center of the studs. For concrete/brick walls, mark your desired drill points.
b. Use the provided drilling template to mark the precise drilling locations on the wall. Ensure the template is level using the included bubble level.
c. Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. For wood studs, drill directly. For concrete/brick walls, insert the provided concrete anchors into the pilot holes.
d. Position the wall plate assembly over the drilled holes and secure it to the wall using the lag bolts and washers. Tighten all bolts firmly but do not overtighten.

- Hang TV onto Wall Plate:
With assistance, carefully lift the TV and hook the attached TV brackets onto the horizontal bars of the wall plate. Ensure the TV is seated securely. Engage the safety locks on the bottom of the TV brackets to prevent accidental dislodgement.
- Connect Integrated Power Strip:
The mount features an integrated power strip with 2 AC outlets and 2 USB ports. Once the TV is mounted, connect your TV's power cable and any streaming devices to the power strip. Use the provided 6.23 ft power cord to connect the power strip to a wall outlet. Utilize the cable storage straps to neatly organize all cables along the mount arms.
