4. Setup and Installation
This section outlines the general steps for installing your KIMEX 018-6065W motorized TV mount. Specific details may vary based on your chosen installation method (floor or ceiling) and furniture integration.
4.1. Pre-Installation Checks
- Verify VESA Compatibility: Ensure your TV's VESA pattern (mounting holes on the back) falls within the range of 200x200 mm to 600x400 mm.
- Weight Capacity: Confirm your TV's weight does not exceed 60 kg (132 lbs).

- Secure the Base: Attach the base plate to the floor or the bottom of your furniture using appropriate fasteners (provided in the hardware kit).
- Secure the Column: For added stability, use the two fixation points on the rear of the column to secure it to a vertical surface (e.g., the back of a cabinet or a wall stud).
4.3. Attaching the TV
- Attach TV Brackets: Secure the TV mounting brackets to the back of your television using the appropriate VESA screws from the hardware kit. Ensure they are tightened securely.
- Mount TV to Column: Carefully lift the television and hook the TV mounting brackets onto the arms of the motorized column. The design allows for tool-free attachment.
- Secure with Anti-Detachment Screws: Once the TV is in place, secure it using the two anti-detachment screws to prevent accidental dislodgement.
4.4. Cable Management and Finishing
- Connect Power: Plug the power adapter into the mount and then into a power outlet.
- Manage Cables: Use the provided cable management clips to neatly route all TV and power cables along the column, preventing them from interfering with the mount's movement.
- Install Top Cover Plate: If integrating into furniture, attach the top cover plate to allow for a flush finish with a trapdoor or panel.
