1. Introduction
Thank you for choosing the PERLEGEAR TV Wall Mount Bracket. This manual provides detailed instructions for safe and proper installation and use of your new TV wall mount. This bracket is designed for TVs between 32 and 70 inches, with a maximum load capacity of 40kg, and VESA patterns from 100x100mm to 400x400mm. It is specifically designed for installation on gypsum board walls using a staple-fixed method, eliminating the need for drilling large holes.
Please read this manual thoroughly before installation and retain it for future reference.
2. Safety Information
- Wall Compatibility: This product is designed exclusively for gypsum board walls. DO NOT install on wooden walls, concrete walls, or hard gypsum board walls. To confirm your wall type, insert a pin; if white powder adheres to the pin, it is gypsum board.
- Load Capacity: Ensure your TV's weight does not exceed the maximum load capacity of 40kg.
- TV Size and VESA: Verify your TV's size is between 32-70 inches and its VESA mounting pattern is within 100x100mm to 400x400mm.
- Installation Force: Installing the pins requires considerable force. Ensure the wall plate is pressed firmly against the wall and pins are inserted evenly.
- Two-Person Installation: For safety, especially with larger TVs, a two-person installation is highly recommended.
- Secure Pins: Ensure all pins are fully inserted into the wall for maximum stability.
- Post-Installation Check: After installation, gently check the TV for any wobbling or instability before use.

5. Setup and Installation
5.1 Pre-Installation Check
Before starting, ensure your wall and TV meet the compatibility requirements:
- Wall Type: Confirm your wall is gypsum board. This mount is not suitable for wooden, concrete, or hard gypsum board walls.
- TV Specifications: Your TV must be between 32-70 inches and weigh no more than 40kg.
- VESA Pattern: Check the VESA mounting holes on your TV. They must be between 100x100mm and 400x400mm.
- Cable Access: Ensure the wall mount will not obstruct any necessary cable ports on your TV.

5.2 Mounting the Wall Plate
- Determine the desired height and position for your TV. Use the included level to mark the horizontal line for the wall plate.
- Place the wall plate against the marked position on the gypsum board wall.
- Using the stapler and stapler guide, begin inserting the pins into the designated holes on the wall plate. Ensure the wall plate is pressed firmly against the wall.
- Insert pins evenly across the entire plate. Although each pin is small, the collective 640 pins provide strong fixation. This process may take some time, but new users can become accustomed to it quickly. Approximately 30 minutes is a typical installation time once familiar.
- Ensure all pins are fully inserted and flush with the wall plate for maximum stability.

8. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Pins are difficult to insert or bend. | Insufficient force, incorrect angle, or wall is not gypsum board. | Ensure the wall plate is flush against the wall. Apply firm, even pressure. Verify wall type. If the wall is not gypsum board, do not proceed with installation. |
| Wall plate is not flush with the wall after installation. | Pins not fully inserted. | Re-check all pins and ensure they are fully inserted into the wall. |
| TV wobbles or feels unstable after mounting. | Pins not fully secured, safety locks not engaged, or exceeding weight limit. | Ensure all pins are fully inserted. Verify safety locks are engaged. Confirm TV weight is within the 40kg limit. |
| TV mounting screws do not fit my TV. | TV requires a different screw size. | Contact PERLEGEAR customer service. They can provide compatible screws free of charge. |
