Installation Steps
Follow these steps carefully for a secure installation. Refer to the included drilling template for precise hole placement.
- Attach TV Brackets: Secure the TV brackets to the back of your TV using the appropriate screws, washers, and spacers from the hardware kit. Ensure the brackets are centered and level.
- Mark Drilling Locations: Position the wall plate assembly on the wall at your desired height. Use the integrated bubble level to ensure it is perfectly horizontal. Mark the drilling points through the holes on the wall plate.
- Drill Pilot Holes:
- For Wood Studs: Drill pilot holes using a 7/32" (5.5mm) drill bit.
- For Solid Concrete/Brick Walls: Drill pilot holes using a 3/8" (10mm) masonry drill bit. Insert wall anchors into these holes.
- Mount Wall Plate: Attach the wall plate assembly to the wall using the lag bolts and washers. Tighten all bolts securely.
- Hang TV: Carefully lift your TV with the attached brackets and hook it onto the wall plate. Ensure the TV is securely seated on the mount.
- Secure TV to Mount: Use the safety screws or locking mechanisms on the TV brackets to prevent the TV from accidentally lifting off the wall plate.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| TV is not level after installation. | Minor misalignment during installation. | Use the ±3° level adjustment feature to fine-tune the TV's position. |
| Mount feels loose on the wall. | Lag bolts not fully tightened or incorrect wall anchors used. | Ensure all lag bolts are securely tightened. Verify correct anchors were used for your wall type. If on wood studs, ensure bolts are in the center of the stud. |
