Installation Steps
A1: Install Flexi Mount into Masonry or Solid Concrete
Step 1:
Mark mounting points on the wall. Use a level to ensure accuracy. Secure the mounting bracket to the wall using appropriate anchors and screws (refer to part list for specific hardware).
Step 2:
Drill holes of specified diameter (e.g., Ø10mm) at marked points. Ensure the depth is sufficient (e.g., 80mm).
Step 3:
Attach the main arm assembly (G) to the wall bracket using screws (H).
A2: Install Flexi Mount into Wood Stud
Step 1:
Locate wall studs. Mark mounting points on the wall, ensuring they align with the center of the studs. Secure the mounting bracket to the wall using appropriate screws.
Step 2:
Drill pilot holes of specified diameter (e.g., Ø4mm) into the wood studs. Ensure the depth is sufficient (e.g., 80mm).
Step 3:
Attach the main arm assembly (G) to the wall bracket using screws (H).
B: TV Installation
VESA: 100x100, 200x100mm, 200x200mm
Step 1:
Attach the VESA plate to the back of the TV using screws (B, C, D as appropriate). Ensure the correct orientation.
