Installation Instructions
1. Attach the TV brackets
Option 1: Attaching to a flat mounting surface
Attach the left and right TV brackets (B and C) to the back of the TV using the M4/M5 washers (F) and either the M4 x 12 mm screws (D) or M5 x 12 mm screws (H). Alternatively, use the M6/M8 washers (M) with the M6 x 12 mm screws (J), M6 x 20 mm screws (K), or M8 x 16 mm screws (O).
Option 2: Attaching to a curved or irregular mounting surface
Attach the left and right TV brackets (B and C) to the back of the TV using the M4/M5 spacers (G), M4/M5 washers (F), and either the M4 x 30 mm screws (E) or M5 x 30 mm screws (I). Alternatively, use the M6/M8 spacers (N), M6/M8 washers (M), and either the M6 x 35 mm screws (L), M8 x 40 mm screws (P), or M8 x 60 mm screws (Q). Note: Use the M4 washers (F) between the spacers and the bracket with the M4 or M5 screws only.
2. Install the wall plate
Option 1: Installing to a wood stud wall
Note: Any material covering the wall must not exceed 5/8 in. (16 mm).
- Locate the studs. Verify the center of the stud with an awl or thin nail, or use an edge-to-edge stud finder.
- Level the wall plate (A) and mark hole locations.
- Drill pilot holes as illustrated. Pilot holes should be 75mm (3 in.) deep.
- Align the wall plate (A) with the pilot holes. Place the washers (T) over the holes. Insert the lag bolts (U) through the washers. Tighten the lag bolts with a socket wrench until the washers are pulled firmly against the wall plate. Caution: DO NOT over-tighten the lag bolts. Stud spacing should be between 16-24 inches (406mm-610mm).
Option 2: Installing to a solid concrete or concrete block wall
Note: Any material covering the wall must not exceed 5/8 in. (16 mm).
- Level the wall plate (A) and mark hole locations.
- Drill pilot holes as illustrated. Pilot holes should be 75mm (3 in.) deep. Caution: To prevent property damage or personal injury, never drill into mortar between blocks.
- Insert the concrete wall anchors (S) into the pilot holes and use a hammer to ensure the anchors are seated flush with the concrete surface.
- Align the wall plate (A) with the wall anchors. Place the washers (T) over the holes. Insert the lag bolts (U) through the washers. Tighten the lag bolts with a socket wrench until the washers are pulled firmly against the wall plate. Caution: DO NOT over-tighten the lag bolts (U).
3. Mount the TV to the wall
HEAVY! You will need assistance with this step. Holding the TV with the top of the screen tilted toward the wall, slide the upper notches of the TV bracket over the upper flange of the wall plate. Then, gently lower the TV until the lock engages the lower flange of the wall plate. There will be an audible click when the TV is securely latched into place.
4. Adjust the tilt angle (if necessary)
You can adjust the tilt angle of the screen 10° forward or 5° backward. If necessary, the tilt tension can be adjusted by tightening or loosening the tension knob with either the hex key (R) or by hand.
5. Remove the TV from the wall
Slide the latch to the unlatched position, then lift the TV up and off the wall bracket.
