Installation Instructions

STEP 1: Installing Mounting Bracket On Rear Of Flatscreen

- Begin by aligning brackets with hole pattern on rear of flatscreen device, while ensuring that device screen is resting on a non-scratch surface. The appropriate bolts and washers should be selected by measuring the height, size and position of holes on rear of flatscreen device, and determining which bolts and washers fit best.

This may vary according to specific brand, make and model of flatscreen device. (Fig. 1)

- Depending on the hole distance found on flatscreen, included bracket extenders may be required; measure holes to determine so. If indeed required, align all 4 bracket extenders against main bracket to form an enlarged 'X' shape; insert both screw threads on bracket extenders through the holes found

on each front corner of main bracket; fasten included hex nuts securely with a wrench. (Fig.2)

- Use the shortest configuration of bolts, washers and spacers for a secure fit. Spacers may or may not be required depending on curvature of flat screen device and rear dimensions. During hardware installation, ensure that extending arm does not wobble or flop around.

• Note that bolts must be hand-fastened into holes with a screwdriver or socket wrench, to avoid overtightening and possible damage.

Hardware Configurations

For Display With Flat Back:

Install bracket directly to flatscreen device using only bolts and washers provided; align bolt with proper sized hole on washer. (Fig. 3)

For Display With Curved Backs & Recessed Mountings:

Install appropriate sized spacer between bracket and flatscreen device; then fasten securely with bolts and washers. (Fig. 4)

STEP 2: Positioning Mount Correctly On Wall

- The optimal height to position a flatscreen device is by mounting it at eye-level of viewer. This can be accomplished in one of two ways:

• Measure distance from seating area to viewing area to determine proper placement. The ideal position should place the center of the panel (where the diagonals meet) as close as possible to eye-level.

- For a simpler calculation, cut a piece of sturdy cardboard that's approximately the same size as flatscreen device and tape to wall; gaze at cardboard to determine if it is at a comfortable level; reposition the cardboard until it is sitting at a perfect height and mark location of cardboard on wall with a pencil.

STEP 3:

Installing Mounting Bracket Directly On Wall

• After confirming height positioning is appropriate by marking wall with a pencil, hold wall mount of mounting bracket firmly against wall and use pencil to mark exact location of drill holes; have another person maintain a firm grip on attached flatscreen device at all times during this process; remove wall mount and pre-drill holes

(see sidebar for specific mounting details regarding sheetrock and concrete walls).

• To ensure wall mount is not being installed upside down, verify that oversized rounded hole is positioned on the upper part of mount. (Fig. 5)
• Screw a bolt into upper hole, leaving a few threads of bolt showing.

- Hold wall mount securely and begin inserting large upper hole into bolt; then pull wall mount downwards so bolt slides into smaller hole found above; tighten upper bolt completely. Finish by inserting bottom bolts into place and tighten securely. (Fig. 6 & 7)
