The SUPF2 stand is designed for Sony flat-screen color televisions models KE-37XS910, KE-42XS910, and KE-50XS910 (from December 2003). Use with other devices may cause instability and injury.

How to install the SUPF2 stand?

Installation must be carried out by at least two people, preferably by a certified Sony technician. Start by attaching the base to the pillars using the provided screws, tightening halfway then fully. Then, place the television on the stand by aligning the pegs into the notches and secure it with the provided screws. Connect the cables and attach the cable covers. Finally, anchor the television to the wall to prevent tipping.

Can I install the stand alone?

No, it is mandatory that installation be performed by at least two people. A single person risks causing an accident or injury due to the high weight of the television and stand.

How to clean the glass stand?

Use a soft dry cloth for routine cleaning. For stubborn stains, lightly dampen a cloth with diluted detergent, wipe, then dry with a dry cloth. Never use thinner, gasoline, or harsh chemicals as they would damage the glass surface.

What to do if the glass of the stand is cracked?

Do not use the stand if it is cracked. The glass could break, causing the television to fall and serious injury. Contact Sony customer service for a replacement.

How to anchor the television to the wall to prevent tipping?

Use the safety screws provided with the television (not included with the stand). Pass a sturdy rope or chain through the safety screws and securely attach it to a wall or pillar. This will prevent tipping during earthquakes.

What tools are needed for assembly?

You will need a Phillips screwdriver suitable for the provided screws. If you use an electric screwdriver, set the torque to about 1.5 N·m to avoid overtightening and damaging the screws.

Where to find the safety screws for wall anchoring?

The safety screws are not provided with the SUPF2 stand. They are included with the compatible Sony television. Consult the television manual for their location.

Can I use this stand with a television of another brand?

No, this stand is designed exclusively for the specified Sony televisions (KE-37/42/50XS910). Use with other devices may cause instability and risk of falling. Sony disclaims any liability for incorrect installation.

How to hide cables on this stand?

The stand comes with cable covers for the pillars and the base. After connecting the cables to the television, route them through the pillars in a balanced manner, then attach the cable covers by inserting the tabs into the pillars. This keeps the cables organized and out of sight.

Assembling the Floating Stand

Tip

Lay the packing box of the Floating Stand, etc., on the floor and place the pillars on the box with their rear sides (the side the cable cover is to be attached to) facing up. Set the box high enough that the bottom plate can stand upright to stabilize assembly, as illustrated below. Also, if you spread the cushioning sheet on the floor, damage to the floor can be avoided.

Attach the bottom plate to the pillars and secure them with screws.

Align the pillar screw holes with their respective hollows on the bottom plate.
2 Tighten all the screws to halfway, and then tighten each firmly.

Tip

Assembly can be made easier by temporarily securing the longer screws first.

Note

When using an electric screwdriver, set the torque setting to about 1.5N· m

Do not use an impact driver. If you use an impact driver or an electric screwdriver with the torque setting out of the specified range, screws may be excessively tightened, which may damage the screws or product. The stand may fall and serious injury may result.
