Frequently Asked Questions - OLW480B LG

What is the maximum TV weight this wall mount can support?

The LG OLW480B can support a maximum tensile load of 50 kg (110 lbs).

What VESA patterns are compatible with the OLW480B?

It supports standard VESA patterns 300x300 mm and 300x200 mm, and can be lengthened to 400x200 mm.

Can I install this mount on a drywall or plaster wall?

The manual recommends installing on concrete walls only. For wooden studs, follow the specific instructions in the manual. Issues from installation on other materials like drywall or plaster are not covered.

Do I need a professional installer for this mount?

LG strongly recommends hiring a professional installer. If you are experienced, you may install it yourself by following the manual carefully.

How do I adjust the tilt of the TV after installation?

How do I level the TV if it is not straight?

After installation, you can horizontally adjust the TV by ±10 mm using the leveling screws on the mount.

Is the mount compatible with curved TVs?

The manual does not specify curved TV compatibility. It is designed for flat-screen TVs. Check with LG or a professional installer for curved models.

How do I secure the TV to prevent it from falling?

After attaching the TV to the wall bracket, fix the lock spring to secure it. Also ensure all screws are tightened to the specified torque (45-60 kgf·cm).

Can I use this mount on a ceiling?

Instructions

1. Remove any screws that are already fastened to the parts to be attached to the wall mount.

2. Fix the guide spacers and the guide spacer screws in order as shown in the image.

3. Place the product on a table with the screen facing down. Make sure that you place it on a flat surface with a soft cloth or a cushion to protect the screen.

1. Unfasten the screws (at 8 points).

2. Hold the wall mounting bracket and pull on both sides.

1. Once lengthened, refasten the screws to their parts (at 8 points).

3

Fixing the Anchors and Screws in Place

Please follow the instructions below.

— Check the wall material and the thickness of the finish.

• You can use the included anchors and screws only when the wall is made of concrete that will not crack.
• Do not install the device on wood studs, plaster boards, or walls made with medium-density fiberboard (MDF). If installing on such materials, the anchor screws must be fixed on the concrete behind the finish. If there is no concrete on the other side, then you must first install a separate hanger to which the anchors and screws can be fixed.
• When installing the product on a type of wall not specified in this manual, make sure each fixed point can withstand a pullout load of at least 70 kgf (154 lbf, 686 N) and a shear load of at least 100 kgf (220.5 lbf, 980 N).

c. Insert the provided wall mounting anchor into the hole. (Use a hammer to insert the anchor.)
d. Place the wall mounting bracket against the wall and align it with the holes. Make sure that the tilt adjustment part faces upward.
e. Insert the wall mounting screws into the holes and tighten them. Tighten the screws with a torque between 45 kgf/cm (39 lbf/in) and 60 kgf/cm (52 lbf/in) or more.

When mounting to wooden stud (VESA Size 400X200)

a. Locate and mark the centers of the wall studs using a stud finder.
b. After aligning the wall mounting bracket on the wall where the center of the wood stud is marked, mark the location of the screws and then remove the wall mounting bracket. (Use a level to make sure your screw marks are level.)
c. Use the ∅ 4 mm drill bit for wood to drill holes with the depth of 76 mm(2.9 Inches) or above where the wall mounting screw location is marked on the wall. (Clean the drilled hole.)
d. Tighten the wall mounting screws for the wall bracket on the drilled hole.

→ At this time, tighten the screw so that the wall, wall mounting bracket and the wall mounting screw are pressed against one another. (Drywall can be damaged when tightened with excessive force, please be careful.)

→ When tightening the screw use the + driver (manual or motorized) or 8 mm wrench.

6 Installing the Wall Mounting Bracket

- It is recommended that you install this product only on concrete walls. Issues that may arise due to installation on other materials (walls made of wood, plywood, bricks, etc.) will not be covered.

→ Position the wall mounting bracket in the desired spot, mark the screw holes, and remove the bracket.

→ Refer to the image below on how to fix the wall mounting bracket in place.

→ Use a leveler to check whether the wall mount is level.

→ If you are unable to tighten the screws in their specified points, you can fasten them in other adjacent points. However, do not change the locations of two or more points.

→ Fix two wall mounting screws in the upper left and two wall mounting screws in the upper right. Fix one screw in the lower left and one screw in the lower right.

→ Use a Phillips screwdriver (manual or electric) or an 8 mm wrench on the screws so that the wall mounting bracket completely touches the wall.

7 Attaching the TV to the Wall Mounting Bracket

— Two or more people are needed to lift the product.

Technical diagram showing a device with internal components and a magnified view of the internal structure (no text or symbols present)

* Caution: Make sure that the power cord does not get trapped between the wall mounting bracket and the set during installation.

(A trapped power cord may cause damage to the product.)

→ Place the product on the wall in the direction of the arrow with the guide spacers in the wall mounting bracket. Attach the lower part first, then attach the upper part by slightly lifting up the set.

- Make sure that the product is fixed securely in place by pulling on the bottom of the set.

- If speakers have been attached to the product, lift it by holding the product itself, not the speakers.

8 Fixing the Lock Spring

* Caution: If it is not fixed securely, the set may fall off, resulting in damage or injury.

9 Leveling the Product

- If the product is not level after installation, adjust it using the screws. (The product goes up or down depending on the direction the screws are turned.)

10 Organizing the Cables and Attaching the Set Protection Cushion

• Organize the cables as shown in the image. You should use cable organizer bands purchased separately or use those provided with your TV.
• Attach the set protection cushion to reduce the shock received by the set as it bumps into the wall when tilting. Attach it to the desired location as shown in the image.

* Caution: Make sure that the power cord or cables do not get trapped between the wall mount and the wall as this may damage the cables.

11 Adjusting the Tilt Movement Strength

• If your TV is not fixed in the up/down direction and keeps moving, turn the left/right adjusting screw in the direction of "+" turning it for "1/4 of a turn" (6-click sounds). (The wall mount will be fixed.)
• In contrast, if your TV is stiff in the up/down direction when moving, turn the left/right adjusting screw in the direction of "-" , turning it for "1/4 of a turn" (6-click sounds). (The wall mount will easily move.)

* Initial state setting method
a. Turn the left/right adjusting screw all the way in the "+" direction.
b. Turn both left/right adjusting screws half way in the "-" direction, (12-click sounds).
c. Once 'a' and 'b' steps are completed, they are returned to the initial shipment status.

* Caution: Excessive adjustment of the adjusting screws in the "+" and "-" direction may damage the TV and/or the wall mount.
