WARNING

• The maximum temperature at the front of the fireplace mantle should never be more than 100^ (37.8°C).
• The fireplace mantle should not extend more than 12"(304mm) from the mounting surface.
  ● This mount can support displays weighing between 61\~110lbs(28\~50kg).
• The mounting surface should be a wood stud frame wall with studs spaced no more than 24"(609mm) apart; The wall must not exceed 5/8"(16mm) thick.
• Ensure that the mounting surface is capable of supporting the combined weight of the mount and any mounted display.
• This mount should only be installed by persons with a basic knowledge of building construction and installations.
• This bracket should only be installed by two people. Do not attempt to install it by yourself.
• If mounting to a wall of wood stud construction, ensure that mounting bolts are anchored in the center of the studs. When installing the TV mount on a concrete wall, the wall must be at least 8.0" (203mm) thick with a minimum compressive strength from 2500 to 3000 psi (17.2 to 20.7 Mpa) and must meet the ASTM C39 specification. When installing the TV mount on a cinder block wall, the cinder blocks must meet the ASTM C216 specifications and have a minimum nominal width of 8.0" (203mm). Be sure to mount it in a solid part of the block, generally 1" (25mm) minimum from the side of the block. Do not drill into mortar joints! If plaster/dry wall is thicker than 5/8" (16mm), custom fasteners must be supplied by the installer. Note that hardware and instructions are provided for installation to wood stud walls only.

INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS

WARNING: Please read and follow these installation considerations before beginning the installation to ensure the wall mount is compatible with your mounting location and display.

1. The temperature at the front of the fireplace mantle must never exceed 100^ F ( 38^ C).

1. If mounting to studs, the studs must be spaced no more than 24" (609mm) apart. These studs should be symmetrically positioned, or the installation will not be even. The drywall must be no more than 5/8" thick.

2. The distance from the mesa of the fireplace to the wall must be less than 12"(30.4cm).

1. This fireplace TV mount is designed for larger and heavier TVs. If your TV weighs less than 61 lbs, the arm may not fully lower under the weight of the TV.

[Non-Text]

1. The minimum vertical space between the bottom of the wall plate (#AA) and the top of the mantel (Mantel Clearance) will change depending on the depth of the mantel. Deeper mantels will require higher vertical clearance to ensure that the TV and the mount arm have enough clearance when raised and lowered. Refer to the table below to determine the required minimum vertical space.

If Mantel Depth is:	Mantel Clearance Wall Space Height
Less than 8”	+5”	TV height +12”
8”~11”	+6.5”	TV height +13.5”
11”~13”	+8”	TV height +15”
13”~16”	+11”	TV height +18”

INSTALLATION

Use a tape measure to determine the center point of the mantle. Mark the centerline with a pencil or tape.

1 Wood Stud Installation Option

Determine the placement of the template by referencing the guide on page 6, step 5.

Use a bubble level to ensure straightness, then tape or hold the Template (#II) in the final mounting location and drill 4 pilot holes in the locations that line up with the center of the studs. Drill the pilot holes using a 3/16in drill bit to a depth of 2.7".

2 Concrete/Brick Installation Option

Determine the placement of the template by referencing the guide on page 6, step 5. Use a bubble level to ensure straightness, then ape or hold the Template (#II) in the final mounting location and drill 6 pilot holes, all 4 corners and 2 in the middle. Drill the pilot holes using a 3/8in drill bit to a depth of 2.7".
