Locate Mounting Site
WARNING: IMPROPER INSTALLATION CAN LEAD TO MOUNT FALLING CAUSING SEVERE
PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT! It is the installers responsibility to
make certain the structure to which the mount is being attached is capable of
supporting five times the combined weight of all components located on the
mount, not to exceed 250 lbs (113.4 kg).
NOTE: Proceed to either the Installing to a Wood Stud Wall section or the
Installing to a Concrete Wall section.
Installing to a Wood Stud Wall
CAUTION: MINIMUM HORIZONTAL DISTANCE BETWEEN WALL BRACKETS IS 24″
(610mm). Do not place mounting brackets closer together than 24″ (610mm). When
attaching to a wall containing studs located 16″ on center, space the uprights
32″ (813mm) apart.
-
Determine the center of the TV screen, and where it should be located on the wall.
-
Locate the closest stud to the left and right of the selected location.
NOTE: If the screen area lies over a stud, use that stud and the stud to either the left or right of it. -
Line up the notches on mount (Y) with center of screen marking to determine vertical center. (See Figure 1)
-
Measure up 8″ (203mm) from the center point to mark location of the upper mounting slots.
-
Using a level, mark the wall on each stud to attach the mount through the upper mounting slots. (See Figure 2)
-
Drill one 7/32″ (5.5mm) pilot hole in each stud.
-
Partially install two 5/16 x 2-1/2″ flanged lag bolts (N) into pilot holes but do not tighten to wall.
-
Hang mount (Y), aligning upper mounting slots over lag bolts and adjust side-to-side for proper location.
-
Place one slotted washer (Q) over each flanged lag bolt. (See Figure 2)
-
Tighten lag bolts to secure mount (Y) to wall at upper mounting slots.
-
Mark the attachment points for the lower mounting slots, making sure the attachment points are located on the studs. (See Figure 2)
-
Drill 7/32″ (5.5mm) pilot holes at markings for lower mounting holes. (See Figure 2)
-
Use two 5/16 x 2-1/2″ flanged lag bolts (N) and two 5/16″ slotted washers (Q) to attach the mount to the wall through the lower mounting holes. (See Figure 2)
-
Slide rails to approximate center of screen location.
-
Proceed to Locking Rails section.
Installing to a Concrete Wall
CAUTION: MINIMUM HORIZONTAL DISTANCE BETWEEN WALL BRACKETS IS 24″
(610mm). Do not place mounting brackets closer together than 24″ (610mm).
- Determine the center of the TV screen, and where it should be located on the wall.
- Line up the notches on mount (Y) with center of screen marking to determine vertical center. (See Figure 1)
- Measure up 8″ (203.2mm) from the center point to mark location of the upper mounting slots. (See Figure 1)
- Using a level, mark the wall through both upper mounting slots. (See Figure 3)
- Drill one 3/8″ x 3-1/2″ (9.5mm x 88.9mm) pilot hole at each marking.
- Install an anchor (P) into each pilot hole using a hammer, making sure that the anchor is flush with the wall.
- Partially install two 5/16 x 2-1/2″ flanged lag bolts (N) into pilot holes but do not tighten to wall.
- Hang mount (Y), aligning upper mounting slots over lag bolts and adjust side-to-side for proper location.
- Place one slotted washer (Q) over each flanged lag bolt. (See Figure 3)
- Tighten lag bolts to secure mount (Y) to wall at upper mounting slots.
- Mark the attachment points for the lower mounting slots, making sure the attachment points are located on the studs. (See Figure 3)
- Drill 3/8″ x 3-1/2″ (9.5mm x 88.9mm) pilot holes at markings for lower mounting holes. (See Figure 3)
- Use two 5/16 x 2-1/2″ flanged lag bolts (N) and two 5/16″ slotted washers (Q) to attach the mount to the wall through the lower mounting holes. (See Figure 3)
- Slide rails to approximate center of screen location.
Locking Rails (Optional)
1. Lock rails into place using two 1/4-20 x 3/4″ set screws (S) on mount
upright (Y) and the 1/8″ hex key (U). (See Figure 4)
2. Repeat for remaining mount upright.
NOTE: To easily install upper set screw against upper rail, place set
screw (S) onto hex key (U), and feed up into hole while turning to
tighten. Attaching
Interface Brackets to Screen
-
Align the center of the bracket (V and W) with center of screen. (See Figure 5)
NOTE: The diamond-shape holes in the bracket correspond to the center of the mount. WARNING: IMPROPER INSTALLATION CAN LEAD TO DISPLAY FALLING CAUSING SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT! Using screws of improper size may damage your display. Properly sized screws will easily and completely thread into display mounting holes. If spacers are required, be sure to use longer screws of the same diameter. -
Select correct screws, nesting spacers (if necessary) and universal washers from the hardware bag (A-L) and attach brackets to back of screen. (See Figure 5)
NOTE: The nesting spacers (MA) may be used separately, or put two together in different configurations to create different size spacers. (See Figure 6)
Switching Interface Brackets (Optional)
If an installation situation makes adjusting the location of interface
brackets necessary, there are several options.
- The wall brackets may be adjusted side to side at the point of attachment. (See Figure 7)
- The location of the left and right interface brackets (V and W) may be switched. (See Figure 7)
- If necessary, the interface brackets may be reversed. (See Figure 8)
a. Remove display from mount.
b. Remove interface brackets from display.
c. Switch the interface brackets to the opposite sides of the wall mount.
Attaching Screen to Wall Mount
-
Attach wall covers (X) to top and bottom of both wall brackets. (See Figure 9) NOTE: NEVER place both interface brackets (V and W) to one side of the wall mount center line! (See Figure 10)
NOTE: Do NOT allow both interface brackets (V and W) to be located on same side of wall bracket. (See Figure 10) ** Both interface brackets must NEVER be located to one side of the wall brackets! NEVER place both interface brackets to one side of the wall mount center line (CL)!
IMPORTANT** ! : Completely extend bottom of interface brackets (by pulling downward) to set interface brackets in SERVICE position before hanging on top rail. (See Figure 11) -
Hang screen onto the top rail of the mount (Y). (See Figure 12)
• Hang top hook of interface brackets (V and W) onto the top rail of the mount (Y). (See Figure 12)
NOTE: The screen initially installs into the “service mode” to allow easy cable access. -
Adjust screen and rails to desired viewing position, and route cables between wall and rails.
CAUTION: PINCH POINTS! Keep fingers, hands and cables out of pinch point areas. -
Fasten bottom of screen to mount:
• Open latch by pushing bottom of interface bracket up to OPEN position, latching interface brackets to lower rail, and then push up from bottom of interface bracket
again until the interface bracket is in CLOSED position. (See Figure 11) and (See Figure 12)
Adjustments
Horizontal Adjustment
- The mount wall brackets may be adjusted side-to-side at the point of attachment. (See Figure 13)
- The screen may be adjusted along rails side to side.
NOTE: NEVER place both interface brackets (V and W) to one side of the wall mount center line! (See Figure 10)
NOTE: Do NOT allow both interface brackets (V and W) to be located on same side of wall bracket. (See Figure 10)
Roll/Height Adjustment of Wall Brackets
NOTE: The height adjust wall brackets allow adjustment of + 1/2″
(12.7mm).
- Turn to right (tighten) to raise side of screen. (See Figure 14)
- Turn to left (loosen) to lower side of the screen.
Backwards
Angle Compensation
The KITXWXSM1UP may be slightly adjusted to help compensate for the forward
tilt of a heavy screen.
NOTE: The interface brackets (V and W) ship in the 0° tilt position. (See
Figure 15)
- With interface brackets in CLOSED position (See Figure 11), remove two fasteners holding tilt compensation in place on each interface bracket (V and W). (See Figure 15)
- Adjust interface bracket for -1° or -2° back tilt, as required. (See Figure 15)
- Tighten two fasteners (removed in Step 1). (See Figure 15)
Locking Screen Interface Brackets (Optional)
1. Lock screen interface brackets onto mount rails using one 3/8-16 x 3/4″
set screw (T) on each interface bracket. (See Figure 16) Locking Mount (Optional)
- Add padlock (not included) to interface bracket to complete security. (See Figure 17)
NOTE: The padlock maximum shackle diameter is 5/16″ (7.9 mm).
