Please verify that your installation meets all of these CRITICAL requirements:

A

MantelMount is designed for use only with decorative fireplaces that are not the primary heat source for a house. Temperature at the front edge of mantle should never exceed 110° F.

B Wall must be WOOD STUD FRAME only. There must be at least 2 studs available for mounting. Wall covering must not exceed 5/8 inch thick.
For other types of walls or other types of installations please visit the FAQ section at www.MantelMount.com.

110°F MAX.

2 STUDS

C Mantle must not extend from mounting surface more than 19 inches (22 inches for non-recessed installations). MantelMount can not extend past a mantel larger than 19 inches. Larger mantels will also reduce the amount of side-to- side swivel.

D TELEVISION REQUIREMENTS: 1. Weight must be below 125 pounds (56 Kg). 2. Screen size larger than 50 diagonal inches. 3. Mounting screw holes are VESA compliant. For non-VESA hole patterns, please visit the FAQ section at www.MantelMount.com.

19 inches MAXIMUM

larger than 50″

E The space above the mantle must be taller than the TV. The required space depends on how far out the mantle extends. Refer to chart below and add this additional height to the TV height to determine if space is tall enough.
TV height must include the height of the Sound Bar if one is being used.

If mantle extends: Less than 10 inches
10 – 12 inches 12 – 14 inches 14 – 17 inches 17 – 19 inches

! CAUTION:
Do Not use screws that are too long for the threaded inserts of Television. This can damage internal components.
4 IMPORTANT INFORMATION: The Vertical Braces {27} are a fixed distance (8 inches) higher than the bottom of the Lift Housing {30}. Always mount the Vertical Braces at least 8 inches up from the bottom of the TV so that the TV will hide the mount when it’s in the UP position.
If you want to locate the TV at a specific height, you can use this relationship to calculate the exact location for the Lift Housing {30} on the wall. Simply subtract 8 inches from the distance you end up with when you attach everything to the TV – including a sound bar if one is attached.
EXAMPLE: If the Vertical Braces {27} are 10 inches above the bottom of the TV, then the edge of the Lift Housing {30} will be: (10 – 8 =) 2 inches higher on the wall than the TV.

Should be more than 8 INCHES

5 The Vertical Braces {27} are always mounted higher than the bottom of the TV. However, the Brace Extenders {28} will be mounted one of two ways:
Without a Sound Bar, if needed – The Brace Extenders are installed slightly above the bottom of the TV. Use the Extenders for holes that are low on the TV.
With a Sound Bar – The Brace Extenders are installed below the TV with enough room to install the Sound Bar onto Horizontal Brace {29}. Or use Sound Bar Wings {59}.

6 Attach the Vertical Braces {27} to the TV so the bottoms of the Vertical Braces are at least eight inches higher than the bottom of the TV (so that the TV hides the mount housing).
NOTE: If all the screws for the back of the TV can fit into the TV Vertical Braces {27}, and a Sound Bar is not being used, then the Brace Extenders {28} do not need to be installed.

{27}

Without Sound Bar: Extenders are only needed for TV holes that are close to the bottom of the TV

Vertical Braces: Always higher than the bottom
of the TV
With Sound Bar: Extenders are a few inches below the TV

{28}
8 – 14 INCHES (Less if a Sound Bar is used)

7 Attach the TV Horizontal Brace {29} with Screws {18} if a Sound Bar is used. Each Extender {28} must be slid onto the Brace from the outer ends because there are thread inserts blocking the center of the Brace.
Attach the Extenders to the Vertical Braces using Screws {19} and Nuts {16}. Sound Bar Wings {59} are optional.

8 Measure the distance from the bottom of the Vertical Braces {27} (not the Extenders) to the bottom of television or Sound Bar.
Write down this distance to use in Step 9.

9 Determine the Vertical Position of the Housing:
The image below shows that the further out a mantle extends, the more it will interfere with the arc of the lowering TV. The MM860 Lift Housing {30} must be installed high enough to clear the mantel when it lowers. Larger mantels require higher installations.
Use the two measurements specified to reference the Look-up Chart below and obtain the minimum installation height for the Housing. This will be the closest distance that the bottom of the TV (or sound bar) can be installed above the mantel.
NOTE: If there is extra space available, due to a high ceiling for example, then these heights are only minimum requirements.

OPTIONAL: Auto Lowering Power Sensor (ALPS):
This unique MantelMount feature will allow the mount to lower to the the Memory 1 position whenever the TV is turned on, and return home when the TV is turned off. The mount will do this automatically without needing to use the Remote Control.
If the TV is plugged into the socket located onboard the MM860 instead of a wall outlet, MantelMount can monitor the power to the TV and determine when the TV is turned on or off.
If this feature is not desired, simply plug the TV into a wall outlet and operate the MM860 with the Remote Control.

OPTIONAL:
Hard Wire Conduit Access:
MM860 has rear access holes that accept standard knock-out fittings for 1/2″ aluminum conduit. A licensed electrician can hard wire an AC power socket or splice into the power cord.
Contact MantelMount for more information.

ALPS WILL NOT WORK IF ANY OTHER DEVICES OR POWER STRIPS ARE PLUGGED INTO THE ALPS SOCKET.

See STEP 27:

ALPS Socket for TV only

OPTIONAL: Adapter Brackets for 2×4 bracing:
MM860 includes brackets that make it easier to install horizontal 2×4 bracing inside the wall. This is because all the attachment holes in the brackets can be reached for drilling and screwing through the opening that is cut for the Lift Housing {30}, see FIG. A.

Notes: If the bracket is near the cutout opening, make sure to orient the attaching hardware away from the opening so they do not interfere with the Housing. This hardware is attached before the braces are installed into the wall, see FIG. B.

When cutting a center stud, measure 1.5″ above and below the template mark before the opening is cut out. Plunge cut through the stud at both locations and attach the cut ends to the cross braces when they are installed, see FIG. C.

Installation Options:
SURFACE MOUNT (non-recessed) installation using the Horizontal Braces {31} to attach to existing wall studs:
The Horizontal Braces can reach studs that are up to 34 inches (875mm) apart. They attach flush to the back of the Lift Housing {30}.
! CAUTION:
Do Not overtighten Lag Bolts {13}. Tighten only until the washers are firmly against the wall plate. Damage due to overtightening can cause property damage or injury.

SURFACE MOUNT (non-recessed) installation onto stone or concrete walls using the six holes in the back of the Recess Frame {30}. The lower Access Cover {32} must be removed to access the lower holes.
The wall must be solid stone or concrete that can hold five times the weight of all combined equipment. This surface must not be a facade or non-structural material. Use concrete anchors (not included) to attach mount to surface.

{20}

{17}

{13}

{11}

RECESSED installation using the Horizontal Braces {31} to attach to existing wall studs:
The Horizontal Braces attach to the flange on the front of the Lift Housing {30}. Use the included Template to mark the location to cut the drywall. This installation is easiest when there is no center stud that needs to be cut to make room.

{20}

{17}

{32}
Concrete Anchoring Hardware Not Included
RECESSED installation using the included 2×4 Stud Brackets {53}.
When studs are far apart, when a center stud needs to be cut, or when the cleanest look is desired, sections of horizontal 2×4 can be installed through the cutout. They provide a solid structure for the mount without the need for the Horizontal Braces. The mount is attached with Lag Bolts through the holes in the front flange of the Lift Housing {30}. Any studs that were cut can be reattached to the new sections of 2×4.

27 Configuration Module (continued):
Updating Firmware and adjusting ALPS (if needed):
Firmware Update (Local): MM860 stores two copies of Firmware onboard, Versions A and B.
One version is running while the other version is available to update. Download both A and B versions of the latest Firmware
onto the installation PC before starting. If the MM860 is running Version A then upload Version B . “Local Update” will ask for the location on the PC for the update, but it will not accept the same Version that it is currently running.
Using WiFi: If the 3-digit version number does not show, reload the page.
Smooth Start Modes: Uses ramped speeds as the mount starts moving downward.
Auto Lowering Power Sensing (ALPS): (when enabled) The MM860 monitors the power running through the cord of the TV. When the TV is turned on, the MM860 will detect increased power and automatically lower to Memory 1 position. When the TV is turned off, the MM860 will wait up to 10 seconds to be sure, then raise the mount.
If the ALPS feature is false triggering, verify what the TV is actually using during on and off events and fine tune the set points that trigger the
ALPS feature. The ALPS settings must be within the TV operating range.
TV Power is displayed in real-time with Ethernet connection, but WiFi requires page refresh each time the TV is turned on or off.
A good rule is to be 20% inside of each end of the operating range. Example: TV ON = 80(mA), TV OFF = 5(mA), total range = 75(mA)
75 x 0.2 = 15(mA). Thresholds would be 65(mA) and 20(mA).
