Parts Needed if You Have a  TV as Shown Below

CAUTION: When attaching the TV Brackets to the back of the TV, ensure the end with round holes on the TV Brackets are pointing to the top of the TV and are equally centered on the back of the TV.

PLEASE NOTE: The bolt hole locations on your TV may vary in accordance with the manufacturer’s design of the TV. We are only illustrating possible locations
of the bolt holes.

Option A (For Flat Back TV)

Option B (For Curved Back TV)
Spacers must be tall enough so that the curve on the back of the TV will not interfere with the mounting plate.

Option C (For TV with A “Bump”)
Spacers must be tall enough so there is no gap between TV bracket and bump on the back of the TV. Option D (for TV with Cable Interference)
For cable interference, use Spacers [F1], [F2] and [F3] to create extra space between the TV and TV brackets.

Option E (For Recessed Holes
The Spacers need to fill in the recessed holes on the back of the TV so that the TV Brackets are as close to the TV as possible.
