INSTALLATION

STEP 1 ATTACHING THE TV BRACKETS TO YOUR TV
Before attaching the TV brackets to your TV, remove the preassembled bolts [S] and keep them for Step 6.

SELECT TV BOLTS
Only one bolt size fits your TV.

Hand thread bolts into the threaded inserts on the back of your TV to determine which bolt (M4, M6 or MB] to use. We recommend screwing in at least five turns. Do not turn past the bottom of the hole.

SPACER AND BOLT CONFIGURATIONS

ATTACH THE TV BRACKETS TO YOUR TV

CAUTION
The round holes should be directed toward the top and the slotted holes toward the bottom.
The brackets should be equally centered from the top and bottom of the TV and must be fastened securely in place.

OPTION A: FOR FLAT BACK TVS
Add spacers, if needed, to fit the bolt length and TV back.

OPTION B: FOR CURVED BACK TVS
Spacers must be tall enough so that the curved back of the TV does not interfere with the mounting plate.

OPTION C: FOR TVS WITH A BUMP
The TV brackets must be flush on the bump and leveled by spacers on the gap.

OPTION D: FOR TVS WITH PROTRUDING CABLES
Use spacers to create extra space between the TV and TV brackets.

OPTION E: FOR TVS WITH RECESSED HOLES
Spacers need to fill in the recessed holes on the back of the TV, while keeping the TV brackets as close to the TV as possible.
