Installation instructions

STEP 1- Determine whether your TV has a flat, irregular, or obstructed back

1. Carefully place your TV screen face-down on a cushioned, clean surface to protect the screen from damages and scratches.
2. If your TV has a table-top stand attached, remove the stand. See the documentation that came with your TV for instructions.
3. Lay the TV brackets, oriented vertically, on the back of your TV.
4. Align the screw holes in the TV brackets with the mounting screw holes on your TV.
5. Identify which type of back your TV has:
   • Flat back: The brackets lay flush against the back of your TV and do not block any jacks. You do not need spacers when assembling the wall mount.

Obstructed back: The brackets block one or more of the jacks on the back of your TV. You need spacers when assembling the wall mount.Irregularly-shaped back: There is a gap between a bracket and some part of the back of your TV. You need spacers when assembling the wall mount.6 Remove the TV brackets.
STEP 2 – Select screws, washers, and spacers

1. Select the hardware for your TV (screws, washers, and spacers). A limited number of TVs come with mounting hardware included. (If there are screws that came with your TV, they are almost always in the holes on the back of your TV.) If you don’t know the correct length of the mounting screws your TV requires, test various sizes by hand-threading the screws.
   Select one of the following types of screws:
   For a TV with a flat back:
   • M4 × 12 mm screws (K)
   • M5 × 20 mm screws (B)
   • M6 × 20 mm screws (D)
   • M8 × 20 mm screws (F)
   For a TV with an irregular/obstructed back:
   • M4 × 35 mm screws (A)
   • M5 × 35 mm screws (C)
   • M6 × 35 mm screws (E)
   • M8 × 36 mm screws (G)
   If you use M4/M5 screws, select the M4/M5 washer (I) or if you use M6 or M8 screws, select the M6/M8 washer (J). For an irregular or obstructed TV back, also use the spacers (H).
   CAUTION: To avoid potential personal injuries and property damage, make sure that there are adequate threads to secure the brackets to your TV. If you encounter resistance, stop immediately and contact customer service. Use the shortest screw and spacer combination to accommodate your TV. Using hardware that is too long may damage your TV. However, using a screw that is too short may cause your TV to fall from the mount.

2. Remove the screws from the holes in the back of your TV.

STEP 3 – Installing the TV plate
You’ll need Measure the vertical and horizontal distances between the mounting holes on the back of your TV. This mount supports VESA patterns from (W × H) 75 × 75 mm to 400 × 400 mm with all common sizes in between. Installing your adapters
Depending on the mounting-hole pattern on your TV, you may need to install the TV plate adapters.
Place the adapter washer over the adapter bolt, then screw on the adapter nut and tighten with a 4 x 4 Allen wrench. Option 1: Installing the TV plate to TVs with a flat back

1. Align the TV plate with the screw holes on the back of the TV. Make sure that the plate is level.

2. Place washers over the holes in the TV plate. Insert screws through the washers and TV plate.
   Note: The washer (I or J) size depends on the size of the screws used. Use the I washer with screw B or K. Use the J washer with screw D or screw F.

3. Tighten the screws until they are snug against the TV plate. Do not over tighten.

OR
Option 2: Attaching the TV plate to TVs with irregular or obstructed backs

1. Place spacers (H) over the holes on the back of the TV.
2. Align the TV plate with the screw holes on the back of the TV. Make sure that the plate is level.
3. Place washers over the holes in the TV plate. Insert screws through the washers, TV plate, and spacers.
4.  Tighten the screws until they are snug against the TV plate. Do not over tighten.
   Note: The washer (I or J) size depends on the size of the screws used. Use the I washer with screw A or screw C. Use the J washer with screw E or screw G.

STEP 4 – Determine wall-mount location You’ll need Notes:
• For more detailed information on determining where to drill your holes, visit our online height-finder at: http://mf1.bestbuy.selectionassistant.com/index.php/heightfinder
• Your TV should be high enough so your eyes are level with the middle of the screen.
This is normally 40 to 60 in. from the ground.
The center of your TV will be offset .8 in. lower than the center of the wall plate on the wall-mount. Before you drill holes in the wall:

1. Measure the distance from the bottom of your TV to the center point halfway between the top and bottom mounting holes on the back of your TV. This is measurement a.
2. Measure the distance from the floor to where you want the bottom of your TV to be placed on the wall. Keep in mind that the bottom of your TV should be placed above any furniture (such as entertainment centers or TV stands). Your TV should also be above items placed on top of the furniture (like a Blu-ray player or cable box). This measurement is b.
3. Add a + b. The total measurement is the height where you want the center of the wall plate to be on the wall.
4. Use a pencil to mark this spot on the wall.

STEP 5 – Option 1: Install on a wood stud wall
You’ll need

1. Locate the center of a stud with a stud finder.

2. Align the center of the wall plate template at the height (a + b) you determined in the previous step, make sure that the template is level, then tape it to the wall.
   Make sure that the template holes are on the stud and the template is level.
   Note: It is very important that the wall plate is level. This determines if the TV will be level when extended from the wall.

3. Drill three pilot holes through the template to a depth of 2.4 in. (60 mm) using a 1/8 in. (3.5 mm) drill bit, then remove the template.

4. Place the magnetic level on the top of the wall plate, then align the wall plate with the pilot holes, insert the lag bolts (B1) through the lag bolt washers (B3) and through the holes in the wall plate. Make sure that the wall plate is level.

5. Tighten the lag bolts only until they are firm against the wall plate. Remove the magnetic level.

STEP 5 – Option 2: Install on a solid concrete or concrete block wall
You’ll need

1. Align the center of the wall plate template at the height (a + b) you determined in the previous step, use the level to make sure that the template is level, then tape it to the wall.
   CAUTION: To prevent property damage or personal injury, never drill into mortar between blocks. Mount the wall plate directly onto the concrete surface.
   Note: It is very important that the wall plate is level. This determines if the TV will be level when extended from the wall.

2. Drill three pilot holes through the template to a depth of 2.4 in. (60 mm) using a 7/16 in. (10.5 mm) diameter masonry drill bit, then remove the template.

3. Insert the concrete wall anchors (B2) into the pilot holes and use a hammer to make sure that the anchors are flush with the concrete surface.

4. Place the magnetic level on the top of the wall plate, then align the wall plate with the anchors, insert the lag bolts (B1) through the lag bolt washers (B3) and through the holes in the wall plate. Make sure that the wall plate is level then tighten the lag bolts only until they are firm against the wall plate.
   CAUTION: Avoid potential injuries or property damage! DO NOT over-tighten the lag bolts (B1).

• Minimum solid concrete thickness = 8 in. (20.3 cm)
• Minimum concrete block size: 8 x 8 x 16 in. (20.3 x 20.3 x 40.6 cm)

**STEP 6 – Mounting your TV

**

1. With another person, lift the TV and hang it on the wall plate.
2. Tighten the safety bolts to secure the TV to the wall plate.

STEP 7 – Adjusting the TV Mount Angle
Tilting the TV

1. If the TV screen does not tilt, use a wrench to adjust the left and right nuts on the TV plate.
2. Hold the top and bottom of the TV, then tilt the TV forward or backward.
3. Tighten the nuts when you are finished adjusting the tilt.

Rotating your TV
Left or right rotation can help reduce glare or make it easier to make connections on the back of your TV.

• To rotate the TV left or right, hold the sides of the TV, then push one side while pulling the other side.

Note: The rotation range may be limited on some TVs, especially larger screens.
