Step 3: Mounting the TV

English

TILT KNOB

PAN KNOBS

Y

If your audio, video, and power cables will not be accessible after you mount the TV, you

need to make those connections now. Before doing this, however, make sure all TV and

component power cords are

not

plugged into any electrical outlets and your audio and

video equipment is turned off. Make sure you leave enough slack so you can install the

mount without any interference.

Figure 11

Getting the mount ready for attaching your TV

Tighten the “tilt” and “pan” knobs in the straight position using the supplied Allen Key Tool (Y) as

shown in Figure 11. This step makes your mount stable and easy to assemble.

Don’t forget those wires!
