Above Shelf Mounting 

To get the lowest possible bottom position when mounting above a shelf, it is 
very  important  that  you  put  extra  thought  into  the  mounting  process.   The 
Mount can clear shelves up to 16” deep. 

 

The TV Clearance Table shows the minimum clearance [C] needed between 
the  shelf  top  and  the  bottom  of  the  TV  (or  the  bottom  of  an  attached 
soundbar,  whichever  is  lower)  for  the  mount  to  swing  around  the  shelf.  To 
find the clearance needed, find the shelf depth [D], in this example 8”, and go 
down the column and find the corresponding minimum clearance height [C], 
which is 2.5”. Figure 8 shows where to measure [C] and [H]. 
 
Figure  15  and  the  Mount  Travel  Table  shows  you  how  much  downward 
travel  you  will  get  with  different  shelf  depths  and  heights  above  the  shelf.  
For  example,  to  find  the  downward  travel  [T]  when  you  have  an  8”  shelf 
depth  [D]  and  you  attach  the  bottom  of  the  mount  6”  above  the  shelf  [H].  
First  find  the  corresponding  [D]  and  look  down  the  column  and  find  the 
closest [H], which in this case is  5.75”.  Now go left along the row and find 
the corresponding Travel [T].  In this case you will get a downward travel of 
approximately 26”.   
 

Tips to get the Lowest Possible Bottom Position 

 

Get the top of the mount and the top of the TV to be as close as possible.  

 

Typically  you’ll  get  the  lowest  bottom  position  by  being  near  the 
minimum clearance shown in the TV Clearance Table. 

 

Getting  the  most  travel  possible  out  of  the  mount,  doesn’t  mean  you’ll 
get the lowest possible bottom position.  

o

 

For  example,  for  a  12”  shelf,  to  go  from  26”  of  travel,  to  27”  of 
travel  (1”  more),  you  have  to  raise  the  mount  up  2”.  So  your  new 
bottom position is actually 1” higher. 

o

 

If the mount would hit the shelf, simply change the bottom most (

position so it won’t. See the
