5. HANG THE TV ON THE MOUNT
a. On the Hangers you will find to two (#10
, 7/8 in.)
lock
screws
with
large washers
.
b. Before lifting the TV into place. Remove the two
lock
screws
and
washers
from the Hangers.
Note: You may need assistance to lift the TV.
c. L
ift the TV and use the Hangers to hang the TV on
the Mount. (
When you release the weight of the TV, the
Mount may gently lower into an OUT/DOWN position.
)
d. For best operation, the TV should be centered on the
Mount.
e. Carefully
lower the TV and the Mount to the OUT
position.
f. Secure the Hangers to the Mount with the 2 Lock
Screws and washers that were removed.
6. FINE-TUNE THE COUNTERBALANCE STRENGTH.
From the factory the Down and Out Mount comes adjusted
for the heaviest TV, (
120 lbs.
). Usually it is easiest to pre-
adjust to an approximate value before wall mounting. After
wall mounting, the adjustment may be fine-tuned.
a. Use a 9/16 wrench to turn the nut on the bottom of
the adjustment spline. (
A ratcheting socket wrench with
extension is recommended.)
b. Turning
counter-clockwise
will
increase
the
counter-
weight
strength. It may take a couple of turns to use up
the slack in the mechanism before the counterbalance
block
starts to move and the gas springs compress.
(Or
expand, if you are reducing the counter balance force by
turning counter-clockwise).
c. Adjust the mechanism until the TV will
rest
in the
DOWN position and is as easy as possible to lift into the
UP/LOCKED position.
Adjust the counter weight force by turning
the lower nut (9/16) on the counter weight
mechanism.
Lift the TV up and onto the mount. Carefully
allow the Mount to take the weight of the TV.
As it does it may drop forward.
Secure the Hangers to the Mount with the
screws that were removed.
