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
speaker, 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].
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 an 8” shelf, to go from 28” of travel, to 30” of
travel, you have to raise the mount up 6.5”. So your new bottom
position is actually 4.5” higher.
