Step 3
Securing the flat mount
To determine the desired viewing height, use the center slot opening in the wall mount as a center reference for the plasma television when mounted. Once the height is determined,
use the bubble level to insure that the bracket is level. Next, using a pencil, mark the four (4) lag bolt slot openings on the mounting bracket. Before continuing, confirm the marks are
located on the center of the studs.
Drill 1/4" pilot holes on the four (4) markings on the wall. Raise the universal flat or universal tilt bracket and have someone hold it in place (
arrow side away from the wall and
pointing up
). Put the lag bolt through the flat washers. Screw the lag bolt through the upper left slot opening into the 1/4" pilot hole. Confirm that the wall mount is still leveled and then
screw a lag bolt to the upper right side slot opening into the 1/4" pilot hole. Then install the remaining two lag bolts tightly into the wall studs in the lower left and right slot openings on
the wall mount.
Lateral movement of approximately 1½" for final positioning is now possible. Make any positioning changes then secure the lag bolts.
