Remove the tape strip from the back of the guide.
Insert the supplied pushpin through the large red cross at the center of the guide.
Align mounting hole openings on guide with marks on wall, and pin the guide in place.
Note: If mounting to masonry, use the mounting guide as a template and mark the
desired mounting hole locations directly onto the wall.
Using a bubble level, level the guide and then press the adhesive backing against the
wall to hold the guide in position.
Follow the vertical lines on the guide to transfer your marks to the opposite Mounting
Hole.
Drill Mounting Holes:
Wooden Studs - Use a 5/32” (5 mm) drill bit, and drill 4 mounting holes 2.25” (57
mm) deep into the center of the studs.
Masonry – Use a 3/8” (10 mm) masonry bit, and drill 4 mounting holes, 2.5” (64
mm) deep. Insert Wall Anchors into the mounting holes, and tap them flush to the
wall with a hammer.
Caution: Wall anchors should only be used for masonry mounting. NEVER
use wall anchors to mount the wall plate to drywall.
If cutting openings for an electrical outlet and/or A/V interconnect cables, carefully
remove the perforated sections of the guide and then mark and cut the wallboard.
Caution: Make sure that there are no electrical cables running behind the
portion of the wall that you will cut.
Carefully remove the guide from the wall, and discard. Note: Be sure to hold the
guide in an upright position so as not to spill the collected dust.
Mount the wall plate to the wall with the supplied #12 Phillips Screws and Round
Washers.
Note: To make the installation easier, dab a bit of liquid soap onto the screw
threads before the driving screws into the stud.
Step 3: Attach the Mounting Rails
Consult the manufacturer of your TV to determine the correct size (diameter/length)
display mounting screws to use. Select the correct screws from the supplied Display
Hardware Kit.

Loosen the tilt tensioning screw with the supplied Hex Wrench (Fig.
11). Open the tilt mechanism fully, and then loosely re-tighten the
tension screw. (Fig. 3)
For proper installation, make sure that the UP
⇑
indicator stamped
into the mounting rails is pointing towards the top of the display
(Fig. 3), with the indicator side of the rail facing towards the center
of the display.
Use the selected display mounting screws and the
Square Washers to mount the rails to the back of
the display. (Fig. 4)
Note: If you wish your display to reach a tilt angle
of 0º to –1º, place a Round Washer (N) on the
lower mounting screw between the mounting rail
and the display. (Fig. 5)

Some displays have recessed mounting lands
which will require the use of a spacer. For these
displays, install the 3/4” Round Spacer (M) be-
tween the display and the rail. (Fig. 6). Note:
Align tab in spacer with slot in mounting rail.
