•
Refer to the instruction manual provided with the TV you are going to install on this product. It includes additional information for
the mounting, ventilation and suitable mounting location. Compare the technical data and requirements to make sure that this
product is suitable for your TV.
•
IMPORTANT! Choose the right place to install the wall plate.
•
For safety reasons make sure the wall can support at least 4 times the weight of the TV and mount. The manufacturer takes no
responsibility for failure caused by walls of insufficient strength.
•
The maximum wall covering thickness; such as gypsum drywall, lath, plastic, etc. should not be greater than 0.63" / 16 mm
(wood stud walls) or 0.4" / 10 mm (masonry walls).
•
Do not mount to drywall alone.
•
Examine the wall you want to install the mount to before you start installation. Make sure that there are no hidden power supply
cables, gas pipes, water pipes or other objects hidden in the wall that might be hit by the drill, screws or other hardware.
•
For wood stud walls: This mount is designed to be mounted to 2" x 4" (51 mm x 102 mm) and Grade No. 2, wood studs that
are spaced 16" (406 mm) on center. Wood studs should be
2" x 4" (51 mm x 102 mm), at minimum: 1.5" x 3.5" (38 mm x 89 mm).
•
For concrete walls: The bracket must be installed into a solid concrete wall. Make sure the concrete wall is suited for Standard
Test Method for Compression Strength of Cylindrical Concrete Specimens, ASTM C39, or equivalent.
•
This product should never be mounted to metal framing studs or bricks.
•
If the mounting bracket will be attached to any structure other than specified in this manual, only a licensed professional
contractor/installer should perform this installation. The supporting structure must support, at minimum, four times the combined
weight of the mounting bracket and TV. It is the responsibility and liability of the installer to ensure the suitability of the supporting
structure.
•
Never install into furniture! This can lead to instability resulting in personal injuries and/or damage.
•
Always support the TV with your hands when making adjustments. Make sure to tighten screws and other connections well, but
do not over-tighten them. Never use an electric tool to tighten screws and nuts.
•
Once you have mounted the bracket and TV, ensure they are sufficiently secure and safe to use.
