Need help?Do you have a question about the LG WB20GB and is the answer not in the manual?
This document is an installation manual for an LG Wall Mount Support, models WB20GB and WB20GD. It provides comprehensive instructions and safety precautions for professional installers and users to ensure proper and safe installation of an LG TV onto a wall.
The LG Wall Mount Support is designed to securely attach an LG TV to a vertical wall, providing a stable and space-saving viewing solution. The wall mount allows the TV to be positioned close to the wall, and in some cases, offers the ability to pull the TV forward to access cables or adjust its position. The system includes anchors and screws specifically designed for concrete walls, ensuring a robust installation. It also incorporates features like guide paper and guide labels to assist in accurate positioning and alignment during installation. The design emphasizes safety and stability, with clear warnings against improper installation methods.
The installation process is broken down into several steps, starting with watching an installation video for a visual guide. Users are advised to wear gloves for safety during the process. A key initial step involves releasing the VESA screw on the TV (specifically for the 75NANO99 model) before proceeding with the wall mount installation.
The manual details how to prepare the wall for installation, emphasizing the importance of checking the wall material and using the provided anchors and screws. It explicitly states that the product should only be installed on crack-free concrete walls and warns against installation on wood studs, plasterboard, paper, or medium-density fiberboard (MDF) walls without proper reinforcement. For concrete walls, specific drill bit sizes (Ø 8 mm) and drilling depths (80-100 mm) are provided. The screws must be tightened to a specified torque range (45-60 kgf/cm or 39.06-52.08 lbf/in) to ensure secure fastening.
A "guide paper" is provided to help determine the TV's installation site on the wall, ensuring it is level and correctly centered. "Guide labels" are also used to mark the approximate position for combining the TV with the wall mount support.
The wall mount support itself is designed to be pulled forward, allowing for easier attachment of the TV and subsequent cable management. Once the TV is hooked onto the support, safety pins on both sides of the wall mount must be slid to the closed position to secure the TV and prevent accidental movement or falling.
After the TV is attached and secured, the manual instructs users to gently push the TV until it makes close contact with the wall, ensuring it is completely flush. If the TV is not perfectly horizontal after installation, it can be manually adjusted by pushing its sides.
A notable feature is the ability to connect additional cables while the TV is already mounted. The TV can be pulled forward from the wall, providing access to the rear for cable connections. The manual highlights the use of two cable holders to organize and align cables, ensuring they remain within the designated area to prevent interference with the TV's attachment to the wall.
While the manual primarily focuses on installation, it implicitly covers maintenance through its emphasis on proper installation and handling.
Safety Precautions: The document stresses the importance of professional installation and advises against individuals attempting to install or move the product themselves due to potential safety risks and personal injury. It also warns against hanging power or signal cables from the back of the TV, as this can cause damage, leading to fire, electrical shock, or product malfunction.
Stability and Impact Avoidance: Users are cautioned not to install the product in unstable sites that cannot withstand its weight, as this could lead to the product falling and causing personal injury. Similarly, hanging on the product or subjecting it to severe impact after installation is prohibited to prevent the TV from falling.
Cleaning and Environmental Considerations: The manual advises against wiping the product with a wet towel or using heating equipment or humidifiers near the installed product. This is to prevent liquid or vapor from entering the product, which could cause fire, electric shock, or malfunction.
Cable Management: The inclusion of cable holders and instructions for organizing cables contributes to long-term maintenance by preventing cable damage from friction with the wall and ensuring a tidy setup. It also allows for easier access and management of cables if they need to be replaced or reconfigured in the future. The manual also suggests purchasing commercially available cable management solutions for further organization.
Regular Checks (Implied): Although not explicitly stated as a maintenance step, the emphasis on ensuring safety pins are closed and fixed after installation implies a need for users to periodically check these mechanisms to ensure the TV remains securely mounted. The instruction to ensure the TV is in close contact with the wall after installation also suggests that users should be aware of any gaps that might indicate instability.
By adhering to the detailed installation instructions and safety warnings, users can ensure the longevity and safe operation of their LG TV with the wall mount support, minimizing the need for corrective maintenance.
