Usage Features:
- TV Screw Selection: The first step involves checking the TV hole pattern and selecting the appropriate TV screws (07) and washers (05). Only one screw size will fit the TV.
- Spacer Selection (Optional): Spacers (06) are provided for specific TV types:
- Not necessary for flat TVs with no obstructions.
- Recommended for TVs with inset holes, cable interference, or rounded backs to create extra space between the TV and the bracket.
- Securing TV Brackets: The TV brackets (03 and 04) are secured to the back of the TV using the selected screws (07) and washers (05), with spacers (06) if needed.
- Wall Plate Assembly: The left half of the wall plate (01) is secured to the right half (02) using a pre-assembled screw [S]. It's important to tighten until snug, but not overtighten.
- Wall Plate Installation:
- Wood Stud Option: Requires a stud finder, tape measure, pencil, drill, 5.5mm wood drill bit, and hammer (not included). Users locate wood studs, mark edge and center locations, position the wall plate, level it, mark holes, drill pilot holes, and then install the wall plate using lag bolts (A1) and washers (A2). Anchors (A3) are explicitly not to be used for wood stud installation.
- Solid Concrete or Concrete Block Option: Requires a tape measure, pencil, drill, 10mm concrete drill bit, hammer, and 13mm socket wrench (not included). Users position the wall plate, level it, mark holes, drill pilot holes (avoiding mortar), use a hammer to knock anchors (A3) flush into the wall, and then install the wall plate using lag bolts (A1), washers (A2), and anchors (A3).
- Mounting the TV:
- The TV, with attached brackets (03 and 04), is hung onto the wall plate (01 and 02).
- A locking mechanism is engaged by pulling a rope down and pressing the bottom of the TV into the wall plate until the latches lock the TV brackets. The rope is then released.
- Caution: This step is marked as "HEAVY!" and may require assistance.
- Removing the TV: To remove the TV from the wall plate, the rope is pulled down to release the latches.
Maintenance Features:
The manual does not explicitly detail maintenance features. However, implicit maintenance involves:
- Regularly checking the security of the wall plate and TV brackets.
- Ensuring all screws and bolts remain tightened to the specified snugness.
- Contacting customer service for replacement parts if any components become damaged or defective.
