manual abstract
You will also need to leave space that you can use to mount the Monitor Arms (MA) onto the TV. Your TV may have come with a stand installed. If it did, it is okay to leave it on for now as long as it does not interfere with the monitor arm installation. If not, you need to determine the best way to hold or rest your TV safely so you can attach the monitor arms. Placing the TV face-down can damage the fragile screen or decorative frame. You may want to get a friend to assist you in holding the TV. If you are uncertain of the safest way to do this, call the TV manufacturer for advice. Step 1: Attaching the Adjustable Arms Your TV owner’s manual generally explains where the mounting location is on the TV. There are several typical mounting configurations for this size bracket. The mounting hole distances are measured in millimeters per the VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) specifications. Who is VESA? The Video Electronics Standards Association is an international nonprofit organization representing hardware, software, PC, display, and component manufacturers, cable and telephone companies, and service providers. VESA supports and sets industry-wide interface standards for the PC, workstation, and computing environments. Choosing which screws to use for your TV You’re probably wondering why so many screws came with this mount. The screw sizes follow the standards setup by VESA for each mounting configuration. Most monitors have the mounting holes flush with the back of the monitor. If yours is like this, you likely need to use short screws. Test several of the screws included in this kit to find the correct match for the holes in the back of your TV. Don’t use screws that are too long because they will not fully seat in the holes and can permanently damage the TV or mounting holes and cause the monitor to come loose. English Attaching the Monitor Arms After you’ve figured out which screws to use for your TV, attach each Monitor Arm (MA) to the back of the TV as shown in Figures 1 and 2. Make sure the the arms are oriented properly, with the adjustment levers facing toward the outer edge of the TV so you can reach them later. Also make sure that each Washer (R for M4 or M5 screws, or S for M6 or M8 screws) is placed between the screw and the monitor arm. Don’t place the washers between the R or S Selected Screw Adjustment Lever DETAILED VIEW Back of TV arms and the TV. Figure 1 MA English Some TVs have mounting holes that are recessed. This kit includes longer mounting screws and Spacers (D or E for M4 and M5 screws; P or Q for M6 and M8 screws) for such instances. The spacers are used to take up the space in the recessed hole as shown in Figure 2. The spacer you select must stick out past the back of the TV to ensure secure mounting. You don’t want the spacer to be loose. The Monitor Arms (MA) need to rest securely on the spacers. Test several of the spacers included in this kit to find the correct match for the recessed holes in the back of your TV.

Using an Stud electronic stud finder works best because it gives you an indication of where the right and left sides of the stud are. After you determine the stud locations, mark the right and left sides Figure 3 of each stud as shown in Figure 3. These markings help you determine the center location of each stud for proper drilling. English English Determining the location of the TV After the Monitor Arms (MA) have been attached to the TV, measure the distance from the center of the monitor arms to the top and bottom of the TV to help determine the desired height of the TV on your wall. The reason that you need to take these measurements is because many TVs do not have the mounting location centered on the back of the monitor. To determine the exact height you want to mount the brackets, use the convenient Installation Template (IT) rather than holding the TV in place while you do all this measuring. Always make sure to use a level when placing the template. Measure from the floor up as shown in Figure 4, and using a pencil, make small marks on the wall to help you determine the desired TV height.

Insert them only half-way, so that the locking arm can still be easily rotated. You must be careful to accurately drill the holes or else the screws may not line up with the holes in your Wall Plate (WP). Using the Installation Templat...
