Upright adjustment and mounting

Firstly, place the screen face down on a flat suitable surface, such as carpeted floor.
Take care not to damage the screen.

Flat Surface

Secure the uprights in place on
the back of the screen. Make sure
to get both uprights as level as
possible so the screen is square
when mounted to the wall.

Installation: Stage 2

Once flat, lower the uprights onto the
back of the screen and bolt down to the
mounting points using suitable bolts.
Keep the uprights symmetrical in order to
maintain a central position for the screen.

Mounting the uprights to the screen

If the screen has mounting points which are recessed, it will be necessary to
use some of the provided spacers, in order to attach the uprights to the screen.

Installation: Stage 3

It is also recommended that a minimum of 15mm of bolt thread is screwed into
the case of the screen, without bottoming out.

It is also recommended that a
minimum of 15mm of bolt thread
is screwed into the case of the
screen, without bottoming out.

It may be necessary to use spacers even if
the mounting points are not recessed. For
example, if the back panel is not flat, or to
allow for easier electrical connection.

Screen positioning

If when the frame is placed on the back of the screen,

Installation: Stage 5

the overlaying slots don't appear to locate with the bolts
on the uprights, it may be necessary to re-position the
uprights or move them left or right.

Take this opportunity to measure the
distance from the top of the screen
down to the top mounting holes of
the wall plate. This will be useful
when gauging the position of the
screen, and hence the position of
the holes in the wall.

PS60 - Plasma Swivel Bracket

Fitting the Bracket to the Wall

Firstly, remove the bracket from the rear of the screen. Make sure that the uprights
are still left connected to the rear of the plasma screen.

Bearing in mind the relative distance from the top of
the plasma screen to the top mounting holes, place the
wall plate against the wall, and mark where the holes
need to be on the wall. Take care with making sure the
wall plate is level.

Installation: Stage 6

Bracket Position
It is important to remember the limitations of the bracket when deciding on its position on the wall.
The bracket enables a screen to rotate through a maximum of 45 degree clockwise and 45 degree
anti-clockwise from initially being parallel to the wall behind.

Wall Fixings
There are no wall fixings supplied with this product.
The wall plate has 10mm diameter holes for the fixings. Therefore, it is recommended that fixings
of minimum 8mm diameter are used.
It is recommended that either rawlbolts, large diameter plastic wall bolts, or resin anchors are used
to fix this product to the wall.
Suitability of fixings will depend on the type of wall the product will be fixed to.

Fixing the Screen & Uprights to the Frame

With the bracket sitting flat against the wall, hook the
screen uprights over the cross members. Make sure
to get the screen symmetrical about the bracket and
then lock into position by tightening the set screws on
the uprights

Installation: Stage 7

Usage­Take care when using the PS60 bracket.
If there ever seems to be a fault of some
kind with the mechanism, please consult
Future Automation immediately.
Do not force, or apply excessive loads to
any part of the mechanism.

If the wall bracket is loose when operating you
can add more friction by adjusting the pair of
grub screws located in the sliding collar.
