a choking hazard. Do not let children play
with any of these small parts! Keep children
away from the work area during installation.

CAUTION:
This product is intended to be installed by
professional installation contractors, or persons
familiar with the tools and methods required for
this installation. If you are not sure about your
ability to perform this installation, you must
contact a professional. MantelMount is not
responsible for damage or injury caused by
incorrect installation or improper use.
IMPORTANT:
MantelMount has four different adjustments
that must be made after the installation is
complete in order to operate properly.
!
CAUTION:
Do not let children operate, pull on, or hang from
MantelMount. Do not let children push
MantelMount upward to the top position - this will
cause the mount to slam against the wall due to
the upward force of the springs. Only a person
tall enough to control the mount all the way to
the top should operate MantelMount.
!
CAUTION:
Do not use this product in any way, or for any
purpose, that is not specifically described in these
instructions. MantelMount is not responsible for
damage or injury caused by incorrect installation
or improper use.
The main bolt adjusts the lifting force to
accommodate different TV weights. All TVs
within the weight range should stay in the UP
and DOWN positions when adjusted properly
The bottom travel stop is adjusted with two
screws so that the TV and mount do not
lower all the way into the mantel.
A slight amount of tilt in the UP position can
be added or removed by using one screw
inside the lifting mechanism.
The side-to-side swivel stops are adjusted
with two screws so that the TV does not
swivel into the mantel.

never exceed 110° F.
110°F
MAX.

more than 15 inches. MantelMount can not extend past a
C
mantel larger than 15 inches. Larger mantels will also
reduce the amount of side-to-side swivel.

The space above the mantle must be taller than the TV. The required space
depends on how far out the mantle extends. Refer to chart below and add this

Use a Vertical Brace {31} to determine if your television
1
is a flat back or an irregular back. An irregular back will
require spacers and longer screws to fill any spaces
between the Vertical Brace and the TV.
The Braces must be parallel to your television screen.
Choose the correct screw diameter and length for the TV.
2
Hand-thread screw combination into the TV to ensure
there is adequate thread engagement without hitting the
bottom of threaded insert. Use only minimum amount of
spacers (if required).

CAUTION:
Do Not use screws that are too long for the threaded
inserts of Television. This can damage internal components.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION: The Vertical Braces {31} are
4
a fixed distance (1 inch) higher than the bottom of the
Wall Plate {32}. This relationship can be used to calculate
unusual mounting situations such as centering the TV in
an alcove or mounting to a specific height on the wall.

If you measure the distance from the
bottom of your TV (or Sound Bar) to the
bottom of the Vertical Braces {31} you
will automatically know the distance
from the bottom of your TV to the
bottom of the Wall Plate {32}.
You can use this information to install
the Wall Plate on the wall in order to
locate the height of your TV to any
specific height you desire.
Example: If the Vertical Braces are 6
inches higher than the bottom of your
TV, then the Wall Plate will be 5 inches
higher than the bottom of your TV when
the installation is complete.
If you are installing above a mantel,
then your installation must still have the
additional clearance for downward
motion stated in the chart in Step 9

The Vertical Braces {31} are always mounted higher than
5
the bottom of the TV. However, the Brace Extenders {30}
will be mounted one of two ways:
Without a Soundbar - The Brace Extenders are installed
within a few inches above the bottom of the TV.
With a Sound Bar - The Brace Extenders are installed
below the TV with enough room to install the Sound Bar
onto the Horizontal Brace {34}.

than the bottom
of the TV

Insert the Brace Extenders {30} into the Vertical Braces {31}

and attach them both to the TV so the bottoms of the Vertical
Braces are higher than the bottom of the TV. Vertically
centered on the TV is ideal.
The bottom screws (or possibly all four screws) will pass
through both the Vertical Brace and the Brace Extenders.
