Some displays will require the use of a spacer between the mounting head and the
back of the display because the display has a recessed mounting area or a curved back.
In this case, use the long screws in pouches G, H or I, along with one or two spacers, as
required, (7) for each screw.
Secure Mounting Head to back of display using the selected mounting screws (9.1) and
spacers (9.2) if required. (Fig 9)

Step 1 — Determine the Mounting Location
To provide maximum viewing flexibility, the OmniMount Wishbone Series cantilever mounts are capable of a wide ra nge
of motion, which allows the display to be positioned f or vi ewing from many different angles.
When selecting the mounting location for the display, make sure there is adequate space on all sides of the display, considering the dimensions (H x W) of your particular display model.
Caution: NEVER force screws into the display, as damage may occur. NEVER use
an electric drill to secure the screws.

Negative Tilt
CAUTION: WHEN REMOVING THE DISPLAY MAKE SURE THE HEAD IS LOCKED
IN THE NEGATIVE TILT POSITION, OTHERWISE INJURY COULD OCCUR.
Fig. 10
Carefully lower the display into position on the Mounting Arm. Make sure to align
the slots on the Mounting Head with flanges on the end of the Mounting Arm.
While holding the display in position, gently pu ll the bottom of the display forward
to create enough space to insert the Clamp Plate ( 10.1) and Tens ion Screws (10.2).
(Fig 10)
Insert and tighten enough to prevent the screen from moving easily.
10.2
Using an Adaptor Plate
If your display is not VESA compliant, you will need to use an adaptor plate b etween your display and the CL—M. Attach
the adaptor plate and mount the display as per the adaptor plate instructions.
10.1
Step 2 — The Installation Template
The Installation Template is designed to make the installation of the CL-M faster, easier and more accurate. The template
also includes a built in dust channel to reduce the clean up chores from mounting the CL-M.
Assembling the Dust Channel:
Locate the supplied mounting template. (Fig. 1)
Fold the dust collector along the marked lines:
a. Fold main channel up.
b. Crease and fold the tab sections inward.
c. Fold outer portion of tab around the back of the guide,
d. and then insert tab into slot.
Fig. 1
Step 3 — Mounting to the Wall
Follow the instructions based upon your mounting surface:
3a Wooden Stud
3b Concrete/Masonry
3c Cinder Block
If an adapter plate is required, OmniMount recommends the UA-M or model specific Adapter Plate for the CL-M
Step 6 — Using Cable Management
The Wishbone series cantilevers include a cable management function, where cables can be routed along the length of the
arm assembly.
To install cables, you’ll first need to remove the cable covers. Using a Phillips Head sc rewdriver on the Retaining Screw
(11.1) and pushing on the Retaining Nuts (11.2) with your finger, remove the screw assembly (Fig. 12). Remove the Cable
Covers (11.3) and set all parts aside.

Step 3a — Mounting to Wooden Studs
The CL-M wall plate can be mounted on a single wooden stud.
Using an electronic stud finder (Fig 2), locate the center of th e wooden stud at the desired mounting locati on.
Mark the stud center position directly onto the wall. Extend the stud center line, and then draw a horizontal
line where you wish the center of the screen to be located. Measure and mark the center position of this horizontal line.
Insert supplied thumbtack into center mark on template. Rem ov e th e tape strip from the back of the guide. Remove the
four square perforations above center hole to help alig n the template with the center mark of the stud. Pin the template to
the center mark. Using a bubble level, level the guide, and then press the adhesive backing against the wall to hold the
guide in place.
Note: Depending upon the roughness of the surface, you may need to hold the template in place with an additional application of tape or blue painter’s tape.
Using a 3/16” (5 mm) drill bit, drill 3 pilot holes 3.0” (76 mm) deep into the center of the studs, through the circular cutout sections of the installation template.
Note: For best results from the dust channel, press and hold the temp late against the wall about 2” (50 mm) from where
you are drilling.
Carefully remove the guide from the wall, and discard. Note: Be sure to hold the guide in an upright position so as not to
spill the collected dust.
Fig. 2

Step 3b — Mounting to Concrete/Masonry
The CL-M wall plate can be mounted directly to concrete/masonry walls.
WARNING
•
NEVER drill into mortar joints!
• Concrete must be 2000 PSI density minimum.
Fig. 3
Remove the tape strip from the back of the template, and place the template in the desired location. Using a bubble level,
hold the template in a level position an d then press the adhesive backing against the w all to hold the guide in place.
Note: Depending upon the roughness of the surface, you may need t o hold the template in place with an additional application of tape or blue painter’s tape.
Using a 1/2” (13 mm) masonry drill bit, drill 3 mounting holes 3.5” (89 mm) deep into the concrete/masonry surface. Drill
through the mounting hole cut-out sections of the template.
Note: For best results from the dust channel, press and hold the template against the wall about 2” (50 mm) from where
you are drilling.
Carefully remove the guide from the wall, and dis card. Note: Be sure to hold the guide in an upright position so as not to
spill the collected dust.
Insert wall anchors into the mounting holes, and lightly tap them flush to the wall with a hammer. (Fig. 3)
IMPORTANT
Masonry anchors MUST be seated firmly against the concrete or masonry. If mounting to a masonry wall covered with drywall/
plaster, counter bore a hole through the drywall/plaster around the mounting hole location, so that the anchor can be seated
directly against the concrete or masonry.
Step 4 — Mounting to the Wall
Remove the cantilever assembly from the b ox.
Using the Large supplied hex wrench, remove the Shoulder Screws (4.1) from the
Shoulder Assembly (4.2). Separate the Shoulder Assembly from the Wall Plate
(located behind the Assembly). (Fig. 4)
Fig. 5
5.1
Carefully hold the Wall Plate (5.1) in position over the drilled mounting holes, and then securely bolt the wall plate to the wall with the supplied 5/16” lag bolts (2). See Fig 5.
4.2
IMPORTANT
Tighten lag bolts so that wall plate is firmly attached to wall, but DO NOT over tighten. The Lag bolts can
be damaged by over tightening, which greatly reduces their holding power. Final tightening of lag should
always be done by hand, with a ratchet wrench and socket.

Step 3c — Mounting to Cinder Block
The CL-M wall plate can mounted directly to cinder block walls.
WARNING
•
Cinder Block must meet ASTM C-90 specifications.
• Mount to solid portion of block, generally 1” from the sides.
• NEVER drill into mortar joints!
• Use standard drill set on slow speed/ high torque setting. DO NOT use hammer drill on cinder block.
• Verify that you have a minimum of 1 3/8” of actual concrete thickness in the mounting hole, before inserting the wall anchor.
Remove the tape strip from the back of the template. Using a bubble level, hold the template in a level position and then
press the adhesive backing against the wall to hold the guide in place.
Note: Depending upon the roughness of the surface, you may need t o hold the template in place with an additional application of tape or blue painter’s tape.
Using a 1/2” (13 mm) drill bit, drill 3 mounting holes 3.5” (89 mm) deep int o the cinder block surface. Drill through the
mounting hole cut-out sections of the template.
Note: For best results from the dust channel, press and hold the template against the wall about 2” (50 mm) from where
you are drilling.
Carefully remove the guide from the wall, and dis card. Note: Be sure to hold the guide in an upright position so as not to
spill the collected dust.
Insert wall anchors into the mounting holes, and lightly tap them flush to the wall with a hammer. (Fig 3)
IMPORTANT
Masonry anchors MUST be seated firmly against the concrete or masonry. If mounting to a wall covered with drywall/plaster, counter bore a
hole through the drywall/plaster around the mounting hole location, so that the anchor can be seated directly against the concrete or masonry.
With the Wall Plate (6.1) securely mounted to t he wall, place the Shoul-
6.1
der Assembly (6.2) over it and align the Shoulder Screw Holes on the
Assembly with the Corresponding Holes on the Wall Plate. Insert
Shoulder Screws (6.3) and tighten by hand. (Fig. 6)

Step 5 — Attaching the Display
Fig. 7
It’s easy to mount a flat panel display to the CL-M using the Lift N’ Lock mounting system. First, remove the Mounting Head (7.1) from the end of the arm assembly. To do this,
use the Small supplied hex wrench to remove the Tension Screws (7.2) from Clamp Plate
(7.3), and then slide the Clamp Plate out of the Mounting Head. Set these parts aside for
later. Next lift the Mounting Head straight up off the end of the arm assembly. See Fig. 7.
The Mounting Head of the CL-M is VESA
compliant, and supports the following VESA
Patterns (Fig. 8):
Fig. 8
Note: If your display is not VESA compliant, proceed to the section entitled Using an Adaptor Plate.
1: VESA 100 (100mm x 100mm)
2: VESA 200 (100mm x 200mm)
3: VESA 200 (200mm x 200mm)
The Mounting Head can be attached directly to VESA compliant flat panel displays, using the
appropriate Hardware. Consult the supplied Hardware Cross Reference list, and locate the
required mounting screws (A-I) for your display.
