Safety information and specifications
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: Do not use this product for
any purpose not explicitly specified by
Rocketfish.
Improper installation may cause
property damage or personal injury. If
you do not understand these directions, or have doubts
about the safety of the installation, contact Customer
Service or call a qualified contractor. Rocketfish is not
responsible for damage or injury caused by incorrect
installation or use.
The included hardware is designed for use on vertical walls
constructed of wood studs or solid concrete. A wood stud
wall is defined as consisting of a minimum of 2x4 wooden
studs (2” wide by 4” deep) with a maximum of 5/8”
drywall. The included hardware is not designed for use with metal studs or cinderblock walls. If you’re uncertain
about the construction of your wall, then please consult a qualified contractor or installer for assistance. For a
safe installation, the wall you are mounting to must support 4 times the weight of the total load. If not, then the
surface must be reinforced to meet this standard. The installer is responsible for verifying that the wall structure
and hardware used in any installation method will safely support the total load.
The weight of your TV must not exceed 70 lbs. (31.8 kg). Rocketfish recommends that the wall be capable of
supporting five times the weight of your TV and wall mount combined, or approximately 350 lbs. (159 kg).
This product contains small items that could be a choking hazard if swallowed. Keep these items away from
young children!

Installation instructions
STEP 1 - Determine whether you need the optional VESA adapters
1 Carefully place your TV screen face-down on a cushioned, clean surface to protect the screen from damages
and scratches.
2 If your TV has a table-top stand attached, remove the stand. See the documentation that came with your TV
for instructions.
3 Measure the distance between the mounting holes on the back of your TV.
4 If the distance equals 7.9” (200 mm), you will need to attach the VESA adapters (E) before proceeding to
Step 2.
OR
If the distance is greater than 7.9” (200 mm), the VESA adapters (E) are not needed and you can proceed
directly to Step 2.
5 To attach the optional VESA adapters (E), insert the panhead screws (M-M) into the recessed holes of the
VESA adapters (E) and through the vertical rails (B), then insert the nylock nuts (M-N) into the back of the
vertical rail and thread them onto the screws and tighten. Make sure that the flat side of the adapter will be
against the back of the TV when assembled.

STEP 2 - Determine whether your TV has a flat back or an irregular or obstructed
back
1 Temporarily lay the vertical rails (B) on the back of your TV.
2 Align the screw holes in the vertical rails or VESA adapters with the mounting screw holes on your TV.
3 Identify which type of back your TV may have:
• Flat back: The vertical rails lay flush against the back of your TV and do not block any jacks. You do
not need spacers when assembling the wall mount.
• Obstructed back: A vertical rail blocks any of the jacks on the back of your TV. You will need spacers
when assembling the wall mount.
• Irregularly-shaped back: There is a gap between a vertical rail and some part of the back of your TV.
You will need spacers when assembling the wall mount.
4 Remove the vertical rails.
