Important! For safety, this mount must be secured to two adjacent wood studs at least 16” apart.
2. Place the wall plate against the wall and level it using the bubble guide.
3. Mark the two locations (one per stud) on the wall where the mount will be secured. Be sure to use the
center of each stud.
4. Remove the wall plate and drill a 1/4“ (6 mm) pilot hole at each location using an electric drill.
Lag Bolt Washers (R) provided (Fig. 1).
6. Do not over-tighten the bolts and do not release the wall plate until all screws are secure.
Part 1b – Mounting the Wall Plate (Concrete)
1. Place the wall plate against the wall and level it using the bubble guide.
3. Place the wall plate aside and drill a hole at each location using a 3/8” (10 mm) masonry bit. Remove
any excess dust from the holes.
4. Insert one Concrete Anchor (P) into each hole. A hammer can be used to lightly tap the anchors into
place if necessary.

Hardware Kit
Part 2 – Attaching the Arms to the Display
Important! Use extra care during this part of the installation. If
possible, avoid placing your display facedown as it may damage the
viewing surface.
NOTE: Your mount comes with a selection of bolt diameters and
lengths to accommodate a wide variety of display models. Not all of
the hardware in the kit will be used.
1. Determine the correct length of bolt to use with your display by
A.
bolts (A, D, G, or J) from the hardware kit.
B. If your display has a curved or recessed back, you will use one
of the longer bolts (B, E, H, or K) along with a spacer (M or N).
2. Determine the correct diameter of bolt to use by carefully trying
one bolt each from Bags 1 - 4 of the hardware kit. Do not force
any of the bolts – if you feel resistance stop immediately and try
a smaller diameter bolt.
3. Attach the arms to the back of your display using the bolts identi-
(C, F, I, or L) (see Fig. 3 and 4).
A. If you are using the M4, M5, or M6 bolts (Bags 1, 2, and 3
respectively), you will also need to use the M6 Washers (O).
B. If you are using one of the longer bolts on a display with a
curved or recessed back, you will also use a Spacer (M or N).
Use the Smaller Spacer (M) for M4 and M5 bolts and the Large
Spacer (N) for M6 and M8 bolts.
4. Make sure all screws are secure, but do not over-tighten them.
