STEP 3A - MOUNTING TO A WALL WITH WOOD STUDS

The mount can be attached to walls with wood studs. The wall
covering (drywall, lath, plaster, etc.) may not be thicker than 1/2”.

If you are mounting on a concrete wall, go to Step 3B on page 6.

1. Use the electronic stud finder to locate two studs in the wall.
The studs should be approximately 16” apart. Use the pencil to
mark the areas of the wall where the studs are located.

2. Hold the mount against the wall, using the pencil marks as a
guide. Ensure the slots in the mount line up with the studs.

Use the built-in level to level the mount.

When the mount is level, hold it in place and use the pencil to
mark the areas inside the slots where bolt holes will be drilled.
Ensure the marks you make are over the studs.

Instead of holding the mount against the wall, you can use
the included template. Please note: To level the template,
you will need a level (not included).

labeled LAG.

Place the mount against the wall, and use a wrench to insert the
lag bolts and washers into the holes you just drilled. You can

1. Gently place the TV on the floor screen-down. You may want to
place a rug or blanket beneath the screen to prevent scratches.

In your TV’s User Guide, find the size of your TV’s mounting holes.
These will be listed as M4, M5, M6, or M8.

Open the pouch labeled with the size that matches your TV’s
mounting holes. If you do not have the User Guide, or the size is
not listed, you may have to try several sizes until you find one
that fits.

2. Place the brackets against the mounting holes as shown.

Use the CENTER mark on the bracket to align the center of the
bracket with the horizontal center of your TV,

3. Using the screwdriver, insert the screws, star washers, and
washers as shown.

Because each TV is different, your VIZIO TV mount includes
screws of different lengths. Use screws that can be inserted
completely.

Do not use a short screw if a longer screw can be
inserted completely.

If your TV has a curved back, or if your TV has
protruding components, place spacers between the
brackets and the mounting holes. The spacers are in
the pouch labelled MISC.

4. To keep the pull-down handles accessible, they should hang near
the bottom edge of the TV.

To adjust the pull-down handles, use a screwdriver to
remove the 2 philips-head screws from the bracket as shown.

5. Reattach the pull-down handles so that they hang near the edge
of the TV.

The TV brackets are mounted.
