Simple troubleshooting

Found a problem you can’t fix? Don’t panic… try these!
Problem Cause Solution
‘There are stains on the arms of the wall mount’
‘My TV does not remain horizontal levelled, with moving/turning it’
‘I don’t have the right bolts for my TV!’
The stains are caused by the paper pulp interior in the box. We decided to reduce the amount of plastic in the packaging and therefore there is no plastic bag around the product anymore to prevent from some paper dust on the product. So, these stains might occur, unfortunately.
When you level your TV and tighten the thumbnut by hand, it might not be tight enough to stay level.
The world of TV technology is always changing – it can be hard to keep up sometimes. So, it might be the case that the correct bolt size is not included… you’re just too advanced!
The stains are easy to remove with a cloth.
Level the TV with a spirit level and tighten the thumbnut thoroughly with a 4 mm allen key, instead of by hand.
Just ask Vogel’s Consumer Care to request a service kit, and we’ll send everything you need. Click here to contact Vogel's Consumer Care.
‘I have a lot of leftover bolts, is something wrong?’
‘My wall screws have snapped!’
No, you did it very well! You only need 4 bolts to install the mount to your TV. Because of all the different types of TVs, we have included the most common sizes for the most sold TVs.
You might not be drilling deep enough… or your drill could be too blunt, so that the hole is too narrow and the screw gets stuck.
TVM 3460/3660 Series - English 21
Don’t waste the other bolts, save them!
You can use them for another TV when you buy a new one or use it elsewhere.
Use another hole in the wall plate to fix the wall mount to the wall. Make sure you use a sharp drill of the correct size. Use the size of the screw as indication of the depth to be drilled.
