Use a high quality stud ﬁnder to locate a stud where you

wish to install your mount. Mark both edges of the stud to

help identify the exact center.

NOTE: You must use the center of

the stud to avoid cracking or splitting

the wood during installation.

Carefully remove the plastic covers

from the mount as shown (see Fig. 1).

Place the mount against the wall and

level it using the integrated bubble

level.

While another person holds the

mount in position, mark two

locations for securing the mount to

the wall (see Fig. 2).

Set the mount aside and drill a 6

mm (1/4”) pilot hole at each marked

location.

Place the mount against the wall

over the drilled holes, making sure

the arrow on the mount points up.

Attach the mount to the wall using

the lag bolts (A) and lag bolt washers (B) provided (see Fig. 3).

Do not over-tighten these bolts and do not release the

mount until all bolts are in place. Ensure that the mount

remains level after all bolts are secured.

OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT

Fig. 4

Fig. 5

NOTE: This mount comes with a selection of diﬀerent screw

diameters and lengths to accommodate a wide variety of

display models. Not all of the hardware in the kit will be used. If

you cannot ﬁnd the appropriate screw size in the kit provided,

consult the manufacturer of your display for more information.

Part 2 – Attaching the Mount 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.

Part 1B – Mounting to the Wall (Concrete)

(continued)

Set the mount aside and drill a 10 mm (3/8”) hole at each

marked location. Remove any excess dust from the holes.

Insert a concrete anchor (C) into

each hole so that it is ﬂush with the

concrete surface (see Fig. 5). A

hammer can be used to lightly tap

the anchors into place if necessary.

NOTE: If the concrete wall is

covered by a layer of plaster or

drywall, the concrete anchor must

pass completely through the layer

to rest ﬂush with the concrete

surface.

Place the mount against the wall

over the drilled holes, making sure

the arrow on the mount points up.

Attach the mount to the wall using

the lag bolts (A) and lag bolt

washers (B) provided (see Fig. 3). Do not over-tighten

these bolts and do not release the mount until all bolts

are in place. Ensure that the mount remains level after all

bolts are secured.

Carefully remove the plastic covers from the mount as

shown (see Fig. 1).

Place the mount against the wall in the desired location

and level it using the integrated bubble level.

While another person holds the mount in place, mark two

locations as shown for securing the mount to the wall(see

Fig. 4).

Attach the mount arms to the back of your display using

the screws identiﬁed in steps 1 and 2 (see Fig. 6):

If you are using the M4 or M6 screws you will need to use

the M6 washers (J). If you are using the M8 screws you

will need to use the M8 Washers (K).

If you are using the longer screws on a display with a

curved or recessed back, you may also need to use the

spacers (L). Use one spacer or two spacers stacked as

needed. Only use a spacer if necessary.

If the back of your display is ﬂat and the mounting holes

are ﬂush with the surface, you will use the shorter screws

(D, F or H) from the hardware kit.

If the back of your display is curved, has a protrusion, or if the

mounting holes are recessed, you will need to use the longer

screws (E, G or I) and may also need to use the spacers (L).

1Determine the correct length of screw to use by examining

the back of your display:

2Determine the correct diameter of screw to use by carefully

trying one of each size (M4, M6 and M8) from the hardware

kit. Do not force any of the screws – if you feel resistance

stop immediately and try a smaller diameter screw.

IMPORTANT! The latches must be closed and locked at

all times to prevent the display from being accidentally

knocked from the mount.

To change the tilt angle of your display, have one person

hold the display ﬁrmly in place while another person

loosens the tilt screws

using the S4 Allen key

(M) from the hardware

kit (see Fig. 8). Once

loosened, move your

display to the desired

position and then

re-tighten the screws

to lock the angle in

place.

Do not release

the display until both

tilt screws are fully

tightened and never remove the tilt screws.

Swivel adjustments can be made by grasping the display

ﬁrmly and moving it to the desired position. Be careful

that ﬁngers or cables do not get pinched when moving

the mount.

Level correction adjustments can be made by simply

rotating the display in

the needed direction. If

it is too diﬃcult to

move the display or if

the display does not

stay in position once

moved, adjust the

tension of the four nuts

located behind the

face plate using the S8

socket wrench (N)

provided in the

hardware kit (see Fig. 9). Adjust all four nuts evenly.

Do not

fully loosen or remove these nuts.

With the help of another person, carefully lift your display

and place it on the mount.

Do not release the display

until the mount arms have securely hooked onto the

mount.

Close the safety latch at the

bottom of each arm to prevent

the display from being lifted

from the mount. Each latch will

automatically lock when fully

closed

(see Fig. 7)

Re-attach the plastic covers that we removed in part 1.

Cables can be routed through the channel located on the

bottom of the mount to keep them organized and out of

the way.
