Step 2: Install the Wall Mount (1) to the Wall
After determining the height of the wall mount and composition of your walls, use the
following installation instructions to install the wall mount to your wall – wood stud
frame, or concrete/masonry.
Wood Stud Walls:
A. Use a high quality stud nder to
locate two vertical studs nearest
where you want to install your
mount. Mark the edges of the studs
and then identify the exact stud
centers (Fig 1).
Step 3: Attach the Brackets to the Display
Important:
Use extra care during this portion of the installation. Avoid setting your display face
down if possible as it may damage the viewing surface. Protect the display surface
with a towel or blanket
Important:
Do not drill into mortar joints! Be sure to mount in solid parts at least 1" (25mm) from
the mortar lines. It is recommended to use a standard electric drill on slow to avoid
block breakage.

Concrete or Masonry Wall:
A. For an accurate installation, make sure the included bubble level is at room
temperature to allow for the bubble to move freely. Place the Wall Mount (1) against
the wall in the desired location and height determined in Step 1. Level it using the
included bubble level.
B. With the help of another person, mark the holes with a pencil for securing the
mount and set the assembly aside.
C. Drill a 2" deep hole at each of the marked locations using a 10mm (3/8") masonry
bit. Remove any excess dust from the holes.
D. Insert one Anchor (K) into each hole so that it is ush with the concrete surface. A
hammer can be used to lightly tap the anchors into place if necessary.
E. With help, hold the Wall Mount back into position with the slots over the pilot holes.
Check again that it’s level. Use your socket wrench to install the Mount with the lag
screws and washers . Do not over-tighten these screws.

A. Examine the back of your display. Consult your display’s manual or carefully test
the M4, M5, M6 or M8 bolts to nd the right diameter and length for your display’s
VESA mounting holes. For the correct diameter and length, you should not need to
force the bolts. If you feel any resistance, stop immediately to avoid damaging your
display and its internal components.
- If the back of your display is at and the mounting holes are ush with the surface,
you will use the shorter (12mm or 15mm) M4, M5, M6 or M8 bolts (Fig. 5a) from
the hardware kit.

Important:
This mount must be secured to two
adjacent 2" x 4" vertical wood studs
no more than 16" apart. These studs
must be capable of supporting the
combined weight of the mount and
the display.
16"
B. For an accurate installation, make
sure the included bubble level is at
room temperature to allow for the
bubble to move freely. Based on
your edge and center marks, hold the
Wall Mount (1) at the desired height
as determined in Step 1. With the
help of another person, align the wall
plate slots over your left and right
stud marks and level the Mount with
the integrated bubble level. With a
pencil, mark your drilling holes in the
center of each stud through the top
and bottom plate slots in the left,
and right studs (Fig 2). Set the Mount
aside.
E. Drill a pilot hole at each marked
location using an electric or
portable drill with a 5mm (3/16") bit.
F. With help, hold the Wall Mount back
into position with the slots over
the pilot holes. Check again that
it’s level. Use your socket wrench to
install the Mount with the lag screws
and washers (Fig. 3). Do not over-
tighten these screws.
J L
Use the M8x50mm Lag Screws (J) and corresponding
Washers (L) to intall the Wall Mount (1) to the studs.
You will need to use the included Socket Wrench or
your own socket wrench with 13mm socket.
Note: If the concrete wall
is covered by a layer of
plaster or drywall. The
wall anchor must pass
completely through the
layer to rest ush with the
concrete surface (Fig. 4).
