Page 5: Installation Instructions
RF-HTVMM170C Installation instructions Step 1 - Determine whether your TV has a flat back or an irregular or obstructed back Carefully place your TV screen face-down on a cushioned, clean surface to protect the screen from damages and scratches. If your TV has a table-top stand attached, remove the stand. See the documentation that came with your TV for instructions. - Page 6 STEP 2 - Select screws, washers, and spacers Select the hardware for your TV (screws, washers, and spacers). A limited number of TVs come with mounting hardware included. (If there are screws that came with the TV, they are almost always in the holes on the back of the TV.) If you don't know the correct length of the mounting screws your TV requires, test various sizes by hand threading the screws.
- Page 7 RF-HTVMM170C STEP 3 - Option 1: Attaching the vertical brackets to TVs with a flat back Align the holes you noted on the vertical brackets (1) with the screw holes on the back of your TV. Make sure the brackets are level.
- Page 8 STEP 3 - Option 2: Attaching the vertical brackets to TVs with irregular or obstructed backs Place the 2.5 mm (7) or 22 mm spacers (8) over the screw holes on the back of the TV. Align the vertical brackets (1) over the spacers (7 or 8), then place the washers (6) over the holes in the vertical brackets and insert the screws (13, 14, 15, or 16) through the washers, vertical brackets, and spacers.
- Page 9 RF-HTVMM170C STEP 4 - Attaching the horizontal brackets Slide the horizontal brackets (2) through the slots in the vertical brackets (1), as shown below. Make sure that the brackets are centered. Secure the horizontal brackets (2) to the vertical brackets (1) with the M4 x 18 screws (17).
- Page 10 STEP 5 - Determine wall-mount location NOTE: • For more detailed information on determining where to drill your holes, visit our online height-finder at: http://mf1.bestbuy.selectionassistant.com/index.php/heightfinder • Your TV should be high enough so your eyes are level with the middle of the screen. Normally, 40 to 60 inches from the ground.
- Page 11 RF-HTVMM170C STEP 6 - Option 1: Installing on a wood stud wall Note: Drywall covering the wall must not exceed 5/8" (16 mm). Locate the stud. Verify the center of the stud with an edge-to-edge stud finder. Make sure that the distance between the studs is 16 inches.
- Page 12 Align the wall plate (3) with the pilot holes, insert the lag screws (18) through the holes in the wall plate assembly, then tighten the lag screws only until they are firm against the wall plate assembly. CAUTION: Avoid potential injuries or property damage! DO NOT over-tighten the lag screws (18).
- Page 13 RF-HTVMM170C STEP 6 - Option 2: Installing on a solid concrete or concrete block wall CAUTION: To prevent property damage or personal injury, never drill into the mortar between the blocks. Mount wall plate directly onto the concrete surface. Note: Minimum solid concrete thickness: 8 in (203 mm). Minimum concrete block size: 8 x 8 x 16 in.
- Page 14 Align the wall plate (3) with the anchors, insert the lag screws (18) through the holes in the wall plate assembly, then tighten the lag screws only until they are firm against the wall plate. CAUTION: Avoid potential injuries or property damage! DO NOT over-tighten the lag screws (18).
- Page 15 RF-HTVMM170C STEP 7 - Attach the arm to the wall plate Hang the arm (4) onto the wall plate (3) by first hooking the top support, then lowering the bottom of the arm into place. Lock the arm (4) to the wall plate (3) with the securement screws (19), using the hex key (20).
- Page 16 STEP 8 - Attach the TV to the arm To make it easier to attach your TV to the wall plate, position the arm (4) so the elbow is bent 90 degrees and pressed against the wall. Hang the TV onto the arm (4) by first hooking the top support, then lowering the bottom of the TV into place.
- Page 17 RF-HTVMM170C STEP 9 - Making adjustments and managing cables The following adjustments are available by loosening the tilt control knob. NOTE: Once your TV is in place, tighten the tilt tension knob to prevent unwanted movement. Fully articulating arm, with three pivot points, allows a choice of viewing positions.
