RF-TVMP40 TV Wall Mount
STEP 5 - Determine wall-mount location
Choose the TV location with the arm stowed and extended. Note that the TV will move side-to-side when
pushing it into and pulling it out from the wall as well as lifting it up and lowering it down. This step requires an
understanding of this products Range of Motion (see section RANGE OF MOTION on page 12).
Note:

• 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.
When your TV is in a position closest to the wall and the arm assembly is horizontal, the center of your TV will be
17" to the left or the right of the center of the wall plate.
1 Measure the distance from the bottom of your TV to the middle (half of the height of the TV). This is
measurement a.
2 Measure the distance from the floor to where you want the bottom of the TV to be positioned on the wall
when the Arm Assembly is horizontal. Keep in mind that this TV Mount allows for 17" of travel horizontally
and 10" of travel vertically from the center of the wall plate. Your TV should be mounted in a position that
will not cause it to come in contact with furniture, or items placed on top of furniture (like a Blu-ray player or
cable box). This is measurement b.
3 Add a + b. This measurement is the height where you want the center of your TV to be.
4 Measure 17" to the left OR right of the a + b measurement position. This will be the location for the center of
the wall plate. This is measurement c.
5 Use a pencil to mark this spot on the wall.
