Clear the area of all furniture and electronics. You will need some elbow room to mount the TV. You also want to make sure that your electronic devices are unplugged, covered, and out of way because you are about to start drilling holes, and that is likely to make dust.

- Page 9 Figure 1 DETAILED VIEW Back of TV F, R, or S Selected Screw Use spacers in situations when the arms do not fit firmly against the back of the television, such as when the back of the television is curved, contains larger recessed mounting holes, or some other obstruction is in the way.
- Page 10 Using the 8190 Adapter Plates Some TVs have larger mounting configurations (200 x 200, 200 x 150, or 200 x 100), and the Monitor Plate (MP) alone cannot reach these holes. If this is the case for your TV, you need to use the included 8190 Adapter Plates (AP).
- Page 11 Step 2: Securing the Wall Mount Finding a wood stud to mount to Using a stud finder, determine the exact location of the stud to which you want to attach the wall mount. Using an electronic stud finder works best because it gives you an indication of where the right and left sides of the stud are.
- Page 12 Determining the location of the TV After the Monitor Plate (MP) has been mounted to the TV, you can now measure the distance from the bracket holes to the top and bottom of the TV to help determine the desired height of the TV on your wall. The reason that you need to take these measurements is because many monitors do not have the mounting location centered on the back of the monitor.

Page 13: Using The Installation Template
Using the Installation Template The Installation Template (IT) included in this kit helps you select the correct positions for drilling the holes for the TV mounting. Figure 7 shows what the holes on the template represent. Figure 7 SECURING HOLE “c” DRILL HOLE “a”... - Page 14 When mounting to a wood stud Line up the Installation Template (IT) with the stud markings to ensure the proper location for your drill holes. After you have the position selected, tape the template in place securely on the wall with masking tape so that you don’t damage the wall surface. Use a level to double check that the screw holes will line up vertically as shown in Figure 8.
- Page 15 When mounting to solid concrete, bricks, or cinder block Figure 9 This kit includes the TOGGLER ® brand ALLIGATOR ® Anchors (U) for mounting in concrete walls, brick, or cinder block. These patented anchors are the finest solid wall anchors on the market and offer excellent holding ability when properly installed.
- Page 16 Figure 10 After the holes are drilled, remove the template and place the ALLIGATOR ® Anchor (U) into the concrete wall as shown in Figure 10. After you have prepared the two holes for mounting the Wall Mount (WM), screw the two bottom Lag Bolts (T) three-quarters of the way into the holes.

Step 3: Mounting the TV Preparing the security screws You need to mount the Monitor Plate (MP) onto the Wall Mount (WM). To ensure it does not come off, you use two screws to secure the parts together. You have two choices of screw sizes. - Page 18 Figure 12B (For TVs over 20") PROFILE VIEW (DETAIL) Tip of Screw should be flush with bracket. Don’t forget those wires! If your audio, video, and power cables will not be accessible after you mount the TV, you need to make those connections now. Before doing this, however, make sure all TV and component power cords are not plugged into any electrical outlets and your audio and video equipment is turned off.
- Page 19 Mounting the TV Before you begin this step, be sure to tighten the Tilt Screw on the Wall Mount (WM) completely using a Phillips-head screwdriver. Make sure that the tilting component is straight. This step makes your mount stable and easy to assemble. When you’re ready to put the Monitor Plate (MP) onto the wall mount, get a friend or an assistant to help you lift the TV and guide the monitor plate onto the wall mount, as shown in Figure 13.
- Page 20 After you’re confident it is properly installed and the TV is securely mounted to the wall, you need to tighten the Security Screws (X or W) using a Phillips-head screwdriver as shown in Figure 13. You really need two people for this part of the task: one person can hold the TV steady while the other turns the security screws into the Wall Mount (WM).
