Attaching Wall Plate to Wooden Studs:

1a. Locate wall studs: Locate a proper place to mount by
using the included stud finder (Figure 1) It is recom-
mended that the center of the stud be used – and that
a nail be used to verify that a stud has been located.
The mount requires a minimum of two studs to ensure
proper and safe installation. The tilt arms will adjust
horizontally to the right and left up to 8 inches after
you determine the desired viewing location.
Attaching LevelMount to wall: Once the Wall Plate is
in the correct position on the studs, screw 1 Hex Screw
and 1 Hex Washer (P & Q) in the upper left mounting
hole of the Wall Plate into the stud. Do not screw too
tight until after all the screws are in. Drill pilot hole with
1/4 inch drill bit.
Using the Bubble Level as your guide (Figure 3, page
2), drive the 2nd screw into the opposite upper right
hand mounting hole of the Wall Plate. Now tighten
both screws, proceed to drive the remaining 4 screws
into the studs as seen in figure 2, page 2.
