NOTE: Selecting the ‘side-mount’ Spine location for the Swiveling
Brackets will position television close to rear of cabinet, but can
limit left-to-right swiveling. Selecting the ‘front-mount’ Spine
location will position television approx 1.5” closer to cabinet front
and will enable maximum left-to-right swiveling range.

Attach Horizontal Mounting Bracket (G) to installed
Swiveling Bracket Assemblies (E) using four (4)
5/16 x 3/8 in Screws (H) and four (4) Washers (I)
with the provided Allen Wrench (A).
NOTE: Slots along Horizontal Mounting Bracket
(G) must be at BOTTOM. Be sure to position each
Swiveling Bracket Assembly (E) so that each sits
within recessed portion of the Horizontal Mounting
Bracket (G) (Circled below).
