Installation
The following steps must be performed by two
people.
Determine the desired viewing location. Use a stud
nder to locate two studs closest to the viewing
location.
Once the studs have been located, use a pencil to
mark the centre of each stud.
NB. A minimum of two (2) wall studs must be used in
the installation of this product.
When determining viewing height, the centre of
the TV should be at eye level while sitting in an
upright position. When using the at panel as room
decoration, raise it to the point where the bottom of
the screen is at eye level while sitting and the top is
eye level when standing.
Drill a pilot hole at the marked location using a
power drill and 1/4”drill bit.
NB. Only use 1/4”drill bit when drilling the pilot
holes.
Two people must perform the installation. One
person must hold the mount whilst the other person
levels the mount. The mount must remain in place
while the mounting hardware is tightened .
Level the mount.
Align the mounting slot with the drilled hole.
Insert and tighten one 5/16” x 3”lag bolt and at
washer. Tighten using a 1/2”socket wrench. Do not
completely tighten the lag bolt at this time.
NB. Do not overtighten lag bolts when attaching the
mount to the wall. Improper installation may result
in personal injury or damage to property.

Installation
The following steps must be performed by two
people.
NB. If concrete wedge anchors are not used and you
decide on other mounting hardware, please follow
the installation instructions as provided with the
hardware.
Determine the desired viewing location.
Place the wall mount into position against the wall
and level the mount.
Mark o four holes to be used for securing the
mount.
When determining viewing height, the centre of
the TV should be at eye level while sitting in an
upright position. When using the at panel as room
decoration, raise it to the point where the bottom of
the screen is at eye level while sitting and the top is
eye level when standing.
Next, drill holes using a masonry bit for your
anchors.
Insert a commercially available concrete anchor into
each hole.
Use a hammer and lightly tap each anchor into
place so that only the threaded shaft of the concrete
wedge anchor is protruding from the wall.
Once all the anchors are in place, move the wall
bracket into position.
Attach the nut onto the threaded shaft that is
protruding from the wall.
Re-level the wall plate and tighten all concrete
wedge anchor nuts at this time.
If concrete wedge anchors are not used and you
decide on other mounting hardware, please follow
the installation instructions as provided with that
hardware.
Do not overtighten the concrete wedge anchors.

Installation
Insert a small straw or toothpick into the threaded
inserts found on the back of the at panel.
Use a pencil to mark the depth of the threaded
insert on the small straw or toothpick.
Mark the straw or toothpick 1/8” above the depth of
the threaded insert, as shown in Figure 1.
Insert the small straw or toothpick into the
remaining threaded inserts to compare and verify
their depth using the straw or toothpick’s 1/8”
allowance mark.
Locate the correct diameter screw for the threaded
insert.
If the screw you selected is longer than the 1/8”
allowance mark on the small straw or toothpick, as
shown in gure 2 and gure 3, do not use this screw.
The screw length must not bypass the mark.
Test each size of the screws provided.
The correct screws should thread easily into the
mounting point and not pull out when tension is
applied.
NB. You must account for the bracket, spacers and
Griplate™ depths when using the Thread Depth
Indicator to measure the thread depth of your at
panel.
Universal Spacers Installation
If your at panel has uneven mounting points, or
recessed mounting points, please use the provided
universal spacers.
The universal spacer may be stacked six high, for a
total stacking height of 1-1/2”. The universal spacers
must be stacked in the direction shown above.
The universal spacers must be placed between the
mounting bracket and the at panel. The universal
spacer will t M4, M5, M6 and M8 screw sizes.

The Griplates™ have M4, M5, M6 and M8 hole
patterns to t the hardware that your at panel
requires. Eg. If your at panel uses M8 screws, use
the M8 mounting points.
NB. Pre-install the mounting screws, universal
spacers and Griplates™ . Once mounted, push down
to eliminate movement from the bracket, then
tighten the rest if the hardware. Repeat this process
for the installation of the remaining bracket.
Mounting Bracket Installation
This kit provides a variety of screws with dierent
lengths and diameters to accommodate most at
panels.
NB. The number and location of mounting points
will vary between manufacturers.
Do not over-tighten the screws.
Place your at panel screen down on a soft, at
surface and locate the threaded mounting points
that are located on the back of the at panel.
Determine which screw is the correct length.
Attach each bracket to the at panel by aligning the
holes on each bracket with the threaded inserts on
the back of your at panel, insert the screws through
both and turn clockwise until they are fully inserted.

NB. The adaptor plates can be used with mounting
patterns from 200mm x 200mm to 650mm x
840mm.
NB. In the event that your at panel has recessed or
an uneven mounting surface, universal spacers may
be stacked to achieve proper spacing. Select the
amount og universal spacer that is closest in depth
to keep your adaptor plate as close to the at panel
as possible. The universal spacer must be secured
between the at panel and the adaptor plates.
Do not overtighten the screws.
Determine if your at panel will need the adaptor
plates.
Locate the mounting points on the back of the at
panel.
Using a screwdriver, insert and tighten the mounting
hardware and adaptor plates to the back of the at
panel. Do not overtighten the screws.
Place the universal mounting brackets over the
threaded mounting studs that are on the adaptor
plate.
Place one 5/16” at washer onto each threaded
mounting stud.
Thread one M8 nylon nut onto each threaded
mounting stud.
NB. Before tightening the nylon nut, be sure that
both universal mounting brackets are level and
aligned with each other. If they are not aligned
and level, the at panel will not sit properly when
mounted to the EMPRO-WM175B.
Once the universal mounting brackets are level, use a
1/2”socket and socket wrench to tighten the M8 nylon
nuts. Do not over-tighten the screws.

Two people are required for this step.
NB. Do not release the at panel until verifying
the connection between the universal mounting
brackets and the upper and lower mounting bars.
Place the universal brackets and the at panel over
and onto the upper and lower mounting bars of the
EMPRO-WM175B and lower it down. Do not release
the at panel until the at panel is resting securely
on the upper and lower mounting bars.
Securing and Levelling the Flat Panel
In the event that the at panel is tilted too far to
one side, the levelling screws will allow you to
compensate for this tilt by simply adjusting the
screws with a screwdriver. (see illustration for a
clearer view).
Use a screwdriver to adjust the two M6 x 30 levelling
screws, located on the top of the mounting brackets.
Once the at panel is level, use a screwdriver to
tighten the two M6 x 30 locking screws, located on
the bottom of the mounting brackets. Do not over
tighten these screws.
Adjusting the Flat Panel Tilt
NB. To adjust the tilt tension of the EMPRO-WM175B,
loosen the tension bolts located on the bottom right
and left side of the main arm assembly. Re-tighten these
bolts to achieve your desired tension.
Adjusting the Flat Panel Down
Place one hand at the centre top edge of the at
panel.
Place the other hand on the centre bottom edge of
the at panel.
Using the upper hand, gently pull the top of the
at panel away from the wall while the lower hand
gently pushes the bottom of the at panel towards
the wall.
