DRYWALL INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
**IMPORTANT** For safety reasons, this
mount must be secured to a wood stud
capable of supporting the combined weight
of the mount and display. **DO NOT MOUNT
TO DRYWALL ALONE**
1. Use a high quality stud finder to locate the
stud where you wish to install your mount.
Mark both edges of the stud to help identify
the exact center.
**NOTE**: You must use the center of each
stud to avoid cracking or splitting the wood
during installation.
2. Place the wall plate against the wall and
level it using the integrated bubble level.
3. While another person holds the wall plate in
position, mark three locations for securing
the mount to the wall (See Fig. 1).
4. Drill a 1/8” (3mm) pilot hole at each
marked location.
5. Place the wall plate back against the wall
and attach it using the drywall screws (A)
provided in the hardware kit (see Fig. 2)

FIG. 2
CONCRETE INSTALLATION
INSTRUCTIONS
**IMPORTANT** For safety reasons, the
concrete wall must be capable of supporting
the combined weight of the mount and the
display. The seller/manufacturer takes no
responsibility for the failure caused by walls
or insufficient strength.
**IMPORTANT** If installing the mount into
a concrete block or brick surface, never drill
into the mortar between blocks or bricks.
YOU MUST SECURE THE MOUNT TO THE
CONCRETE BLOCK OR BRICK.
1. Place the wall plate against the wall in
the desired location and level it using the
integrated bubble level.
2. While another person holds the wall plate in
place, mark three evenly spaced locations
on the wall for securing the mount
(see Fig. 3).
Do not over-
tighten these
screws.
Ensure that
the wall plate
remains level
after all screws
are secured.
FIG. 3
3. Drill an 5/16”
(8mm) hole at
each marked
location.
Remove any
excess dust
from the holes.
4. Insert a concrete
anchor (B) into each
hole so that it is
flush with the concrete
surface (see fig. 4).
A hammer can be
used to lightly
tap the anchors
into place if
necessary.
FIG. 4

**Note** If the concrete wall is covered by
a layer of plaster or drywall, the concrete
anchor mush pass completely through the
layer to sit flush with the concrete surface.
5. Place the wall plate back
against the wall and
attach it using the
drywall screws (A)
provided in the hardware
kit (See Fig. 2). Do not
over-tighten these bolts
and do not release the
wall plate until all bolts
are in place. Ensure that the wall plate
remains level after all bolts are secured.
ATTACHING THE MOUNT TO
THE DISPLAY
**IMPORTANT** Use extra care during this
part of the installation. If possible, avoid
placing your display facedown as it may
damage the viewing surface.
**NOTE** This mount comes with a selection
of different screw diameters and lengths
to accommodate a wide variety of display/
monitor/television models. Not all of the
hardware in the kit will be used. If you
cannot find the appropriate screw size in the
kit provided, consult the manufacturer of
your display for more information.
1. Examine the mounting holes on the back of
your display:
A. If the mounting holes are spaced 75mm x
75mm or 100mm x 100mm apart, skip
this section and proceed with Step 2.
B. If the mounting holes are spaced 100mm
x 200mm or 200mm x 200mm apart, you
will need to use the adaptor plates
included with your mount. Attach these to
the mount according to the illustration
(see Fig. 5). Use the M4 x 12 screws (C), and
M4 Locking Nuts (D) from the hardware kit.
FIG. 2
**Note** You must attach the adaptor
plates using the four countersunk holes
located on the adaptor plates.
2. Determine the correct length of screw to
use by examining the back of your display.
A. If the back of your display is flat and the
mounting holes are flush with the
surface, you will use the shorter screws
from the hardware kit.
B. If the back of your display is curved,
has a protrusion, or if the mounting
holes are recessed, you will need to use
the longer screws and the spacers
provided in the hardware kit.
3. Determine the correct diameter of screw to
use by carefully trying one of each size (M4
and M6) from the hardware kit.
**Note** Do not force any of the screws – if
you feel resistance stop immediately and try
a smaller diameter screw.
4. Attach the mount to the back of your
display using the screws identified in Steps
2 and 3. If you are using the longer screws
on a display with a curved or recessed
back, you may also need to use the spacers
(J) provided in the hardware kit. Only use a
spacer if necessary.

FINAL ASSEMBLY
1. To complete the installation, carefully slide
the mount with your display attached into
the wall plate (See Fig. 6). Do not release
the display until the mount is securely
placed in the wall plate. If you need to
remove the mount from the wall, carefully
slide the mount upwards and out of the
wall plate.
2. Tighten the set screw located on the upper
front portion of the wall plate using the S4
Allen Key (K) provided in the hardware kit
(See Fig. 7). Remember to remove the set
screw before attempting to remove the
mount from the wall plate.
**IMPORTANT**
The set screw should
be used at all times to
prevent the mount from
being accidentally lifted
from the wall.
3. Cables can be routed
through the hook
located at the bottom
of the wall plate to keep
them organized and
out of the way.

OPERATION AND
ADJUSTMENT
1. To adjust the tilt angle or rotate your
screen, firmly grasp the sides of you display
and carefully move it into position. If you
find the mount is too difficult to move or is
too loose to hold your display in position,
adjust the three screws located directly
behind the head of the mount using the S4
Allen Key provided in the hardware kit (See
Fig. 8). Adjust all three screws evenly.
2. Swivel adjustments can be made simply by
moving your display to the desired position.
If any of the swivel joints are too tight or
too loose, they can be adjusted using the
S4 Allen Key provided in the hardware kit
(See Fig. 9).
3. Periodically clean your mount with a dry
cloth. Inspect all screws and hardware
at regular intervals to ensure that no
connections have become loose over time.
Re-tighten as needed.
