Mounting Your Television
Follow these insm_ons if you wantto mountyo_ TV.undera cabinet:
Tools Required:
• Rule ortape measure
• Phillips screwdriver
•Pencil
• Blade screwdriver
• Drill and 1/4" drill bit
•DrillCountersinkAttachment (Optional)
Mounting Considerations:
•Make sure the bottom of the cabinet you select is strong enough to support aTV.
• Allow adequate room for ventilation, room to swivel, access to control knobs and
space for the antenna.
•Mount TV near an AC outlet.
•Do not use area directly beneath TV for cooking.
• Before mounting, turn the set on to check reception in the area you have selected (if
reception is poor try another location).
Mounting Instructions:
1. Prepare cabinet by removing items from counter and cabinet. Clean underside of
cabinet where TV is to be mounted.
2. Cut out the mounting guide and screw guide
•Cut out the guides on the lines indicated.
•The size of the mounting guide and the screw hole positions areidentical to the top
of the mounting bracket.
3. Position mounting guide
•Position the mounting guide on the underside of cabinet 314 inch back from the
cabinet's front edge.
• Position the mounting guide in the desired location and tape it to the bottom of the
cabinet. Be sure the location is a flat surface
Notes: Some kitchen cabinets have front overhangs as shown here. If the thickness of the
overhang exceeds 3/4 inch, tapethe mounting guide as close to the cabinet's front edge as
possible. The farther back you mount the TV, the less you will he able to swivel itto the left
and right (if cabinet is near wall).
The TV will protrudeabout 3" from the cabinet when the mounting guide is positioned 3/4"
back from the cabinet's front edge.
Cabinet Overhang
Mounting Bracket
16

Connecting Your TV
4. Drill holes in cabinet
• Drill l/4-inch diameter holes through the underside of the cabinet bottom using the
five circles on the mounting guide as a guide.
5. Remove mounting guide and drill shavings
Remove the mounting guide and clean the drill shavings from inside and under the
cabinet.
6. Select spacers if required
• The spacers slip over the ends of the screws and allow you to mount the TV below
the edge of the cabinet's overhang.
• Ifyour cabinet does not have an overhang, you probably will not need to use any
spacers.
• Ifyour cabinet has anoverhang, select the proper length spacer(s) so the TV will
clear the overhang when swiveled.
•Two or three spacers can be used together to make lengths of 1/4" to 1-3/4" at 1/4"
increments. Refer to the chartbelow to select the properspacers:
7. Select proper length of screws
• Only five screws are ne_ied. The size you need depends upon your type of cabinet.
• Holding the selected spacers for one of the screw holes under the cabinet, install a
washer and screw inside the cabinet using one of the three lengths of screws
provided.
Note: A visual description of these parts is on page 2.
8. Position mounth_g bracket under cabinet
•Position the mounting bracket under the cabinet as shown and match the screw
holes.
9. Attach mounting bracket to cabinet
• First mount one comer of the bracket. Hold the bracket and spacer(s) in place and
insert the screw from the inside of the cabinet down through washer and drilled
hole or down through countersink and drilled hole.
Note: The washers must be used on metal cabinets and on wood cabinets if you do not
countersink the drilled holes.
* Position the washer flat-side down and place screw into screw bole, through the
spacer(s) and through the screw hole in the mounting bracket.
•Place a nut into the cylinder at the bottom of the mounting bracket screw hole.
Hold nut in place (if necessary, use the top of apencil). While maintaining upward
pressure on the mounting bracket, finger tighten the screw. Do not tighten firmly
until all five screws have been started.
