Assembly instructions
Step 1 – Determine whether your TV has a flat back or an irregular or
obstructed back
1Carefully place your TV face-down on a cushioned, clean surface to protect
the screen from damages and scratches.
2Temporarily lay the horizontal brackets (01) on the back of your TV.
3Align the screw holes in the brackets with the mounting screw holes on your
TV.
4Identify which type of back your TV has:
•Flat back: The brackets lay flush against the back of your TV and do not
block any jacks. You do not need spacers when assembling your stand.
•Obstructed back: The brackets block any of the jacks on the back of your
TV. You need the spacers (02 or 03) when assembling your stand.
•Irregularly-shaped back: There is a gap between the brackets and some
part of the back of your TV. You need the spacers (02 or 03) when
assembling your stand.
5Remove the brackets.

Step 2 – Select screws, washers, and spacers
1Select the hardware for your TV (screws, washers, and spacers). A limited
number of TVs come with mounting hardware included. (If screws came with
your TV, they are almost always in the holes on the back of your TV.) If you
don't know the correct length of the mounting screws your TV requires, test
various sizes by hand threading the screws.
Select the screws that fit:
Use the M4 washers (04) with the M4 screws. Use the M6/M8 washers (05)
with the M6 or M8 screws.
For an irregular or obstructed TV back, also use the 2.5 mm spacers (02),
22 mm spacers (03) or a combination of the 2.5 mm and 22 mm spacers. You
can combine spacers 02 and 03 for extra length.
2Remove the screws.
3For a flat back TV, go to Step 3 – Option 1: Attach the horizontal brackets to a
flat-back TV on page 9.
-OR-
For an irregular or obstructed back, go to Step 3 – Option 2: Attach the
horizontal brackets to an obstructed or irregularly-shaped TV back on
page 10.

M8 × 16 mm screw (08) M8 × 35 mm screw (12)
M8 × 25 mm screw (09) M8 × 50 mm screw (13)
CAUTION: To avoid potential personal injuries and property damage, make sure
that the screws have adequate threads to secure the brackets to your TV. If you
encounter resistance, stop immediately and contact customer service. Use the
shortest screw and spacer combination to accommodate your TV. Using
hardware that is too long may damage your TV. However, using a screw that is
too short may cause your TV to fall from the stand.
