Selecting The Mounting Hardware To Attach Brackets To Flat Panel
1) Identify the correct diameter screw for the flat panel threaded inserts. The correct screws should
thread easily and not pull out when tension is applied.
2) To determine proper screw length, insert thread depth indicator into a
threaded insert on the flat panel.
3) Mark the thread depth indicator 1/8” above the
depth of the threaded insert. (FIGURE I)
4) Select a screw that is shorter than the 1/8” mark
made on the thread depth indicator. Threaded Insert

Attaching Vertical Mounting Brackets to Flat Panel
NOTE: Be sure to observe the “up” arrow on each vertical
mounting bracket to maintain the proper orientation of the
flat panel. (FIGURE K)
1) Place the flat panel face down on a soft, flat surface and
identify the number and location of screws.
2) Align the holes on each vertical mounting bracket with the
threaded inserts on the flat panel.
NOTE: To ensure neat appearance, center vertical
mounting brackets on flat panel. Do not extend
brackets past top or bottom of flat panel.
3) Secure each vertical mounting bracket with the
screws and hardware identified in previous
steps. Use a minimum of (2) screws per vertical
mounting bracket.
NOTES:
• Place flat panel on soft, flat surface while working.
• Do not place excessive pressure on back of the flat
panel.
• Universal washers must be installed between
the head of the mounting screw and the
vertical mounting bracket as shown.
(FIGURE J)
Nylon Spacers
Nylon spacers add distance between vertical
mounting bracket and flat panel. They will fit all
supplied screw sizes. The spacers must be used
only when attaching flat panels which have:
• Recessed mount points
• Uneven mount points
• Any obstruction near the mount points
• A curved back
NOTES:
• Nylon Spacers must be stacked and oriented as shown.
• Nylon Spacers must only be installed between the
vertical mounting bracket and the flat panel.

4) Check for proper height.
NOTE: Achieving desired height may require
repositioning of horizontal mounting bracket
and/or removal and re-installation of vertical
mounting brackets.
5) Rotate locking clamps on vertical mounting
brackets up and insert locking pins as shown.
(FIGURE M)
6) Position flat panel as needed and tighten
(1) one locking screw on each vertical
mounting bracket to secure in place.
