Before drilling, make sure that there is enough room to lower and raise the display. For example, when the display is put in
the “up” position, it should not hit the wall and should be even with the front of the cabinet.
FLIP Mount Location
When mounting the FLIP mount to the underside of a cupboard, careful consideration must be taken.
The following steps will help in determining the placement of the FLIP mount (please see diagram above):
Step 1. Attach the flat panel to the FLIP mount (SEE PAGE 8).
Step 2. Put the FLIP mount in the “up” position.
Step 3. Place the FLIP mount base flush on the underside of the cupboard.
Step 4. Slide flat panel and FLIP mount to the rear of the cupboard surface until the bottom edge of the flat panel is a minimum 1” from
the wall.
Step 5. Use a pencil to mark where the two mounting holes are. This will be the location where your pilot holes will be drilled.
Mount placement will be primarily determined by the size of the flat panel being used.
There must be enough clearance for the FLIP mount and flat panel to be adjusted without interfering with the wall, counter
top surface and the overhead cupboard (see diagram below).
