as a template, mark 4 drill points (2 on top, 2 on bottom) with a pencil on the vertical
reference lines you just drew.

TV directly to the wall. If you have already mounted your TV to
the Swinging Floater or plan to display your TV on the top
surface of the stand, disregard the following steps.

Bolt Washer is pulled firmly against the metal plate of Mounting Frame. If there is a layer
of drywall or other material, this drywall or other material may not exceed 5/8 inch in
thickness. Failure to heed this caution may result property damage and/or personal injury.
