Step 1
Before starting lay out all parts to your mount and match them to
the parts list provided. Verify that you have all your parts before
attempting to assemble the mount.
Step 2
Slide either extension brackets A or B ( or depending on
which works better for your TV) onto the mounting plate and
match up the slots on the extension brackets to the holes on the
back of your TV.
Step 3
Determine the correct screw size and if you need to use wash-
ers, lock washers, or spacers. Note: Spacers are used for TVs with
recessed hole patterns. Secure the TV to the extension brackets
( or ) using the appropriate hardware ( through ).
Step 4
Center the mounting plate on the TV and use the 5/16” screws
and washers to secure the extension brackets ( or )
in place. Set this aside for now.
Step 5
Mark the ceiling or desired mounting surface in preparation of instal-
lation of ceiling plate . If mounting to wooden ceiling joists, pre-
drill pilot holes using a 7/32” drill bit. Attach the ceiling plate
to the wooden ceiling joist using the 5/16” by 2.5” long lag screw
and washer . WARNING: Please verify that your mounting
surface will support the combined weight of your mount, mounting
hardware, and flat panel. Also verify that the mounting surface is
safe to drill through. Please note only mounting hardware for mount-
ing to wooden ceiling joists will be provided with the unit. If mounting
to a surface other than wooden ceiling joists then other hardware will
be required. If in doubt or uncertain about any of the above, please
contact a professional installer.

mounting rails
Step 3A: Attaching the
mounting rails to the flat pan-
el (holes are not recessed)

Step 6
Screw the outer mast into the ceiling plate as tight as
possible. Then proceed to take the ¼” – 20 brake screw tight-
en it down into the pipe couple on the ceiling plate using
the M3 Allen key . Note: It is important to tighten down the
brake screw as far a possible to prevent the outer mast
from rotating out of the pipe couple on the ceiling plate .
Step 7
If you wish to run cables through the masting of the mount take
timetodosonowbyinsertingtheheadofthecablethroughthe
oval slot cut into the ceiling plate running down through the
outer mast and then proceeding to run the cable through
the inner mast . Insert the inner mast into the outer mast
and pin the inner mast into place at the desired height us-
ing the M8 hex head screw and nylon nut .
Step 8
If you ran cables through the ceiling mast then proceed to feed
the head of the cables out through the slot cut into the pipe
couple at this time. Remember to leave enough slack at the
bottom to allow you to connect to your flat panel. Screw the
pipe couple onto the inner mast as tight as possible.
Then tighten the ¼” – 20 brake screw into the pipe couple
using the M3 Allen Key . Note: It is important to tighten down
the brake screw as far a possible to prevent the pipe couple
from rotating off of the inner mast .
Step 6 : Connecting the outer
mast to the ceiling plate
Step 7 : Attaching the inner
mast to the outer mast
Step 8 : Attaching the pipe
couple to the ceiling mast

Step 9
Attach the swivel bracket to the pipe couple using the large
metal washers , PVC washers and M16 nylon nut . Once
the nylon nut is tight, slide the cotter pin through the small
hole near the bottom of the screw coming out of the pipe couple
. Note: Be sure to tighten down the nylon nut as far as pos-
sible to prevent sag or list in the mount.
Step 10
Attach the adjusting bracket to the swivel bracket using the
M10 screws , washers and nylon nuts . Insert the adjust-
able screw into the back of the swivel bracket . This screw
will control your tilt.
Step 11
Lift the mounting plate with the TV onto the adjusting bracket
inserting the metal tabs on the adjusting bracket through
the slots on the mounting plate . WARNING: This step requires
at least two people to prevent possible injury. Use the M5 screws
, washers , and long Allen key to secure the mounting
plate to the adjusting plate .
Verify all screws and nuts are securely fastened.
Step 9 : Attaching the swivel
bracket to the pipe couple
Step 10 : Attaching the adjusting
bracket to the swivel bracket
Step 11 : Attaching the mounting
bracket to the adjusting bracket
