Step 1: Mount Monitor Brackets to a television with a at back

NOTE: For televisions with a curved back, or an obstruction near the threaded insert see Step 2.

Determine the diameter of the Bolt (G,H,I) your TV requires by hand threading them into the threaded insert on the back of the TV. If

you encounter any resistance stop immediately.

Once you have determined the correct diameter, see the appropriate Diagram below, thread the Bolt through the appropriate Lock

Washer (M,N,O), corresponding Washer (P,Q), Monitor Bracket (B,C), and nally into the TV.

Make sure the Monitor Brackets (B,C) are vertically centered and level with each other.

Tighten the Bolts (G,H,I) securing the Monitor Brackets (B,C) to the monitor.

NOTE: If the horizontal distance between

the threaded inserts on the back of the

television is greater than 8-1/8 inches [206

mm] but less than 11-1/8 inches [282.5 mm],

the locations of the Monitor Brackets (B &

C) may be reversed from right to left. If the

Monitor Brackets are reversed, the Tension

Knobs must be removed and reinstalled so

that they are still facing out.

Step 2: Mount Monitor Brackets to a television with a curved back or an obstruction near the threaded insert

Determine the diameter of the Bolt (J,K,L) your TV requires by hand threading them into the threaded insert on the back of the TV. If

you encounter any resistance stop immediately.

Once you have determined the correct diameter, see the appropriate Diagram below, thread the Bolt through the appropriate Lock

Washer (M,N,O), the corresponding Washer (P,Q), the Monitor Bracket (B,C), a Spacer (R,S), and nally into the TV.

Make sure the Monitor Brackets are vertically centered and level with each other. See the appropriate Diagram below.

Tighten the Bolts (J,K,L) securing the Monitor Brackets (B,C) to the monitor.

NOTE: If the horizontal distance between

the threaded inserts on the back of the

television is greater than 8-1/8 inches [206

mm] but less than 11-1/8 inches [282.5 mm],

the locations of the Monitor Brackets (B &

C) may be reversed from right to left. If the

Monitor Brackets are reversed, the Tension

Knobs must be removed and reinstalled so

Step 3: Mounting the Wall Plate - wood stud, solid concrete and concrete block mounting options are provided

Wood Stud Installation:

CAUTION:

Do not over tighten the Lag Bolts. Tighten Lag Bolts (D) only until the Lag Bolt Washer (E) is pulled rmly against the Wall Plate

(A). If there is a layer of drywall or other material, this drywall or other material may not exceed 5/8 inch [15.8 mm] in thickness. Failure to heed

this caution may result property damage and/or personal injury

Use the Wall Plate as a template mark a location on the wall, one in the top row of slots and the other in the corresponding slot in the

bottom row. Pre-drill a 2.5” deep hole into the wood stud by using a 3/16” drill bit, making sure wall the Wall Plate is oriented to the at

surface is against the wall. Attach the Wall Plate to the wall using two Lag Bolts (D) and two Lag Bolt Washers (E). See Diagram 3A for

assistance.

Solid concrete and concrete block installation:

Use the Wall Plate (A) as a template to mark three (3) locations on the wall. Two in the top row of slots and one more centered in the

bottom row.

CAUTION: Always locate Concrete Anchors (F) in the block or concrete. Never drill into the mortar between blocks. Make

sure the Concrete Anchor is seated ush with the concrete surface even if there is a layer of drywall or other material. This

drywall or other material may not exceed 5/8 inch [15.8 mm] in thickness. Failure to heed this caution may result property

damage and/or personal injury.

Carefully pre-drill a 2.5” deep hole with a 1/2” masonry drill bit. Insert a Concrete Anchor (F) into each pre-drilled hole so it is ush with

the concrete surface; then, attach the Wall Plate (A) to the wall using three Lag Bolts (D) and three Lag Bolt Washers (E). See Diagram

3B for assistance.

Step 4: Attach Monitor to Wall Plate

CAUTION: Some televisions may require two people to lift. CSAV is not responsible for personal injury or product damage.

Rotate the Latch Handle into its most open position and hang the hooks of the Left and Right Monitor Brackets (B,C) over the tab on

the top of the Wall Plate (A) as shown in Diagram 4A.

Once the Monitor Brackets (B,C) are attached to the Wall Plate, rotate the Latch Handles on each Monitor Bracket until they click into

place. The tip of the Latch Handle should now be tucked up behind the tab on the bottom of the Wall Plate as shown in the detailed

view of Diagram 4B.
