Securing Wall Mount to Wall
Caution: This product is not designed for use in metal stud walls
Wood Stud Walls
Note: You must attach the TV wall mount to a wall that has at least 2” x 4” wood studs to avoid property
damage or injury.
Locate wall studs
1. Using a stud finder, locate two wood studs that are 16” to 24” apart.
2. With a pencil, mark the location of the studs.
Mark and drill holes
1. Tape the included poster to the wall so the holes align with the studs. Use the built-in level on the
wall plate [1] to make sure the poster is level. Put the wall plate [1] aside.
2. Drill 4 holes with the 3/16” drill bit, 2-1/2” deep. Remove the poster.
Anchor mount to wall
1. Using a 7/16” wrench, attach the wall plate [1] to the wall with the supplied lag bolts and washers
[9] & [10].
2. Use the level before tightening bolts.
Note: Do not over-tighten lag bolts. Tighten only until they are firmly against the wall plate.
