Step 3: Mounting the Wall Plate: Wood Stud, Brick, Solid Concrete, and Concrete Block
mounting options are provided.
Warning: DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE LAG BOLTS! Tighten Lag Bolts (u) only
until the Lag Bolt Washer (v) is pulled rmly against the Wall Plate (a)
Wood Stud mounting:
The Wall Plate (a) must be mounted to two wood studs at least 12" apart. Use a high
quality stud sensor to locate two adjacent studs. It is a good idea to verify where the studs
are located with an awl or thin nail shown in Diagram 3a. Pre-drill a 2.5" deep hole at the
desired height in each stud using a 3/16" drill bit. Make sure these holes are in the center
area of the studs and level with each other. Use the Wall Plate as a template to mark the
location of the second hole in each stud. Drill 2.5" deep holes using the 3/16" drill bit in the
marked locations. Attach the Wall Plate to the wall using the four 1/4 x 2.5” Lag Bolts (u)
and four Lag Bolt Washers (v). Make sure the Wall Plate is oriented so the at surface in the
center of the plate is against the wall and that a set of Lag Bolts is on each side of the two
large holes in the center as shown in Diagram 3b.
Brick, Solid Concrete and Concrete Block mounting:
Use the Wall Plate (a) as a template to mark 6 hole locations on the wall. The outer holes
must fall to left and right of the two large holes in the middle of the plate. Three in the top
row of slots and three more in the bottom row. Make sure these holes are level and there is
at least 6" between any two holes. Pre-Drill these holes with a 1/2" masonry bit to at least
2.5" in depth. Insert a Concrete Anchor (w) into each of these holes. Make sure the anchor
is seated completely ush with the concrete surface even if there is a layer of drywall or
other material in front. Attach the Wall Plate to the wall using 6 Lag Bolts (u) and 6 Lag
Bolt Washers (v).

Step 4: Choose mounting position:
You can mount your television in either of two positions:
at or at a 5 degree downward tilt. To mount the television
at to the wall use only the Monitor Brackets (c). To mount
the television in the 5 degree tilt position you must rst add
two Gussets (d) to each Monitor Bracket with two Carriage
Bolts (x) and two Gusset Nuts (y) as shown in Diagram 4.

Step 5: Hang the TV onto the Wall Plate:
First hook the Monitor Brackets (c) over the top of the Wall Plate (a), then let the bottom of the Monitor Brackets rotate in under the
bottom of the Wall Plate. This process is shown with the at mount option in Diagram 5a, and with the 5 degree tilt option in Diagram
5b. Once the TV is in place, insert the Safety Bar (b) into the slots in the bottom of the Monitor Brackets so that it sits behind the bottom
tab on the Wall Plate as shown in Diagram 5c. The bend at the end of the Safety Bar should face toward the wall. Once the bar passes
out the other side of the Wall Plate a padlock can be added to the hole in the Safety Bar for additional security.
