Using the tilting arm feature
After you’ve securely locked the TV with the monitor arms securely onto the wall plate, you can safely adjust the tilting feature on the arms. The arms can tilt up to 15° downward or up to 5° upward, depending on your optimum viewing position. Have your assistant hold the TV steady before you start to adjust the tilt. To adjust the tilt of your TV, simply reach behind the TV and turn the lever in the center of the arm to loosen. It works like a ratchet so that you can loosen the lever easily in a very confined area. To disengage the lever, rotate it away from the monitor arm and reposition as shown in Figure 16. Push it in again to turn and adjust the arm’s tension as shown in Figure 15. Repeat this procedure for the lever on the other arm also before attempting to position the TV.
After the TV is in the desired tilted position, you need to tighten the levers. Turn the levers clockwise to tighten, pulling out to disengage the rachet mechanism.

If you need to remove the TV
Flat screen TVs are very heavy and extremely fragile. Exercise caution when removing the display from the mount to avoid equipment damage or personal injury.
If your cables are accessible, disconnect all power and A/V cables before removing the TV with the Monitor Arms (MA) from the Wall Plate (WP). If cables are not accessible, have an assistant remove the cables as soon as the TV is lifted off the mount.
Have an assistant hold the TV in place as you unlock the locking mechanism as described in Figure 12. After the locking mechanism has been disengaged fully, you can lift the TV off of the bracket and away from the wall.
