To determine the desired viewing height, use the center slot opening in the wall mount as a center reference for the plasma television when mounted. Once the height is determined, use the bubble level to insure that the bracket is level. Next, using a pencil, mark the six (6) lag bolt slot openings on the mounting bracket. Before continuing, confirm the marks are located on the center of the studs.
Drill 1/4" pilot holes on the six (6) markings on the wall. Raise the tilt back plate and have someone hold it in place (arrow side away from the wall and pointing up). Put the lag bolt through the flat washers. Screw the lag bolt through the upper left slot opening into the 1/4" pilot hole. Confirm that the wall mount is still leveled and then screw a lag bolt to the upper right side slot opening into the 1/4" pilot hole. Then install the remaining four lag bolts tightly into the wall studs in the lower left and right slot openings on the wall mount.
Make any lateral positioning if any then secure the lag bolts. See fig 4.
Note: Pre drill before the securing the
5/16" lag bolts.
