• Muurtipe: Identify your wall type (wood stud, solid concrete, brick). Different wall types require specific mounting hardware and procedures.
• TV Weight and VESA Pattern: Confirm your TV's weight is within the mount's capacity and its VESA pattern matches the mount's compatibility.

4.2 Stap-vir-stap installasie

Step 1: Determine TV Height and Wall Plate Position

• Decide on the desired viewing height for your TV.
• Using a stud finder, locate the center of the wood studs in your desired mounting area. Mark these locations with a pencil. For concrete/brick walls, choose a suitable location away from electrical wires or plumbing.

Step 2: Install the Wall Plate Assembly

• Hold the wall plate assembly against the wall at the marked height and use a level to ensure it is perfectly horizontal.
• Mark the drilling holes through the wall plate onto the wall.
• Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. For wood studs, use a smaller drill bit than the lag bolts. For concrete/brick, use a masonry drill bit and insert wall anchors.
• Secure the wall plate assembly to the wall using the provided lag bolts and washers. Tighten firmly but do not overtighten.

5.2 Adjusting Swivel Angle and Wall Distance

• The articulating arm allows for a swivel range of +90° to -90° (depending on TV size and wall clearance) and extends the TV from 105 mm to 429 mm from the wall.
• Gently grasp the sides of your TV and move it to the desired swivel angle or extend/retract it from the wall. The joints are designed to move smoothly.
• No locking mechanism is typically required for swivel, as the friction in the joints holds the position.

5.3 Portrait and Landscape Orientation

• Let wel: The mount itself does not provide a rotational mechanism to switch between portrait and landscape after installation. This feature refers to the flexibility of initial setup.

5.4 Kabelbestuur

• Dichtheidskontrole: Every 3-6 months, check all screws and bolts (wall plate, arm joints, TV brackets) to ensure they are securely tightened. Do not overtighten.
• Skoonmaak: Wipe the mount with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by drying. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Smering: The articulating joints are designed for smooth movement. If movement becomes stiff, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the pivot points, but this is rarely necessary.

  Oplossing: Ensure the wall plate was installed level. Some mounts offer post-installation leveling adjustments on the TV brackets; check your specific model for this feature. If not, you may need to slightly adjust the wall plate.
• Montering voel los of onstabiel:
  Oplossing: Immediately remove the TV from the mount. Re-check all mounting screws and bolts for tightness, both on the wall plate and the TV brackets. Ensure the wall anchors (if used) are properly seated and the wall material is suitable. If the issue persists, consult a professional installer.
• Difficulty moving the articulating arm:
  Oplossing: The arm joints are designed to hold the TV's position. If movement is too stiff, check for any overtightened bolts on the arm joints. If too loose, gently tighten the bolts at the pivot points.
