Procedures
Disassembling the bracket
The Wall Mount Bracket ships fully assembled, but to facilitate
installation, it should first be separated into two parts, the bracket itself
and the wall-mount plate. Before disassembly, be sure to note the proper
interlocking configuration of the tilt mechanism; this will remove doubts
when it is time to reassemble the bracket.
Figure 5. Loosening the tilt lock.
•
Make sure that the tilt mechanism can move freely. If it does not,
use a 5 mm hex wrench to loosen slightly the horizontal hex-
head bolt near the top of the tilt/pan mechanism. The bracket
should be free to tilt, but this bolt should remain in place.
