STEP 2 - Select screws, washers, and spacers
1
Select the hardware for your TV (screws, washers, and spacers). A limited number of
TVs come with mounting hardware included. (If there are screws that came with
your TV, they are almost always in the holes on the back of your TV.) If you don't
know the correct length of the mounting screws your TV requires, test various sizes
by hand-threading the screws.
Select one of the following types of screws:
For a TV with a flat back:
• M5 × 20 mm screws (
B
)
• M6 × 20 mm screws (
D
)
• M8 × 20 mm screws (
F
)
For a TV with an irregular/obstructed back:
• M4 × 35 mm screws (
A
)
• M5 × 35 mm screws (
C
)
• M6 × 35 mm screws (
E
)
• M8 × 36 mm screws (
G
)
If you use M4/M5 screws, select the M4/M5 washer (
I
) or if you use M6 or M8 screws,
select the M6/M8 washer (
J
). For an irregular or obstructed TV back, also use the
spacers (
H
).
2
Remove the screws from the holes in the back of your TV.
CAUTION:
To avoid potential personal injuries and property damage, make sure that there are
adequate threads to secure the brackets to your TV. If you encounter resistance, stop
immediately and contact customer service. Use the shortest screw and spacer combination to
accommodate your TV. Using hardware that is too long may damage your TV. However, using a
screw that is too short may cause your TV to fall from the mount.
