Step 1: Mounting Monitor Brackets to a television with a Flat Back

First, determine the diameter of the Bolt (n,o,p,q) your TV requires by hand threading them into the threaded insert on the back of the TV.

ENGLISH

If you encounter any resistance stop immediately! Once you have determined the correct diameter, see the appropriate Diagram below. You

will thread the Bolt through the appropriate Lock Washer (v,w,x,y), a Washer (bb,cc), the Monitor Bracket (d) and finally into the TV. Make

sure the Monitor Brackets are vertically centered and level with each other. Repeat process until each Monitor Bracket is secured to the TV

with 2 bolts.

Note: For TVs with a curved back or any other obstruction See Step 2. After completing this step, proceed to Step 3.

Step 2: Mounting the Monitor Brackets to a television with a curved back or any other obstruction.

First, determine the diameter of the Bolt (r,s,t,u) your TV requires by hand threading them into the threaded insert on the back of the TV. If

you encounter any resistance stop immediately! Once you have determined the correct diameter, see the appropriate Diagram below. You

will thread the Bolt through the appropriate Lock Washer (v,w,x,y), a Washer (bb,cc), the Monitor Bracket (d), a second Washer (bb - M4/M5

diameter only), a Spacer (z,aa), and finally into the TV. Make sure the Monitor Brackets are vertically centered and level with each other.

Repeat the process until each Monitor Bracket is secured to the TV with 2 bolts.

Step 3: Add the Vise Assemblies to the Monitor Brackets:

ENGLISH

Note: Do not overtighten the 1/4-20 Nut (l). The Vise Assembly (e) should be able to rotate freely around the Car-

riage Bolt (k).

Place the Vise Assembly (e) between the two sides of the Monitor Bracket (d) so that the two jaws point toward the set of 1” diameter

holes and the allen bolt is facing away from the television. Place a 2” Carriage Bolt (k) through the square hole in the side of the Monitor

Bracket, through the hole in the Vise Assembly, and then through the square hole in the other side of the Monitor Bracket. Next, tighten

a 1/4-20 Nut (l) onto the end of the 2” Carriage bolt. Repeat this step for the bottom of the Monitor Bracket. Finally, repeat these two

steps for the second Monitor Bracket. See Diagram 3 for assistance.

Step 4: Attach the Arm Assembly to the Television (Part I)

Warning: The 1” Diameter Tubes (c) must extend beyond the outside edges of both Monitor Brackets (d) and the

Allen Bolts in all 6 Vise Assemblies (e) must be tightened for the installation to be safe!

First, orient each Vise Assembly (e) so that a 1” Diameter Tube (c) will pass through the 1” round hole in the Monitor Bracket (d) and

then between the jaws of the Vise Assembly. Insert a 1” Diameter Tube through the top hole in the first Monitor Bracket. Repeat this step

for the Bottom hole in the same Monitor Bracket. See Diagram 4a for assistance.

Step 4: Attach the Arm Assembly to the Television (Part II)

Position the Arm Assembly (b) so that the hook shaped tab shown in the Detailed View of Diagram 4b is on the top. Line up the two 1”

diameter holes in the Monitor Bracket (d) at the other end of the Arm Assembly with the with the 1” Diameter Tubes (c). Continue to

push the 1” Diameter Tubes through the vise assembly on the Arm Assembly and then through the other Monitor Bracket. Again, make

sure the Vise Assemblies on both the Arm Assembly and the second Monitor Bracket are oriented so that the 1” Diameter Tubes will

pass between the jaws. Once the 1” Diameter Tubes are in place, tighten the allen bolts on the 4 Vise Assemblies in the two Monitor

ENGLISH

Brackets with the Allen Key (j) to lock the television to the mount. Next, slide the Arm Assembly into the desired position between the

two Monitor Brackets and tighten the two remaining Vise Assemblies inside the Arm Assembly.

Note: Sanus recommends Arm Assembly to be centered between Monitor Brackets

Step 5: Attach the Wall Plate: Wood Stud mounting options only.

Warning: DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE LAG BOLTS! Tighten Lag Bolts (h) only until the Lag Bolt Washer (i) is pulled

rmly against the Wall Plate (a).

Wood Stud Mounting: The Wall Plate (a) must be mounted to two wood studs at least 12” apart. Use a high quality stud

sensor to locate two adjacent studs. It is a good idea to verify where the studs are located with an awl or thin nail. Pre-drill a 2.5” deep

hole in each stud at the desired height using a 3/16” drill bit. Make sure these holes are in the center area of the studs and level with each

other. Use the Wall Plate as a template to mark the location of the second hole in each stud. Drill 2.5” deep holes using the 3/16” drill

bit in the marked location. Attach the Wall Plate to the wall using four Lag Bolts (h) and four Lag Bolt Washers (i). Make sure the Wall

Plate is oriented so the flat surface in the center of the plate is against the wall as shown in Diagram 5.

Step 6: Hang the assembly onto the Wall Plate

ENGLISH

Warning: This step may require 2 people to lift the assembly onto the Wall Plate! Sanus is not responsible for injury

or damage.

Orient the Arm Assembly (b) so that the arm extends directly away from the television and the transfer plate is parallel with the televi-

sion. Some televisions may require 2 people to lift. Lift up the assembly and hook the transfer plate onto the tab on the top of the

Wall Plate (a) as shown in Diagram 6a. Adjust the transfer plate side to side on the Wall Plate until it is in the desired location. Thread

each Safety Bolt (m) into one of the two holes in the bottom of the transfer plate and tighten them with the Allen Key (j) so that they are

behind the tab on the bottom of the Wall plate as shown in Diagram 6b.

Step 7: Leveling the Monitor and Adjusting the Tension

WARNING: Do NOT REMOVE the tension nuts labeled in Diagram 7!

Once the television is mounted onto the Wall Plate (a), and the Safety Bolts (m) are tight, it can be adjusted to level. Slightly loosen the

two allen bolts on the back of the Arm Assembly (b). Once those two bolts are loosened, the television can be adjusted ±6º until level.

When the television is level retighten the two allen bolts. The tilt can be adjusted by simply tilting the TV. To adjust the tension of tilt,

use the tension knobs. The tension nuts labeled in Diagram 7 can be slightly loosened or tightened to adjust the tension of the Arm As-

sembly. If you need to adjust the tension nut closest to the TV, you must remove the safety bracket, adjust the tension and re-install the

safety bracket as shown in the safety bracket installation view of Diagram 7.
