Though it may seem like a simple task, there is some degree of "handy man" skill required to properly install a television wall mount. Keep reading to learn increase your viewing pleasure in short order.
Instructions
1. Decide where you want to mount the TV. Identify the location of wall studs able to support the weight of the television. A stud finder is a useful tool for this process. Mark the studs with a pencil as you locate them.
2. Level the bracket before you anchor the television wall mount to the studs. This is a two-man job, as your partner needs to hold the bracket steady while you attach it to the studs with screws. Double check the level and make any adjustments before you place the screws.
3. Attach the portion of the wall mount designed to fit onto the television to the back of your set by way of the mounting holes. The holes might be covered, but you can easily remove the covers using the flat edge of a screwdriver.
4. Hang the television on the mounting bracket you've already attached to the wall. Have a partner hold the television in place while you screw the two brackets together.
