OK I feel like a little bit of an idiot here, but we have our mount installed with the tv but we can't figure out how to lock the mount in the lower position once we pull it down. help!?

BEST ANSWER: Page 15 of the manual shows you how to adjust the spring weight. There is no "locked" position. you need to set the spring so it is comfortable to move up and down and will stay in what ever position you want.

you can adjust the attachment site of the gas pistons to provide more/less force pushing the tv back up. pull your tv all the way down, and you can see where the gas pistons attach to a large bolt in the frame attached to the wall. loosen the nuts on top, and then adjust the bolt from the bottom with the big ass allen wrench provided. This will move the attachment site up or down. There's a guide/guestimate on the side for proper height vs TV weight. Adjust, retighten nuts on top, tv should be very easy effort to move up or down.

all you should have to do is adjust the tension on the springs or screws that control that. they are on the back side and there are instructions on how to do that in the assembly instructions. I think it just takes a flat bladed screwdriver, but don't quote me on that. There's one on each on. Once you get it set right you don't have to worry about it. since we almost never use our fireplace, I just have mine pulled down and I leave it down. It stays in place just fine.

Here’s what I discovered after I installed this item. It’s like the mount was designed for TVs that are much heavier than current units in production. I purchased a 10-pound weight, and used some 100–pound zip ties to attach it (hidden) to the back of the mount. It’s just enough to keep the tv in the down position. There is no lock, other than gravity.

It doesn't actually "lock" in any position. The goal is to adjust the hydraulic actuator so that it isn't hard to move the TV up or down, and so that it will stay wherever you leave it. Try playing with the adjustment per the instructions, it takes a little time to find the sweet spot. Hope that helps.

It doesn't "lock". Adjust the hydraulics to "weaken" so the TV's weight holds it down. There's a main Allen wrench screw in the middle of the part that attaches to the wall. You adjust the strength to manage different weight TVs.

Does it spring back up when its lowered for you? If so do you have a really light TV? It could be that you have to release some tension on the pistons/spring (check the end of the instruction booklet) by turning left to right.

The mount uses the weight of the TV to keep it down, it does not lock. You likely need to adjust the pressure of the hydraulics to be not so powerful. Adjustment instructions are in the instructions.

Can the TV be pulled and stopped at any position in the middle, or it has to go all the way out / down ?
Weiju C
on Feb 22, 2018
BEST ANSWER: It depends on your TV weight and how you adjust the tension pistons. My TV is very light (42" LED LCD about 18lbs) and I had to lower the tension all the way to get it to stay at the bottom. Even then, it doesn't always stay all the way at the bottom.
The way the gas pistons are designed, it should be possible to position the mount at any height and have it stay there. If you have a position that you prefer, you should be able to adjust the piston tension to hold it in that position. The adjustment wrench for the tension is included with the mount.

This is what I have - the TV is almost about 90% down but not 100%, when I tried to leave it at anything above 90% it would just slide down. I actually wanted it to be fully up or fully down but the guy that fixed the mount didn't calculate properly, so if I'd get it all the way down then it would hit the fireplace mantle, keep this mind while you fix yours. My TV is 60 inch and is pretty heavy, so I think it depends. You maybe able to put it in one place anywhere and tighten the screw hard enough so it doesn't slide down but I don't know, I didn't need it so didn't try. Hope this helps!

Yes. This mount can be stopped in any position. It also has an adjustment for the weight of the display so it doesn't spring up or drift down. The display will appear to float in mid air. We have three at our school with 65" displays on them. Works really well. Teachers have no problem lifting them up to use the white boards they are mounted above.

Will this work with a 300x200 VESA for OLED TV's?
Michael W
on Dec 14, 2016
BEST ANSWER: To determine compatibility with a TV mount to your TV, please determine the VESA mounting pattern on the back of your TV. It is the 4 screw hole square formation on the back and it is usually listed on the TV specs or you can find out by measuring it yourself(measured in millimeters). Our TV mounts range from 50x50mm to 1000x700 and up so please check the TV mount specs for compatibility as well. I hope this helps, thank you!

Michael,
Short answer : Yes
Longer Answer: In the picture there are two vertical bars. Those bars will get attached to the back of your TV, the width can be absolutely any dimension in MM upto the width of the backet that the TV sits on when done. If you look closesly at the picture you will see about 14 holes in a row and then 5 slots in a row. The whole stand has adjustability so it you want your TV with the bracket in the fully or fully down positon to be a little higher or lower, then you can use different holes to attach the bracket on the back of your TV. Even the Pull down handle is adjustable with slots so that you can get the handle exactly where you want it below the TV. If you want more room for clearance then you can have it lower. If you want the handle more hidden then you can raise it up. Hope that makes sense. The TV mount even comes with two different size spacers for the back of your TV. Some TV will have the bracket attachment location indented or further back into the TV body. In that case you would use the longer spaces. The set also comes with two different sizes of screw; one for the short spacers and the other for the long spacers. It also comes with a small magnetic mount to help you get it stright when you mount it. I really liked that. The bracket uses two pistons that can be adjusted for diffent weights of TV's. Ideally you want to spend as little energy as possible raising and lowering the TV if you need to move it. The two pistons allow you to move it easily and will hold it in place. I purchased three of them for three different TV's in our living room. My smallest TV is a 43" LED TV and is so light that even on the lightest setting would not stay down. So I remove one of the pistons to half the amount of max weight that TV mount can hold. It was pretty easy, just remove two screws then unscrew one of the pistons and put back together.

Yes - I am using it with the LG E8 65" OLED with 300x200 and it's great. Be advised that the position of the VESA holes on the tv matters a lot for how this mount works. On the E8 they are very low on the TV so it is held higher than you might expect - the bottom part of the mount is visible below the tv when in the "up" position. The dimensions in the manual don't help very much with figuring this out.

Physically, you can remove the handle but you would then have to pull and push directly on the tv to retract it downward and upward respectively. The tension spring on this mount would have to be adjusted properly (which is included in the instructions) to minimize the force needed to accomplish this.
More importantly, the depth of this mount and the extension of the fireplace mantle (or whatever ledge may exist) will have to be considered when creating a recessed or flush mount installation.

Can you mount this on a brick wall?
Melvin C
on Aug 3, 2018
BEST ANSWER: I don't see why not. You would have to swap the lag bolts for some fairly heavy tapcon screws. I think my preference would be to tapcon wood mounts to the wall and bolt the TV mount to that. you can calibrate the pistons so you aren't pulling out so much as you pull the TV down, and that would help prevent them from loosening. I have been very happy with my bracket, although it is mounted to a stick frame wall.

is there a place to mount a center channel speaker? Mine is currently on the fireplace mantel.
A shopper
on Dec 19, 2016
BEST ANSWER: This can be answered with both a Yes and No.
The handle itself is a flat wide metal bracket that bolts to the back of the mount and hangs down. There isnt much room between the bottom of the tv and the handle, so for a traditional install with your tv and handle below, no you cannot use a sound bar or center speaker.
If you decide you don't want to use the handle but want the speaker, you can actually flip the handle upside down (so the grips are behind the tv and aren't visible) and mount your sound bar or center speaker to that, but again, you need to make sure the back of your sound device has some way to mount to it. It's just a flat piece of metal with holes on it after all.
In my case, I wanted the sound bar AND handle, so I fabricated some 6" extensions out of thick metal flat bar so my handle is actually about 9-10" below the bottom of my tv, and in that space I have my sound bar mounted. It looks super clean and can be done, but you have to get a bit creative.

I thought I should add a few details to my first post above.
The handle itself gets bolted to the horizontal bar which braces the vertical hanger bars that will bolt to the back of your tv, which you will pick up and hook on the wall mount.
You can choose how high or low to mount your tv on these vertical hanger bars, which essentially shrinks or enlarges the distance between the bottom edge of your tv and the grips of the handle.
Another answer to the question was provided by Brock M. Where he chose to install his tv a bit higher on the hangers and that gave him enough room to install his sound bar between the tv and the grips, whereas in my setup, I left my tv as low as possible (for viewing comfort) so I didn't have much gap (about 4") between the tv and grips. By doing that, my sound bar would NOT fit, so the price I had to pay was to fabricate some flat bar extensions to allow me to extend the handle down further to give me the 9-10" gap I needed to mount the sound bar.
Both setups work great and it can definitely be done with some planning and accurate measuring as you do the install.

The handle itself gets bolted to the horizontal bar which braces the vertical hanger bars that will bolt to the back of your tv, which you will pick up and hook on the wall mount.
You can choose how high or low to mount your tv on these vertical hanger bars, which essentially shrinks or enlarges the distance between the bottom edge of your tv and the grips of the handle.
Another answer to the question was provided by Brock M. Where he chose to install his tv a bit higher on the hangers and that gave him enough room to install his sound bar between the tv and the grips, whereas in my setup, I left my tv as low as possible (for viewing comfort) so I didn't have much gap (about 4") between the tv and grips. By doing that, my sound bar would NOT fit, so the price I had to pay was to fabricate some flat bar extensions to allow me to extend the handle down further to give me the 9-10" gap I needed to mount the sound bar.

No there is not, however I purchased a 3rd party mount that would mount about anything. The brackets are bolted to the Mono mount and are surprisingly sturdy. I am sure with some creativity, you could use one to mount a center speaker, as long as you don't go over the weight guidelines. Monoprice may sell these brackets, I did not look.
Also, in order to mount the soundbar, I ended up turning the lift handle around so it was out of the way. It looks cleaner, even though I have to reach behind the set to lift it.

I have a 65" TV which allowed no room between the handle and the TV. I opted to mount the soundbar above the TV on the wall and angle it toward our seating. I find no difference in the sound when it is below the TV versus when it is mounted above. With similar mounts, however, I have used a bracket that attached to the mount and allowed the soundbar to be perched on top of the screen or supported below the TV. The wall mount is far superior in my opinion and definitely more substantial.

Don't listen to the people saying it can't be done. I mounted mine directly to the handle that is used to pull the tv down and it looks and function amazing. I had planned it so mounted the TV high enough on the mount that there was 6.5 inches below the tv to the handle. Then my 6 inch wide Klipsch Gallery G28 speaker fit perfectly. Everyone that sees it is very impressed with how good it looks.

No, it's not meant to hold a central speaker. Personally, I plan to get a very compact speaker and convert the handle under the TV into a support for the speaker, but it will require some handiwork to create that new platform.

Would this mount work if the mounting wall above the mantle is slightly angled from outward at the bottom to inward at the top? About 6-7 degrees of slope backward from bottom to top.

BEST ANSWER: My wall above the mantle also has a slope (juts out about a foot at the mantle to only a few inches at the ceiling) and this mount worked great, I adjusted it so I use the mount’s tilt forward to counteract the wall slope.

It’s about 6.5 inches from the wall by my calculations. Seem significant but allows tv to pan left or right, and the mount is so cool when it’s pulled down, you won’t care how far it sits from the wall. Changes the viewing experience and no more sore neck. And your friends will be jealous.

An alternative would be to run two 2x4's or 2x6's horizontally across your 24" spacing, using lag bolts to secure them to the studs. Then you could attach the mount plate to those exposed boards (which you might want to paint to match your walls). This would have the added advantage of reducing the width of the mantle that the mount must swing past, allowing you to place it about an inch lower on the wall.
Also, I the studs above the fireplace had 12" spacing and the mount went on securely.

If you have spacing larger than 16", you will have to open up the wall and run some horizontal wood backing between the studs and make sure it's very secure. It's designed for 16" spacing.

can this mount be used for 65 inch curved tv?
A shopper
on Dec 13, 2016
BEST ANSWER: Don't see why not, it mounts to the back. I have a 65 vizeo m series mounted to it and its the best thing ever, though I did have a proper professional install drilled into three separate studs for support

Mounted a 65 inch curved Samsung with no problem. The TV came with spacers for mounting, but the mounting kit also includes spacers.

I have a 65 inch Samsung flat screen mounted with my center speaker below on the mount and it is awesome!

What is the depth of the bracket? I have a 6" deep recessed space for my TV with only 1/4" of clearance in height and want to make sure that when I pull the TV out using this wall mount it does not conflict with the bottom of the recessed space.

I may not precisely understand your question, but my first thought is the handles at the bottom may interfere with what you are describing.

As much as up to 9". 4-5" on the bottom and 8-9" on the top.

what is the footprint of the mounting surface of the mount on the wall (HxW)? Thanks!
A shopper
on Dec 21, 2016
BEST ANSWER: 19 inches by 16 inches. It was a bit of a challenge mounting it to a brick wall, but it was so worth it because the mount is amazing. When it is up, it is about 1.5 inches from the ceiling, but when I pull it done it is at the perfect height for viewing. I couldn't be happier, especially for this price.

will this wall mount be visible at the bottom of a 55" 2016 OLED TV?

on Jan 20, 2017
BEST ANSWER: You need a minimum TV height of 28.5" to cover the entire rear mount structure. The positions of the TV's mounting points could also impact the position. From what I've seen, a 55" probably won't do it.

No, the part that attaches to the wall is only about 15 to 16 inches long. Its completely covered when the TV is pushed up. The parts that attach to the back of the TV are adjustable up and down so the only part that will be visible is the pull down handle and even that can be adjusted up and down. I'm using this mount with a 60" LED TV and all parts of the mount are hidden.
