How to Install Premier Mounts AM500-U

• Plan and prepare: Identify the wall where the mount will be installed. Use a stud finder to locate framing or confirm the wall can support a 500 lb load. Gather all included mounting hardware and tools—typically a drill, level, socket/wrench set, and a screwdriver. Ensure you have the appropriate anchors if mounting on non‑stud surfaces.
• Attach the wall plate: Secure the wall plate to the wall studs using the supplied hardware. Use a level to verify that the plate is perfectly horizontal before tightening. Confirm that the mounting location aligns with the intended display position and lighting considerations.
• Prepare the display: Attach the corresponding mounting plate or brackets to the back of the TV or monitor according to the display’s VESA pattern. Make sure the weight is evenly supported and that the mounting screws are snug, but not overtightened.
• Hang and connect: With an assistant, lift the display and align it with the wall plate. Secure the display to the wall plate as per the AM500‑U installation instructions, ensuring a secure engagement and clearance for the dual‑arm mechanism.
• Adjust and test: Power up the display and verify image alignment. Use the tilt adjustment to level the screen, then extend and retract the dual arms to ensure smooth movement. Route cables neatly and use any provided cable management features to maintain a clean appearance. Finally, confirm the display remains level and plumb under various extensions and angles.
