How to install Chief Tilting Outdoor Wall Mount

- 2. Locate studs or use appropriate anchors: For exterior walls, locate wall studs or use exterior-rated anchors suitable for the wall material. Secure the wall plate to the structure using the provided hardware, ensuring the mount sits level and solid against the surface.
- 3. Attach mounting arms to the display: Install the display’s mounting arms to the back of the flat-panel according to the display’s VESA pattern. Use the appropriate screws and spacers, making sure the connection is snug without overtightening.
- 4. Hang the display on the wall plate: With a helper, align the display’s mounting pattern with the wall-mount arms and gently secure the display in place. Confirm that the display is level and that all fasteners are properly seated. Re-check alignment after a short period of time or upon weather changes.
- 5. Secure safety measures: If your installation requires extra security, use the provided anti-theft screws or additional locking mechanisms when applicable. Ensure all joints move freely and that the tilt mechanism operates smoothly without obstruction.
- 6. Set tilt and verify alignment: Adjust the tilt to the preferred viewing angle. Confirm that the display remains steady through minor vibrations or wind and that the angle remains consistent after a short test period.
- 7. Final inspection and maintenance plan: Do a final check of all screws, anchors, and the tilt mechanism. Create a simple maintenance plan to inspect weatherproof seals, hardware integrity, and tilt performance at seasonal intervals to ensure ongoing reliability.
