The Av Link 129.166UK is a tilt wall mount designed for flat-screen TVs up to 70 inches and a maximum weight of 35kg (77lbs). Before installation, ensure the wall structure is capable of supporting the combined weight of the mount and the television. Always use the appropriate hardware for your wall type (wood stud or concrete/brick). Do not overtighten screws during assembly.

- Mark the mounting holes.
- Drill pilot holes (4.5mm diameter) into the center of the studs.

Attaching Brackets to TV
Select the correct screws (M-A, M-B, or M-C) based on your TV's mounting hole depth. Use spacers (M-E or M-F) if necessary to ensure a secure fit. Attach the TV brackets (B and C) to the back of the TV using the selected screws and washers (M-D).
Mounting and Tilt Adjustment
Once the wall plate is secured and brackets are attached to the TV, hook the TV brackets onto the wall plate. Ensure the safety mechanism is engaged.
