3. If your selected screw is longer than the marking on the thread depth indicator, DO NOT USE this screw. 4. The screw length must not bypass the marking. Select another screw size (Figure 2 and 3), until you find one that comes closest to your mark without going past.

WHEN MOUNTING THE AM3, THE SIDE THAT THE SWINGOUT ARM IS LOCATED ON MUST HAVE A LAG BOLT MOUNTED ON AT LEAST ONE SIDE (SEE FIGURE 1), TOP AND BOTTOM. Step 1. To change the mount orientation, choose the desired side that the mount will open to, left or right. Step 2. Once the side has been determined, attach the mount to the wall. Wood Studs Figure 4 Right Side Orientation Left Side Orientation Figure 5 Installation Instructions Page 7 AM3/AM3-B Mount Installation Before proceeding with the mount installation, you should already have the mounting holes pre-drilled. Please use the template (supplied) and follow the instructions. For ease of installation, it is recommended that two people perform the installation. WHEN MOUNTING THE AM3, THE SIDE THAT THE SWINGOUT ARM IS LOCATED ON MUST HAVE A LAG BOLT MOUNTED ON AT LEAST ONE SIDE ( FIGURE 4, PAGE 8), TOP AND BOTTOM. DO NOT OVERTIGNTEN THE LAG BOLTS WHEN ATTACHING THE MOUNT TO THE WALL. IMPROPER INSTALLATION MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE TO PROPERTY Step 1. After the holes have been pre-drilled, line up the mounting slot openings with the pre-drilled holes. Step 2. Insert four (4) 5/16” x 3” lag bolts (or six (6), depending on your mount location) and washers into the mounting holes and tighten (Figure 6). Step 3. Before tightening down the lag bolts, place a level (supplied) on the top rail and make sure that the mount is level. Once the mount is level, tighten all of the lag bolts using a 1/2” deep set socket. 5/16” x 3” Lag Bolts and Washers 5/16” x 3” Lag Bolts and Washers Figure 6 Concrete Mount Installation The concrete anchors must be used for concrete installation. They can be purchased at your local hardware store. Step 1. Begin by placing the wall plate into position against the wall, keeping it level. Step 2. Mark off four holes to be used for securing the mount and place the wall plate aside. Step 3. Next, drill holes using an electric drill and 5/16” masonry bit. Step 4. Insert a concrete anchor into each hole. Step 5. If necessary, a hammer can be used to lightly tap each anchor into place so that they are flush with the wall. Step 6. Once all of the anchors are in place, move the wall plate back into position. Step 7. Attach the nut onto the threaded shaft that is protruding from the wall. Step 8. Do not tighten until all nuts are in place.

Once the mount has been oriented and mounted to the wall, remove the nose piece by removing the tensions bolts. After loosening the tension bolts, be sure that the nose piece is held together tightly before rotating. Step 2. Detach the nose piece assembly, rotate 180°, and place back onto the mount (Figure 7). Step 3. Slide the tension bolt back into the holes and attach the nuts from the backside of the nose assembly. Tighten the tension bolts (Figure 8). Installation Instructions Page 9 AM3/AM3-B Universal Mounting Bracket Assembly Step 1. Place the universal bracket bar and the universal brackets on a flat surface. Step 2. Slide the universal brackets onto the universal bracket bar (as shown in Figure 9) with the set screws facing up. At this time, do not tighten the set screws that are located on the universal bracket. Step 3. Place the display on a soft, flat surface, face-down. Next, place the universal bracket assembly on the back of the display, with the universal brackets resting directly over the display mounting points. Step 4. Once the desired position has been determined, place the griplates over each mounting point (dimples facing up) and secure them using the appropriate hardware (see Page 5). Step 5. At this time, center the universal bracket bar and tighten the set screws that are located on the universal brackets. For the two upper mounting points, the dimples (griplates) must be facing up. For the two lower mounting points, the dimples (griplates) must be facing down.
