How do I choose the right screws and spacers for my TV when using the Amazon Basics Tilt TV Wall Mount?

[FrankMarie]

To ensure a secure and proper installation of your TV with the Amazon Basics B09JWSDQDK Tilt TV Wall Mount, selecting the correct screws and spacers is essential. The mount includes various screws and spacers to accommodate different TV models. Here's how to identify the right hardware:

1. Screw Selection:

   • The product provides screws in different diameters and lengths (M4, M6, and M8 sizes). These are marked as D, G, and I.
   • Start by testing the screws in your TV's mounting holes. Do not force them. If there's resistance, try a smaller diameter screw.
   • Once you find screws that fit smoothly, pair them with the appropriate washers (L/M).
   • Always perform a test fit in all four mounting holes before fully securing the brackets to your TV.

2. Spacer Selection:

   • Spacers are included for TVs with specific features or mounting configurations, like curved backs, recessed mounting holes, or protruding ports.
   • For flat TVs without any obstructions, spacers might not be necessary.
   • If your TV has inset mounting holes, or a curved back, you'll likely need spacers to ensure the mounting plate sits flush.
   • Test the screws (E, F, H, J, and K) to check the depth. Then, pair the suitable screw with the corresponding washers (L/M) and spacers (O/N).
   • Again, always test-fit all four holes before finalizing the installation.
