How to Set the Tension on TV Wall Mounts

Every TV wall mount has a tension knob that can be adjusted to set your TV to different viewing positions. Depending on your wall mount, you might have a wide range of viewing angles. Some wall mounts will only allow you to tilt the TV up and down, while others will allow you to swivel it a full 360 degrees.

Instructions

    1

    Locate the tension knob on your wall mount. This is on the mount securing your TV in place. It's easiest to find it by consulting the user's manual for your specific mount. It's not hard to find the tension knob, however. It will likely be the only knob on the mount.

    2

    Loosen the tension by turning the mount to the left. You don't have to completely loosen the knob, just enough to give the TV some mobility. It is good to have a friend hold the TV as you loosen it because the TV will move as soon as the knob is loose enough.

    3

    Move your TV to the position you would like. You can have your friend move the TV to different angles while you stand back and take a look at it. Once you find a position that you like, hold it there until you tighten the knob.

    4

    Tighten the tension knob on your wall mount. Turn the knob to the right to secure your TV in place. This is also easier if you have a helping hand to hold the TV while you're tightening it.
