Sanus Wall Mount

Magnavox flat-screen LCD TVs offer two separate means of installation. A base that can be attached to the bottom of the flat screen comes in the box with a Magnavox LCD when you buy it, and Magnavox flat screens also provide screw holes on the back that can be used to mount the TVs with a compatible wall mount. Mounting the Magnavox LCD flat-screen television can save space in your home by eliminating the need for a TV stand.

Instructions

1 Get a wall mount that fits the size and weight specifications of your Magnavox LCD TV. Wall-mount kits list on the packaging the maximum dimensions and weight of a television that the mount can safely support.
2 Mark the wall where you want to hang the Magnavox LCD television. Crutchfield states that you should hang an LCD TV so that the middle of the screen is approximately eye level when you sit down to watch television. Therefore, you should measure the distance from the floor to eye level when you sit on the couch or other main seating in the room with a measuring tape and then add a few inches to that measurement to determine where the top of the screen should hit. Next, measure that distance up from the floor and mark several places across the wall where the top of the screen should hit.
3 Find the studs in the wall with a stud finder. Next, find the middle of each stud. Crutchfield recommends finding the stud center by tapping a nail into the wall where the stud is located until the nail hits the stud, removing the nail and moving it over inch and tapping it in again. Do this in both directions across the stud and, when you find nothing but drywall on either side, measure the distance between the holes and mark the middle.
4 Measure between the screw holes on the wall bracket part of the TV mount. Transfer the distances between the screw holes on the mount to the wall, marking the location where each screw should go and trying to keep the screw locations in the center of the wall studs whenever possible. Screw the bracket into the wall using the screws provided with the wall mount.
5 Attach the TV bracket part of the wall mount to the mounting holes on the Magnavox LCD TV. To attach, simply use the screws provided to screw the bracket into the holes. Once both parts of the wall mount have been installed, lift the bracket on the LCD TV up and over the wall bracket and lower the TV until the brackets of the wall mount lock into place.
