TMmounting of the television to the LIFTBOX attachment arms.

TM NOTE: If the TV mounting screws provided by the furniture manufacturer/LIFTBOX (8mm diameter) are different than the original TV screws (different diameter) it would be necessary to obtain new screws which should have the same diameter as the original TV screws. They must be 0.24” longer (dimension B) if the television does not have anelevation of the back panel or C if it does.

Check and prepare the screws (as shown above) for the TV installation.

Remove the bag of contents from the lift arm.

A 6mm Allen key will be needed for theadjustments on the arms of the lift and the TV

installation. DO NOT DISCARD!

TV FRONT INSTALLATION


d e

All cables must be secured with self-locking cable ties and attached to the safety shelf before entering the wire managment chain, next wire-tie the cables near the entrance to the wire management chain.

Feed the wires through the slotted fingers in the wire management chain (as shown in pictures e, f and g), largest diameter first.

a e b c

Locate and remove all the screws that hold the front panel.

Remove the front panel.CAUTION: If the furniture construction doesn't allow installing and tightening the panel after hanging the TV, the panel must be installed BEFORE HANGING THE TV!

f g

h

Prepare the cables for the connection into the TV (as shown above).

f

All TV cables, after exiting from the lower end of the wire management chain, should be wire-tiedto the base of the wire management chain andthen moved outside the back panel of the

TM LIFTBOX using the small round hole (as shown above).

i j


Using a Philips screwdriver, loosen and remove the two screws at the top of the control unit. Place the screws aside to be reused later.

c

b

Feed the TV power cord through the slotted fingers in the wire management chain (as shown above).

e

Disconnect the motion lid support from the top. Slowly tilt the lid towards the back until it stops.This option allows for easy access when installing the TV. LET THE LID DROP BACK SLOWLY TO AVOID BENDING THE HINGES.

TMLiftbox TV power cable

Exiting from a hole near the base of the Wire Management Chain you will find the clearly marked receptacle end of the Liftbox™ television power cable. Fully connect the power cable, from the television, to this cable.

Do NOT plug the television directly into any power receptacle other than the one shown in picture c (image to the left).

The Lift Mechanism is equipped with built in protection against overheating, from the television. Should you try to lower the television, while it is still powered on, the lift will not fully lower until the television is turned off. Likewise, the lift will automatically raise, partially, should the television be powered on while still in the lowered position. Without this safety feature, heat can build up, from the television powered on inside of a closed cabinet and cause damage

Push all cables through the same hole in which the receptacle end of the Liftbox™ television power cable was exiting. Push all excess power cable into the cavity below the Liftbox™ control unit.

CAUTION: make sure the TV wires are installed in the LIFTBOX™ before installing the TV!

CAUTION:- if your TV width is less than 46 1/2” remove the two yellow transit screws- if your TV width is greater than 46 1/2” remove the two yellow and the four red transit screws

b

Measure the distance (x) from the top of the TV to the top of the mounting arm and make a note of it for the later reference. In this step, you will need to refer to the measurement taken before. You will need to adjust the upper mounting arm on the lift to the distance (y), which is the distance from the underside of the Cobra Arm to the top of the upper mounting arm. Both of those distances must be equal (x=y). Once you have positioned the mounting arm to the required measurement, level and re-tighten the adaptor bolt C on both side of the lift.


c d

e

B

C

A

In this step, you will need to remove the lower Mounting Arm from the lift. To do so, you will need to unscrew the security bolt A from both sides (put them aside for later use). Then loosen the bracket hook bolt B and remove the lower mounting arm (put it aside). Now loosen the adaptor bolt C and lower the mounting adaptor plate D. Attach the mounting arm to the upper mounting holes on the TV. A - security bolt, B - bracket hook bolt, C - adaptor bolt, - mounting adaptor plate D

D - mounting adaptor plateA - security bolt B - bracket

hook bolt

C - adaptor bolt

Now remove the remaining upper mounting arm the same way you removed the lower one and install it to the rear lower mounting hole on the TV.

Now you will need to raise the lower mounting adaptorplate D to connect with the hooks on the lower mounting arm. Once you have made this adjustment, tighten all the bolts A, B and C. Do the same on the other side. Double check after tightening.

Using the supplied 6 mm hex wrench (allen key), loosen the two bolts that attach the Safety Shelf to the lift and be sure that it does not come off its track. Next, position the Safety Shelf at its' lowestpoint and tighten. DO NOT REST THE TV ON THE SAFETY SHELF OR YOU WILL RISK DAMAGING THE SAFETY MECHANISM!



Now lift the TV and position its mounting hooks over the extended bracket hook bolt B. Then easily lower and rest the hooks over the bolts B. DO NOT rest the TV on the Safety Shelf or you will risk damaging the safety mechanism! Now tighten the security bolt (A) and bracket hook bolt (B).

Now center the mounting arm on the TV using a square to align mounting hooks on the bracket. Once you have centered the mounting hooks to the required measurement and alignment, tighten the bolts by using the hex nuts and washers supplied with the TV. Remember to downward pressure on the arms while tightening the bolts.

CAUTION: MAKE SURE THAT ALL BOLTS ON THE BOTH SIDES OF THE LIFT ARE TIGHTENEDSECURELY. DOUBLE CHECK.

This lift mechanism works best when the majority of the TV weight is transferred to the lower mounting arm. To allow the TV to settle and to remove the stress from the upper mounting arm, you must loosen both upper mounting bolts B and C on each side of the lift. Once they are both loosened, you can re-tighten them in place.

Wire-tie all cables to the appropriate clips on the top of the safety shelf.

Loosen the bolts that secure the metal safety shelf.

Raise the shelf as close as possible to the bottom of the TV and level it. Then tight the bolts. The safety shelf is constructed of two parts with limit switches

inside. Very slight pressure to the bottom side of the shelf will stop the lift. Should a foreign object or wiring obstruct the downward cycle, the lift will stop; preventing damage to the lift or the obstruction.

PRESSURE ACTIVATED EMERGENCY STOP:

NOTE: For an installation of 46 1/2" wide TV remove the four screws which are marked red in each corner of the safety shelf. THIS WILL ACTIVATE YOUR SAFETY SHELF.

Once the safety shelf is activated it prevents accidents from happening as shown in the picture above.
