I read that you push the TV "in" and the mount locks the TV in place for travel...do you push the TV "in" again to unlock the TV? How to unlock TV?

Pull the nob up. Also, it is easier to lock the TV. In place by pulling up on the nob & pushing the TV until it locks in place.

Franco..Sorry, I have two differnt mounts on two different TV's..The one you are asking about locks in place when you push it in to the wall, then you pull a ring attached to a chain, which pulls a pin out of the mounting bracket that allows the TV to be pulled out, which enables you to swivel or whatever. I mounted it in the front of my motorhome, replacing an old Sony built in unit. I constructed a door with a piano hinge on one side so that I could open the door and use the space where the old TV was at for storage..I works great.

The 'T' bolt you see in the picture at the lower right actually locks it against the wall. When you push the tv back both arms become parallel and the 'T'bolt slides up a ramp and drops in a hole at the back of the tv mount. To release it you have to pull the bolt down. I mounted a 32 " TV on mine and the bolt hangs just slightly below the bottom of the TV. You will need about an inch of space for the bolt to drop down and if you have a large TV you may have to reach behind the tv from the bottom preferably to grab the bolt and pull it down. It is very solid and does work great.

Yes you push the TV in to lock it in for travel. There is a pin with a small chain hanging down that locks it in place. To unlock it for movability you simply pull the chain down.

I've had this in my Toyhauler with a 23 inch set for six months now and it works perfect for me.To lock I use two hands on outside edge of TV set and it pushs back and locks ( Audible click ) into place. You can pull the release to make this easier but requires a third hand.To release there is a handle on the bottom which you pull down. This comes with a extension pull cord for larger sets. Pull down and its unlocked.The latch has a somewhat tight spring but Its easy. Tight spring means less likely to ever comes unlatched accidently.

There is a latch at the bottom that you can pull to release the lock. If you can't reach behind the TV, then you will have difficulty releasing the lock and will need to attach a string or something similar.

Franco..There is a locking device that you pull out to slide the TV out, then another locking device you pull out to release the TV to a vertical position. You do the reverse to put it back to it's stored position..It has worked great for me in our motorhome, as it allows me to store other items below the TV..

Beneath (below) the round button used to take photos, there is a rigid, ribbed sliding piece that when slid to the UP position, the remote is 'locked' and when moved down, it is unlocked. I'm not sure the purpose of locking it, other than I do lock it when packing my camera equipment, just so it won't get damaged. That's my thinking anyway. Don't really know the purpose of the lock.

Worked for me. I had the same issue. I was able to slide the mount to the side to catch both the center and one off to the side a bit, the arms allowed me to move the TV back to the center of the wall when pushed all the way in and still cover the mount in the back...in other words, I had a stud in the middle, but was able to screw the left side of the mount into that, then slide it over an mount the right side to another stud, but sill position the TV in the center of my space.

if you notice in the picture on the top horizontal bar end bracket there is a hole. there is a tool that comes with the mount that fits this hole and rotates the bar ( the bar has a flat side to allow it to fit into the opening on the bracket that attaches to the TV) you insert the tool rotate the bar to lock the mount to the bracket and rotate the bar in the opposite direction to allow you to remove the TV from the mount. you can also slide the mount on the brackets that are anchored to the wall studs left or right to get the TV aligned properly.

Once mounted, just look at the screen to see if its showing what uou want to see. If not, push up or sideways then lock it in place! It is so very easy especially for a techie novice like me. We are on a 6 month rv trip and have it on all time. Love it!!

No. It is solid enough to ride with the TV mounted. Thus the locking mechanism.

It's tight to hold it in place. Hold the tv and roll it with the cup on the mounting plate.

Hi there. We had the same issue! There is a small "button" on one of the legs (at the edge of the bed part) that you press . It's the same one that's SUPPOSED to click to lock it into place (had some difficulties w/one of ours). It isn't obvious since it kind of blends in with all the other black plastic hardware. Hope this helps. Have a blessed week! :) | db, charlotte nc | 11-Nov-2014.

The tv mount slips into a slot on the wall mount. The unit does not rotate. If it is rotated, the tv could slip out of the mount. Based on your description of use, the mount can't be used for your application.

In My case I mounted a Sony Bravia 23" and for the prices is a secure product. It clicks once snap in so TV it remains so secure. It is easy remove it but I never have to do that in my case so I think you won't have that kind of problem. I can tilt down and up bit I never do that I can give 5 stars considering the price of this product. Hope this helps Regards Francisco

Yes. TV is easily removed by unscrewing the bolt that holds it in place. We use it in our motorhome as well and remove the TV from the mount to secure it for travel regularly. Only issue with this is that the black paint on the mount plate and on the arm is easily scratched off.

Be sure to push the reset button and then press the scan button possibly multiple times until you here the tv. Mine usually takes 1 push. This will also happen if your batteries are low. My tv does not have an available audio output so I have it hooked directly to my cable box output. So make sure you check your connections as well.

You can't remove it, but don't worry it is spring-loaded and recesses back into the TV if you don't want to look at / use it. You just push it back into the frame of the TV. I agree, I got this TV about 2 months ago and haven't used the camera once, it stays away.

There are two allen head screws that secure the vertical arms (secured to the TV) to the horizontal plate (secured to the wall). These seem to prevent the unit from being accidentally dislodged ;however, on my unit they do not absolutely eliminate the possibility of the TV being moved left/right. It seems unlikely that "small, curious hands" could facilitate this.

There are cords with plastic beads on the ends that hang down from the brackets on the TV. You pull down on them, pivot the bottom of the TV forward, and lift I off the mounts. They are a little stubborn, sonyou may have to mess with them a bit to get them to release. You shouldn't have to use any extreme force, though.

We don't dismount it for travel. The TV locks into place, so you don't have to. We have a 32 in mounted on one and a 19 in mounted on the other mount and have taken several trips with no issues. Hope this helps. :)

The mount will move horizontally. I have not needed to lock mine into a fixed horizontal position so it will move if I push on the left or right side of the tv.
