Can I screw the TV into the swivelstand to stabilize it? Right now the TV is screwed into a stationary TV stand so I (or my cat) can't knock it over.

I am not very handy, but I would think you could screw it into the top piece as long as it doesn't interfere with the bottom where the swivel mechanism is. Good luck it's very sturdy and has worked well for me.

Yes, I bet you can as the stand is thick. My TV is old and quite heavy, so not an issue. I am still happy I bought this.

No idea. Consult a technician. Mine works beautifully even with the addition of a Boze music component. Try a different stabilizing method?

You can't screw the TV into the swivel stand. However I have a cat and dog who like to jump and rub against things and it is very stable. Hasn't fallen once! Hope that helps!

I suppose you could, it's pretty sturdy. My 70" weighs over 100 pounds so there's no way it could be knocked over.

I guess you can but The bottom part of the unit is probably not sturdy enough to hold the TV.

No - this mount doesn't allow for rotation. You could likely mount it either way, but cannot rotate it without unsecuring the TV/monitor and reattaching.

Personally, I wouldn't put it back on the stand. They break...I on my second TV do to faulty stand. I will soon be hanging mine. I can see the TV starting to lean forward. It didnt start out that way.

I didn't. But my tv stand is quite wide, and I don't have anyone trampling through the room it's located. Also, it's sitting cata cornered, and if it did tilt, it would only land against the wall.

You do not absolutely need to bolt it down, BUT do you really want to put something like a TV on a moving shelf that is not secure to it's foundation. Will it move and swivel without securing it to something . . . YES, is it very risky to do so . . . YES, would I recommend it . . . NO.

Yes but it needs to be tightened down which limits swivel. I put a heavy TV on it and it works fine but I can't remove it the way I mounted it and wish I had tightened down the swivel all the way as I don't use that feature. If you want it to swivel probably not good for heavy tv

Hi, no the stand does not swivel and it is not adjustable. It is fixed - and you have to fix it to the rear mounting plate with the included screws or it will topple over. It comes with 3 screws to fix the base to the stem/plate, and then 4 more screws to fix the back plate which is attached to the stand to the TV. Once it is all connected it is very sturdy however. It can be mounted to a wall with a different plate. Hope this info helps.

HERMAN S. BASKERVILLE, No, the stand on the UN50HU8550 does not swivel. Thanks for your interest in Samsung televisions. --Mr. S

TV has two swivel points. One at the joint of the wall and second at the joint to attach TV. Thus, yes as long as wall doesn't obstruct TV movement.

Hmmm, you would have to create some type of makeshift way to do it. The feet of the unit have slots, apparently for wall hanging, although that would be awkward and the unit would be upside down. If your TV is hanging on a wall bracket, you may be able to install a shelf above or below it. I did that with my television and was able to use L brackets and mount the shelf directly to the top of the TV bracket.

No. You should be able to remove the TV's stand and using the same bolts, bolt the TV to the adjustable stand.

All of the posted answers are wrong. The TV will rotate just a few degrees on the supplied stand. since the rotating ability is so small you may or may not be able to adjust enough.

You can take the stand off of the TV and loosen the screws a little bit so that you can move the mount around and make sure it is level. Tighten the screws back up before putting the TV back on the stand, and make sure your TV is secure and won't fall over while you are adjusting the stand. :)

This is for you! The base stays put while the top swivels. I like this product a lot and recommend it, especially for older, heavier television sets (which I will not get rid of - who needs HD or 3D?). Hope this helps you decide!

I have a 50 inch led tv so I didn't want to take a chance of having it crash down. So I wall mounted mine but I've put a lot of weight on it and it didn't even budge. I would suggest to wall mount your tv just to be safe though

No way to attach to it. The TV set is separate from the stand. It's just a simple stand. Though the stand itself is actually very strong
