The installation instructions say to fix the TV to a table to prevent from tilting forward. Do I really have to do this?

The 47-inch is perfectly stable without attaching it to the table. I've even tested this by pushing gently on the top rear of the TV to see if it tilts forward. I'm not sure about the 55-inch.

I believe it must be set prior to mounting the TV. There are tightening screws that can't accessed otherwise.

I believe that is correct, or it will be very difficult to tilt while TV is attached.

Reverse install. Remove TV, loosen screw at the top and the L assembly will come down. Remove the lag bolts from frame.

I read somewhere that if you are standing up, the top of the TV needs to be at eye level and if you are sitting down, the bottom frame of the TV needs to be at eye level. That said, I have options on my mount to swivel & tilt it a bit for minor adjustment. I have had it mounted this way for a couple months now without any neck aches. :)

Yes, you can slide the TV in either direction and then tighten the lower screws to secure it in place.

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.

My husband did all the work building it. The park connected to the tv hooks into the mount on the wall. If you need to adjust the tilt just simply unhook the tv and adjust the tilt to your preference. If that answered your question. I don't think you need a tool to adjust the tilt.

I had a problem with two of the mounts Timothy mentioned. Both, once installed tilted to the left. As if the left side of the tv is too heavy. I returned the first one and then had a new one, it did the same thing. Instead of returning it too, I made due with it.

The TV can be tilted up or down, side to side to level it and also from left to right for viewing. The TV definitely does not have to be removed. If you are trying to level it (one side is higher than the other), pull the TV forward (out) and loosen the four allen bolts on the backplate of the TV. Level it, retighten, and then push the TV back into your preferred position.

No. I would not worry about it. I would look for some additional clamps for the wire though. Tip...make sure to keep the wire short and it will help the TV stay closer to the wall.

Hey just set mine up tonight and it tilts foward! Did you end up fixing the issue?

Same problem here. I just connected the TV to the base without the screw and it seems pretty secure to me on the TV stand. Hopefully it not tumble over randomly one day while I am at work...

Make sure that the brackets which attach to the TV have the adjustment screws on the bottom. Also, do not over-tighten the adjustment screws. Hope this helps!

TV doesn't tilt or sag. Don't know about the screws as my husband recently passed on so can't ask him.

No, the bracket does not allow the TV to tilt up and down...only left/right and forward/backward.

You can adjust left to right slightly with the knobs on the bracket behind the television. If this doesn't work, it's not level enough and you need to remount it.
