Determine the Vertical Position of the Housing:
This image at right shows that the further out a mantle extends, the more it will
interfere with the arc of the lowering TV. The chart below gives clearance heights
from the bottom of the TV to the top of various mantel sizes.
However, the MM860 Lift Housing {30} is often located even higher on the wall
than the TV. To locate the TV so it has enough clearance and doesn’t hit the
mantel, you will need to know how much higher the Housing is than the bottom of
the TV. Then you can locate the Housing on the wall.
NOTE: If there is extra space available, due to a high ceiling for example, then
these heights are only minimum requirements.
