WARNING

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE

Before you start

  • Three or more people are required to handle the TV to detach the stands.
  • A standard flat-head screwdriver is required to detach the stand. It's recommended to add tape to the tip of the screwdriver to prevent scratching the TV.

  • Avoid using excessive force while detaching the table-top stands from the TV as it may cause the TV to fall resulting in personal injury or physical damage to the TV.
  • As you detach the table-top stands, be careful when lifting the TV because the table-top stand may fall and cause injury or damage to the surface that the TV is sitting on.
  • If you are mounting the TV on a wall, make sure all mounting hardware is installed on the back of the TV and the wall prior to removing the stands.

Instructions to remove the stand

Instructions are provided to remove the table-top stand from an upright position or when lying face down. Follow the instructions for the desired method.

Remove the stands with the TV in an upright position

Note: Be sure to store the removed stands in a safe place in case you want to use the TV on a table in the future. The table-top stands cannot be purchased separately.

I am about to set up my new 43" Q6.

I planned to insert the legs while I checked everything, and then intend to mount it on the wall. However, I have seen some issues raised about removing the legs once they are installed.

Can anyone give me some advice?

Thanks.

The legs are easily removed, they do not click into place when inserted and so can just be pulled out. If they feel stiff, just give it a few light wacks with ur palm, making sure to support the tv from the frame.

@ChrisO52: Please can you confirm the full model number of the TV, located on the sticker on the back of the device, and I will look into this for you?
