While the ZeboZAP mount comes with all necessary hardware, it's good to have a few basic tools on hand:

• Phillips screwdriver
• Level
• Measuring tape

Ensure you have a sturdy ladder if you're working at height.

2. Choose the Perfect Spot

Select a location for your TV that provides optimal viewing angles and is sheltered from direct sunlight and rain as much as possible. Consider the layout of your outdoor space and the position of seating areas.

3. Prepare the Mount

Unbox your ZeboZAP DIY Swivelling Gazebo TV Mount and lay out all the parts. Review the instruction manual to familiarize yourself with the components and the assembly process.

4. Attach the Mounting Bracket to Your TV

Begin by attaching the VESA-compatible mounting bracket to the back of your TV. The ZeboZAP mount supports VESA patterns of 75x75mm, 100x100mm, 200x100mm, and 200x200mm. Match the bracket holes with the corresponding holes on your TV and secure them with the provided screws. Ensure the bracket is firmly attached and level.

5. Secure the Mount to the Post

The ZeboZAP mount is designed to be strapped onto posts larger than 3" in diameter. This versatility allows it to be used on various post shapes and sizes, including round, square, triangular, and hexagonal posts.

• Wrap the included straps around the post or pillar where you want to mount the TV.
• Tighten the straps to secure the mount in place. Ensure the mount is level before fully tightening the straps.
• Double-check the stability of the mount to make sure it’s firmly secured and won’t move.

6. Attach the TV to the Mount

With the mounting bracket securely attached to your TV and the mount firmly in place on the post, it's time to attach the TV to the mount.

• Lift the TV and align the bracket with the mount.
• Carefully hook the bracket onto the mount and secure it using the provided screws or locking mechanism.
• Ensure the TV is securely attached and check that it can swivel smoothly for optimal viewing angles.

One of the key features of the ZeboZAP DIY Swivelling Gazebo TV Mount is its 180° rotation capability. Adjust the TV to your preferred viewing angle. This flexibility ensures you can watch your favorite shows or movies from various spots in your outdoor space.

Maintenance Tips

To keep your outdoor TV setup in top condition, consider the following maintenance tips:

• Regular Checks: Periodically check the straps and mounting hardware to ensure everything remains secure.
