Main tv mount in 3200 Voltage

How do you remove the main tv from its mount? I've had the sound bar and top trim off and still can't find any release mechanism.

With the sound bar and trim off the top just lift up and out, I don't think there is a release on the main tv's.

Thanks...knowing it should come off, I'll put more force on it next time. I was afraid I might break something loose when it didn't lift easily.

Just wondering if the TV came lose and if so how much pressure did you have to apply ? Like you I am afraid of breaking something so didn't put much pressure on it ..

Here is what the rear of your main TV should look like... along with the mount. It just takes a good nudge upward from the bottom to break it loose, and then it comes off easily:

That is how mine is in the 3950. The TV sat too close to the wall to run cables around the edges and only three knobs would ever catch. We moved the mount out by placing wood on it and building it out. Much easier to remove now. Did the same with the sound bar and took the time to center it on the TV.

I just want to get to the HDMI input so I can connect my Google Chromecast .. but like you say it's so close to the wall on each side I have to un-mount the TV to get to it. I like your idea of moving the TV forward by even 1/2 inch to get wires etc. behind it. Tks again.

That's why I took mine down also... but instead of rebuilding the mount, I simply bought a couple of 24" USB & HDMI extension cables for my Apple TV and thumb-drives. So now I can easily switch things in/out and update the tv software when desired.

I pulled the fixed mount and installed a swing out/tilt mount. Works nicely and snugs up for travel with the straps.
