The mount allows the TV to pull outward from the wall and then down and further away so that it clears your mantle. A handy guide is included with dimensions so that you know what the minimal distance is you have to mount it above the mantle (based on mantle depth) so that you will safely clear it. I have taken the lazy approach since I rent, not own and was not looking for a truly flawless installation as I anticipate moving someday anyways so I did not paint the covers for the mount.
