Removing TV in 282RK

OK dealer was a little stumped during pdi about this:
How do you remove the 26" TV from the entertainment center. It is obvious the thing is right up against the wall and the plug is in crooked it so tight. The FW is now winterized and squeezed in beside the house. I like to remove LCD TVs during the winter (also thinking of replacing it with 32").

Thanks for the response. So it sounds like there is nothing locking it in place.
I'll try yanking on it some more. I was hoping somenone with a Wildcat 282 would chime in (or a rep).

Most of the mounts are the same. A couple pins on back of tv that slides into the channels on the bracket mounted on trailer.

I have the 28RKBS, which is what the 282 used to be. It is as cyclepuck said. Mine lifted up. It wasn't a "just" lifted up, but it did eventually. And getting it back on that stupid little mount proved harder than taking it off. Mainly because you can't see what you're doing, and you can't really reach around there and feel anything either. I am going to replace mine with an extending/reticulating arm eventually.

So the back of the TV must have a plate that mounts with the 4 VESA screws and two "mushrooms" that slide into the wall mount.
