Step 1: Attach Wall Plate to Wall
A. INSTALLING IN DRYWALL (TIMBER FRAME)
WARNING: If attaching this TV Wall Mount using this method, you MUST spread the wall plate across 2 wall studs.
Wall studs can be 450mm or 600mm apart depending upon the position of the wall and the geographical state
you live in. The Crest Company will not accept any damages that may occur if only 1 stud is used.
The Crest Company holds no responsibility for incorrectly installed TV Wall Mounts.
1. Locate the centre of 2 adjacent timber studs using the supplied stud finder with spirit level.
(NOTE: You must use the centre of the stud to avoid cracking or splitting the timber during installation).
2. Mark a minimum of 4 fixing holes over stud centres using the wall plate as a guide - position 2 at either end of the wall
plate (see Figure 1). Ensure plate is level.
3. Pre-drill holes to a minimum depth of 50mm using a high speed 4.5mm drill bit. If installing in hardwood, larger diameter
and deeper holes may be required.
4. Attach the wall plate using the lag bolts (W-A) through the washers (W-C). Do not over tighten.
B. INSTALLING IN MASONRY
WARNING: Ensure you have a minimum of 35mm of actual concrete/brick thickness in the hole for the anchors.
Do not drill into mortar joints. Installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined weight of
the TV Wall Mount and TV. The Crest Company holds no responsibility for incorrectly installed TV Wall Mounts.
1. Mark a minimum of four fixing holes (preferably 6) using wall plate as a guide - position 2 at either end of the wall plate (see
Figure 2). Ensure plate is level.
2. Pre-drill holes to a minimum depth of 60mm using 10mm masonry drill bit. Clean out holes.
3. Fully insert concrete anchors (W-B). Tap in with hammer if required.
4. Attach wall plate by inserting the lag bolts (W-A) through the washers (W-C) into each concrete anchor (W-B)
(see Figure 2). Do not over tighten.
Using the Stud Finder with Spirit Level
HOW IT WORKS:
• Use this stud finder on drywall (timber supports) only
• The stud finder accurately locates metal pipes, AC wires,
studs and wooden frames
• The stud finder LED indicator flashes GREEN when an
object is detected
• The stud finder can detect the depth of:
WOOD: up to 20mm, wood should be detected based
on the thickness of the drywall less than 20mm
METAL: up to 50mm, metal should be detected based
on the thickness of the drywall less than 50mm
VOLTAGE: up to 70mm, AC wires should be detected
based on the thickness of drywall less than 70mm
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Keep the stud finder in touch with the drywall.
2. Press the ON/OFF button until the LED indicator turns
RED. Do not move the stud finder.
3. Wait 3 to 10 seconds until the LED indicator turns GREEN,
then start moving the stud finder on the drywall.
4. The GREEN LED indicator will start flashing when an
object is detected.
5. Mark a point on the wall using your pencil, then continue
moving the stud finder until the GREEN LED indicator
stops flashing, mark another point on your wall.
6. The midpoint between the two marks on your wall
is the centre of the stud.
