Installation to Wood Stud Wall
Using a stud fi nder, locate and mark the edges of the wood stud used in mounting this product. Use of an edge to
1
edge stud fi nder is highly recommended. Use a level to draw a vertical line down the center of the stud. Use wall
plate as template to mark center of holes along the vertical line. Drill two 5/32" (4mm) dia. holes 2-1/2" (64mm)
deep. Attach wall arm assembly (AA) to wall using two #14 x 2-1/2" fl at head wood screws (D) as shown in fi gure
1.1.
WARNING
• Installer must verify that the supporting surface will
safely support the combined load of the equipment
and all attached hardware and components.
• Tighten wood screws so that wall plate is fi rmly at-
tached, but do not overtighten. Overtightening can
damage the screws, greatly reducing their holding
power.
• Never tighten in excess of 80 in. • lb (9 N.M.).
• Make sure that mounting screws are anchored into
the center of the stud. The use of an "edge to edge"
stud fi nder is highly recommended.

Installation to Solid Concrete and Cinder Block
WARNING
• When installing Peerless wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of 1-3/8" (35mm) of actual
concrete thickness in the hole to be used for the concrete anchors. Do not drill into mortar joints! Be sure to mount
in a solid part of the block, generally 1" (25mm) minimum from the side of the block. Cinder block must meet ASTM
C-90 specifi cations. It is suggested that a standard electric drill on slow setting is used to drill the hole instead of a
hammer drill to avoid breaking out the back of the hole when entering a void or cavity.
• Concrete must be 2000 psi density minimum. Lighter density concrete may not hold concrete anchor.
• Make sure that the wall will safely support four times the combined load of the equipment and all attached hardware
and components.
Level and use wall plate as template to mark
1
center of holes. Drill two 5/16" (8mm) dia. holes
to a minimum depth of 2-1/2" (64mm). Insert
anchors (F) in holes fl ush with wall. Place wall
arm assembly (AA) over anchor and secure with
wood screws (D). Make sure wall arm is level, and
tighten all fasteners.
WARNING
• Tighten screws so that wall plate is fi rmly attached,
but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage
screws, greatly reducing their holding power.
• Never tighten in excess of 80 in. • lb (9 N.M.).
• Never attach concrete expansion anchors to concrete
covered with plaster, drywall, or other fi nishing
material. If mounting to concrete surfaces covered
with a fi nishing surface is unavoidable (not evaluated
by UL), the fi nishing surface must be counterbored
as shown below. Be sure concrete anchors do not
pull away from concrete when tightening screws. If
plaster/drywall is thicker than 5/8" (16mm), custom
fasteners must be supplied by installer (not evaluated
by UL).

Attaching Front Plate to Display Using VESA 75 or 100mm Mounting Patterns
WARNING
• If screws don't get three complete turns in the display inserts or if screws bottom out and bracket is still not tightly
secured, damage may occur to display or product may fail.
Insert two M4 x 12mm screws (A) into top two
2
holes of display, leaving approximately 1/4" (6mm)
of exposed thread. Hook screws onto keyslots of
adapter plate as indicated in fi gures 2.1 and 2.2.
*NOTE: If hole pattern is in a pocket, insert two
M4 x 20mm screws (B) with two retaining spacers
(C) into top two holes of display as indicated right.
Insert two M4 screws (A or B) through bottom
holes of adapter plate as shown in fi gure 2.3.

OPTIONAL
NOTE: Adjustment points (socket screws) are factory torqued for optimal performance. This factory torque setting is
recommended to prevent the display from slipping over time. If more or less tension is desired follow this optional
step. You may not achieve optimal torque value if factory torque settings are adjusted.
If more or less tension is desired in the tilt mechanism, do the following:
• To adjust tilt, insert a fl at head screw driver into slot and remove cap covering the socket screw. Tighten or loosen
socket screw no more than half a turn using 5mm allen wrench (E) as shown in detail 1.
• To adjust roll, remove snap caps covering the 10-32 nylock nuts as shown in detail 1. Loosen 10-32 nylock nuts half
a turn and adjust roll position. Retighten 10-32 nylock nuts after display is in desired roll position.
WARNING
• Do not loosen socket screws or nylock nuts to the point they become disengaged from the mount. Doing so may
cause the display to fall.
