Installation to Wood Stud Wall

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 firmly attached, 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 finder is highly recommended.

•Hardware provided is for attachment of mount through standard thickness drywall or plaster into wood studs. Installers are responsible to provide hardware for other types of mounting situations (not evaluated by UL).

1	Wall plate (A) can be mounted to two studs that are 16" apart. Use a stud finder to locate the edges of the studs.
	Use of an edge-to-edge stud finder is highly recommended. Based on their edges, draw a vertical line down each

stud’s center. Place wall plate on wall as a template. The top mounting slots should be located at your desired display center. Level plate, and mark the center of the eight mounting holes. Make sure that the mounting holes are on the stud centerlines. Drill eight 3/16" (5mm) dia. holes 3" (76mm) deep. Make sure that the wall plate is level, secure it using eight 5/16 x 3" wood screws (O) and washers (P).

• Never mount this product to metal studs without the required accessory.

Installation to Solid Concrete or Cinder Block Wall

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 specifications. 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 supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached hardware and components.

1	Use wall plate (A), making sure that it is level, as
	a template to mark holes. The top mounting slots

should be located at your desired display center. Use the masonry bit to drill 3/8" (10mm) dia. holes to a minimum depth of 3" (76mm). Insert anchors (W) in holes flush with wall as shown (right). Place wall plate (A) over anchors (W) and secure with 5/16 x 3" wood screws (O) and washers (P).

WARNING

•Tighten screws so that wall plate is firmly 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.).

•Always attach concrete expansion anchors directly to load-bearing concrete.

•Never attach concrete expansion anchors to concrete covered with plaster, drywall, or other finishing material. If mounting to concrete surfaces covered with a finishing surface is unavoidable (not evaluated by UL), the finishing 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).

Installing Adapter Brackets

WARNING

•Tighten screws so adapter brackets are firmly attached. Do not tighten with excessive force. Overtightening can cause stress damage to screws, greatly reducing their holding power and possibly causing screw heads to become detached. Tighten to 40 in. • lb (4.5 N.M.) maximum torque.

•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.

7	To prevent scratching the display, set a cloth on a flat, level surface that will support the weight of the display.
	Place display face side down. If display has knobs on the back, remove them to allow the adapter brackets to be

attached. Place adapter brackets (BB) on back of display, align to holes, and center on back of display as shown below. Attach the adapter brackets to the back of the display using the appropriate combination of screws, multiwashers, and spacers as shown in figure 7.1 and figure 7.2.

NOTE: Top and bottom holes on display must always be used.

Verify that all holes are properly aligned, and then tighten screws using a phillips screwdriver. NOTE: If using security screws, tighten using security allen wrench (CC).
