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 fi rmly 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.).
• Never mount this product to metal studs.
• 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.
• 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.
• Never exceed the Maximum UL Load Capacity of 200 lb (91 kg).
Wall plate (A) can be mounted to two studs that are 16" apart. Use a stud fi nder to locate the edges of the studs.
1
Use of an edge-to-edge stud fi nder 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 4.3" below the
desired screen 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 7/32" dia. holes 3" deep. Make sure that the wall plate is level, secure it
using eight 5/16 x 3" wood screws (O) and washers (P).

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" 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" 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 supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached
hardware and components.
Use wall plate (A), making sure that it is level, as
1
a template to mark holes. The top mounting slots
should be located .43" below the desired screen
center. Use the masonry bit to drill 3/8" (10mm)
dia. holes to a minimum depth of 3" (76 mm). Insert
anchors (V) in holes fl ush with wall as shown (right).
Place wall plate (A) over anchors (V) and secure
with 5/16 x 3" wood screws (O) and washers (P).

WARNING
• Tighten wood 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.).
• Always attach concrete expansion anchors directly
to load-bearing concrete.
• 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. If plaster/drywall is thicker than
5/8", custom fasteners must be supplied by installer
(not evaluated by UL).
