WARNING
•Do not begin to install your Peerless product until you have read and understood the instructions and warnings contained in this Installation Sheet. If you have any questions regarding any of the instructions or warnings, call Peerless customer service at 1-800-729-0307.
•This product should only be installed by someone of good mechanical aptitude, has experience with basic building construction, and fully understands these instructions.
•Make sure that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached hardware and components.
•Never mount this product to a metal stud wall construction unless the stud can be verified to be constructed of 25 gauge steel minimum, the drywall is 1/2" thick minimum and you obtain and use the Peerless accessory kit for metal studs.
•Never exceed the Maximum UL Load Capacity.
•If mounting to wood wall stud wall construction, make sure that mounting screws are anchored into the center of the studs. Use of an "edge to edge" stud finder is highly recommended.
•Always use an assistant or mechanical lifting equipment to safely lift and position equipment.
•Tighten screws and nuts firmly, but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage the items, greatly reducing their holding power. See suggested torque values where applicable within these instructions.
IMPORTANT! Certain types of walls require additional mounting hardware...

For Wood Stud Walls (for concrete skip to step 4) drill three 5/32" (4 mm) dia. holes 2 1/2" (65 mm)
deep. Attach wall bracket (F) using #14 x 2.5 (6 mm x 65 mm) wood screws (A) and plastic bushings (B).
WARNING
•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 studs. The use of an "edge to edge" stud finder is highly recommended.

WARNING
•If your model does not include concrete fasteners, contact customer service for the appropriate accessory kit to install the product on concrete or cinder block.
•When installing Peerless wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of 1-3/8" of actual concrete surface in the 5/16" diameter 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 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 wall will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached hardware and components.
•Never exceed the Maximum UL Load Capacity.
