Installation to Single 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.).
• 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 (not evaluated by UL).
Using a stud fi nder, locate and mark the edges of the wood stud. Use a level to draw a vertical line down the center
1
of the stud and mark the desired display center. Use wall plate template (wall arm) to mark center of holes along
the vertical line. The top mounting hole should be 6.23" (158mm) above the desired display center as shown in
fi gure 1.1. Drill four 5/32" (4mm) dia. holes to a depth of 2.5" (64mm). Attach wall arm (A) to wall with four wood
screws (C) using #3 phillips screwdriver bit (M) as shown in fi g. 1.2. Level then tighten all fasteners.
Insert four fastener caps (F) into wall plate mounting holes.

Installation to Solid Concrete or 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 supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached
hardware and components.
Mark the desired display center and use wall plate
1
template (wall plate) to mark mounting holes. Center
of display mounting plate will be .25" offset from
center of stud (mounting hole) as shown in fi gure
1.1 on page 5. The top mounting hole should be
6.23" (158mm) above the desired display center as
shown in fi gure 1.1. Drill four 5/16" (8mm) dia. holes
2.5" (64mm) deep as shown in fi gure 1.3. Insert
anchors (D) into holes fl ush with wall. Place wall
arm (A) over anchors and secure with four wood
screws (C) using #3 screwdriver bit (M). Level then
tighten all fasteners.
Insert four fastener caps (F) into wall plate mounting
holes.

• 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.).
• 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. 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 fi rmly 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.
For VESA 200 x 200 mounting pattern, skip to step 4 on page 9.
To prevent scratching the display, set a cloth on a fl at, 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 (B) 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,
multi-washers, and spacers as shown in steps 2-1 or 2-2.
NOTE: Top and bottom mounting holes on display must be used for attaching brackets.
NOTE: Verify that all holes are properly aligned, and then tighten screws using a phillips screwdriver.

For Flat Back Display
2-1
Begin with the shortest length screw, hand thread through multi-washer and adapter bracket into display as shown
below. Screw must make at least three full turns into the mounting hole and fi t snug into place. Do not overtighten.
If screw cannot make three full turns into the display, select a longer length screw from the baffl ed fastener pack.
Repeat for remaining mounting holes, level brackets and tighten screws.
NOTE: Spacers may not be used, depending upon the type of display.
