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.

Use a stud fi nder to locate the edges of the stud. Use of an edge-to-edge stud fi nder is highly recommended.

1

Based on its edges, draw a vertical line down the stud’s center. Place wall plate (B) on wall as a template, making
sure that the three mounting holes are over the stud centerline. The top mounting hole should be 2.5" above the
desired screen center as shown in fi gure 1.1. Level plate, and mark the center of the three holes. Drill three 5/32"
(4 mm) dia. holes 2-1/2" (64 mm) deep. Make sure that the wall plate is level, secure it using three #14 x 2.5" wood
screws (C) as shown in fi gure 1.2.

Installation to Double 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.

Wall plate (B) 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 2.5" above the desired
screen center as shown in fi gure 1.3. Level plate, and mark the center of the four mounting holes. Make sure that
the mounting holes are on the stud centerlines. Drill four 5/32" (4 mm) dia. holes 2-1/2" (64 mm) deep. Make sure
that the wall plate is level, secure it using four #14 x 2.5" wood screws (C) as shown in fi gure 1.4.

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" 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.

Make sure that wall plate (B) is level, use it as a

1

template to mark four mounting holes. The top
mounting hole should be 2.5" above the desired
screen center as shown in fi gure 1.1 on page 4. Drill
four 5/16" (8 mm) dia. holes to a minimum depth of

2.5" (64 mm). Insert anchors (D) in holes fl ush with
wall as shown (right). Place wall plate over anchors
and secure with #14 x 2.5" screws (C). Level, then
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.).

• 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,
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" (16 mm), custom
fasteners must be supplied by installer.

separately) using four M5 screws provided with plate as shown.

WARNING

• Tighten screws so interface bracket is 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.
