Installation to Wood Stud Wall
WARNING
• Make sure that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached
hardware and components.
Using a stud finder, locate the edges of the wood studs used in mounting this product. Use of an edge-to-edge stud
1
finder is highly recommended. Based on its edges and using a level, draw a vertical line down the center of each
stud. Mark a point (point 1) on the right stud centerline 2.1" above the center of screen as shown in figure 1.1. Hold
wall plate (AA) over point 1. Using a level to ensure plate is horizontal, mark three more points (points 2, 3, and 4)
as shown in figure 1.2.
Drill 5/32" diameter holes 2-1/2" deep through studs at the four points.
Loosely fasten wall plate (AA) to wall using four #14 x 2-1/2" wood screws (CC) as shown in figure 1.3.
Note: For ease of installation, start with the top right wood screw first and work counterclockwise.
Level, hold, and then tighten all screws.
Skip to step 2 on page 6.

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 stud. The use of an "edge to edge"
stud finder is highly recommended.

Installation to Solid Concrete and 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 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.
Position wall plate (AA) on wall so that upper slots
1
are 2.1" above desired center of screen. Use wall
plate (AA), making sure that it is level, as a template
to mark holes. Drill four 5/16" (8 mm) dia. holes to a
minimum depth of 2-1/2" (64 mm). Concrete must be
2000 psi density minimum. Insert anchors (DD) in
holes flush with wall as shown in figure 1.4. Place
wall plate (AA) over anchors and secure with
#14 x 2-1/2" (6 mm x 64 mm) wood screws (CC) as
shown in figure 1.5. Make sure wall plate is level and
tighten all fasteners.

WARNING
• Tighten wood screws firmly , 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.).
• Concrete anchors are not intended for attachment to
concrete wall covered with a layer of plaster, drywall,
or other finishing material as shown right. If mounting
to concrete wall covered with plaster/drywall is unavoidable, plaster/drywall (up to 5/8" thick) 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", custom fasteners must be supplied by installer.

separately) using four M5 screws provided with plate as shown.
WARNING
• Tighten screws so interface bracket is 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.
