Installation

Installing your ScreenWall Mount bracket involves the following steps:

1.Determine theWall Mounting Location

2.Attach the Mounting Plate to theWall

3.Attach the Mounting Brackets to the screen

4.Hang the screen on the Mounting Plate

5.Adjust the ScreenAngle (K2-T-S and K3-T-S only)

6.Position the Cables

Determine the Wall Mounting Location

1.Decide where you want to hang your screen. A good location is near an electrical outlet, and within cable reach of any components you plan to connect to the screen.

!Use common sense when determining the wall mounting location.For example,do not hang your screen over a bed,crib,or child’s play area.

2.Draw a mark on the wall where you want the center of the mounted screen to be located. This will be refered to as the“Mounted screen Center Point” throughout this manual.

3.If you are mounting to a wood stud wall,continue onto the next page. If you are mounting to a concrete or concrete block wall,go to page 7.Warning:

Attach the Mounting Plate to a Wood Stud Wall

If you are mounting to a concrete or concrete block wall,skip this section and go to“Attach the Mounting Plate to a Concrete or Concrete BlockWall”on page 7.

Locate theWall Studs

Wall studs run vertically (up and down) inside the wall,behind the drywall or plaster. You must attach the Mounting Plate to two separate wall studs.

1.Using the stud finder,make a mark at the left and right edges of the two closest studs on each side of the Mounted screen Center Point.

2.Mark the centerline of each stud by holding the level vertically,and drawing a line halfway between the left and right edges of each stud.

These stud centerlines should be vertical,and roughly parallel.If they are not,the studs may not run continuously from floor to ceiling and you must not use them to hang the screen.

		Locate different studs that run
		continuously from floor to
	2" x 4"	ceiling.
		The K2 series mounts require
		the wall studs to be 16 inches
		apart (16 inches on center).
		These mounts cannot be used if
		the wall studs are spaced farther
		apart.
