• Installer must verify that the wall will safely support four times the combined weight of all attached equipment and
hardware.

Use stud finder to locate stud centers. Place wall plate (AA) on wall as template, level wall plate and mark center

of studs with pencil. Drill three 5/32" (4 mm) dia. holes 2-1/2" (65 mm) deep. Att ach wall plate (AA) using three #14
x 2.5" wood screws (CC).

Skip to step 2 on page 7.

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.

• 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.

Installation to Solid Concrete or Cinder Block

WARNING

• When installing Westinghouse 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 wall will safely support four times the combined load of the equipment and all attached hardware
and components.

Use wall plate (AA), making sure that it is level, as

1

a template to mark holes. Drill four 1/4" (6 mm) dia.
holes to a minimum depth of 2-1/2" (64 mm). Insert
anchors (EE) in holes flush with wall as shown
(right). Place wall plate over anchors and secure
with #14 x 2.5" screws (CC). Tighten all fasteners.

WARNING

• Tighten screws so that wall plate is firmly 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.).

WARNING

• Always attach concrete expansion anchors directly to
load-bearing concrete.

• Never attach concrete expansion anchors to con­crete covered with plaster, drywall, or other finishing
material. If mounting to concrete surfaces covered
with a finishing surface is unavoidable, the finishing
surface must be counterbored as shown below. If
plaster/drywall is thicker than 5/8", custom fasteners
must be supplied by installer .

Installing Adapter Brackets

T o prevent scratching the screen, set a cloth on a flat, level surface that will support the weight of the screen. Place

2

screen face side down. If screen has knobs on the back, remove them to allow the adapter brackets to be attached.
Place adapter brackets (BB) on back of screen, align to holes, and center on back of screen as shown in figure 2.1.
Refer to step 1 to determine the proper fasteners to use. Attach the adapter brackets to the back of the screen using
the appropriate combination of screws, multi-washers (O), and spacers as shown in figure 2.2. Verify that all holes are
properly aligned, and then tighten screws using a phillips screwdriver .

WARNING

X

• Tighten screws so adapter brackets are 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.

Notes:

• The number of fasteners used will vary ,
depending upon the type of screen.

• Spacers may not be used, depending upon
the type of screen.
