OPERATING MANUAL AND USER GUIDE

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing a Wharfedale Pro WPB Series Wall Mount Accessory. The WPB brackets are heavy-duty wall mounting bracket systems that will provide secure

and versatile mounting for a variety of Wharfedale Pro speaker models including the Titan™, Programme and SI-X Series. In addition speakers from 3rd party manufacturers that have compatible standardized footprints can also be mounted using the WPB Series.

The WPB Series were designed to cater for the comprehensive positioning requirements needed for proper speaker placement in permanent loudspeaker installations. All steel construction assures accurate, secure adjustments and reliability over time.

There are ten wall mounting points available on the wall plate. These mounting points allow for a multitude of mounting options on the widest range of wall types. Be sure to use proper devices to secure the bracket and consider the wall construction and materials. Also take into consideration the weight of the speaker and bracket when determining which method will provide the best option for safety, strength and durability.

INSTALLATION

Multiple mounting points are available on the wall plate for strong and secure mounting. Once a suitable location is found for the mounting of the bracket safely secure the wall plate to the wall, ensuring that it is level and mounted properly. Ensure that there is adequate support for the weight of the speaker and bracket. Consider the construction and materials used in the wall, and be sure to center the mounting points squarely in wall studs or supports with adequate screw lengths.

Once the wall plate is securely mounted the arm mechanism should be attached using the provided nut and bolt.

The tilt mechanism includes a mounting plate for attaching to the bottom of the speaker. The tilt mechanism can be mounted directly on the arm with the provided hardware. Alternatively the tilt mechanism can be mounted to the bottom of the speaker prior to attaching it to the arm. Adjust the tilt to the desired angle and secure with the provided nuts and bolts, ensure

that all nuts and bolts are tightened sufciently to hold the desired speaker in position.
