Installation and setup should only be carried out by qualified and

Prevention of Accidents (RPA).
It is the responsibility of the person installing the assembly to ensure
that the suspension/fixing points are suitable for the intended use.
Always carry out a visual and functional inspection of the items
before use. In case you have any doubt as to the proper
functioning and safety of the items, these must be withdrawn from
use immediately.

1.4 Mounting options and angle settings
Mounting holes are provided on the tie bar of the bracket.
One 9 mm (0.35") hole is provided at each end of the tie bar for
fixing the bracket directly to walls or ceilings or other suitable
surfaces.
Two 9 mm (0.35") holes at the d&b standard spacing of 115 mm
(4.5") are provided to allow the attachment of the Z5010 TV
spigot and the Z5012 Pipe clamp.
Each end of the bracket is equipped with a 9 mm (0.35")
elongated hole. This elongated hole allows a multitude of cabinet
positions, e.g. with a low ceiling height the cabinet can be
mounted as close as possible to the ceiling.
Angles can be set within the range of 180° (± 90° as standard). In
general, angle settings depend on the chosen position of the
cabinet within the bracket.
1.5 Assembly
Attaching the bracket to walls or ceilings
NOTICE!
Only use mounting parts (fixing anchors and screws) that are

table.
Application Rated extraction forces
Wall mounting 400 N

To remove the cap, proceed as follows:
1. Cut out the cap along the recessed spline using an
appropriate cutting knife.
