Using a stud finder, locate the edges of the wood studs used in mounting this product. Use of an edge-to-edge stud
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 4-5/8" 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 (DD) 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.
Installation to Wood Stud Wall
• 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.
WARNING
• 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 are 4-5/8"
above desired center of screen. Use wall plate (AA), making
sure that it is level, as a template to mark holes. Drill four 1/4"
(6 mm) dia. holes to a minimum depth of 2-1/2" (64 mm).
Concrete must be 2000 psi density minimum. Insert anchors
(EE) in holes flush with wall as shown (right). Place wall plate
(AA) over anchors and secure with #14 x 2-1/2" (6 mm x 65
mm) wood screws (DD). Make sure wall plate is level and
tighten all fasteners.

• 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.).
WARNING
•When installing 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 meetASTM C-90 specifica-
tions. 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.
WARNING

fig 1.4
• 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 right. 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.

Note: "X" dimensions should be equal.
• 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.)

WARNING
Installing Adapter Brackets
Refer to Screen Compatibility Chart to determine the proper fasteners to use.
To prevent scratching the screen, set a cloth on a flat, level surface that will support the weight of the screen. Place
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 or CC) on back of screen, align to holes, and center on back of screen as shown in
figure 2.1. Attach the adapter brackets to the back of the screen using the appropriate combination of screws, multi-
washers, and spacers as shown in figure 2.3.
Note: Top and bottom holes must always be used.
Verify that all holes are properly aligned, and then tighten screws using a phillips screwdriver.
• If screws don't get three complete turns in the screen
inserts or if screws bottom out and bracket is still not
tightly secured, damage may occur to screen or
product may fail.
