WARNING! - When mounting this product it is recommended to determine the location selected will support at least two times (2x)
the total weight of the speaker. When mounting this product to a electrical box location, inspect this location to determine if the box
is properly attached to a support stud (2x4’) with screw/nail & the drywall is in good condition.
ATTACHING THE MOUNT
P. 3/4
To insure proper mounting and maximum security, it is recommended that this
mount is installed into a wood joist/stud or other solid surface that will support
at a minimum, 2 times the total weight of the speaker.
If installation requires the use of drywall anchors (not included) please select
quality anchors that best fits the mounting needs of the drywall and can support
3 times the weight of the speaker.
WARNING!
Installing the mount to ceiling.
1. Select location for installation using a stud finder to locate the center of
the wood stud/joist. Mark location for holes using the mount as a template.
2. Pre-Drill 2 pilot holes using a 1/8” drill bit. Take care when drilling to avoid
any wires or pipes that may be behind the wall/ceiling. (Drywall mounting
will follow instructions of anchors)
3. Using the 2 supplied wood screws (Part A) attach the bracket using a #2
Philips screw driver or driver bit (avoid over tightening to prevent stripping
the screw head).
4. Once the bracket is mounted, replace the 2 plastic cover plates.
