Installation to Double Wood Stud Wall
1Wall plate (AA) can be mounted to two studs that are 16" apart. Use a stud finder to locate the edges of the studs.
Useofanedge-to-edgestudfinder is highly recommended. Based on their edges, draw a vertical line down each
stud’s center. Place wall plate on wall as a template.The top mounting slots should be 2.5" above the desired
screen center as shown in figure 1.1. Level plate, and mark the center of the four mounting holes. Make sure that the
mounting holes are on the stud centerlines. Drill four 5/32" (4 mm) dia. holes 2-1/2" (65 mm) deep. Make sure that
the wall plate is level, secure it using four #14 x 2.5" wood screws (DD) as shown in figure 1.2.
Note: Wall plate may be mounted up to 4" (102 mm) off center as shown in figure 1.1.
Skip to step 2 on page 6.
• Installermust verify that the supporting surface will safelysupport the combined load of the equipment and allattached
hardwareandcomponents.
• Tightenwood screws so that wall plateisfirmly attached, but do not overtighten. Overtighteningcan damage the
screws,greatly reducing theirholding 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
highlyrecommended.
• Hardwareprovided is for attachment ofmount through standard thickness drywallor plaster into wood studs.Installers
areresponsible to providehardware for othertypes of mounting situations.

Installation to Solid Concrete or Cinder Block
1Make sure that wall plate (AA) is level, use it as a
template to mark four mountingholes. The top
mountinghole should be 2.5" above the desired screen
center as shown in figure 1.1 on page 4. Drill four 1/4"
(6 mm) dia. holes to a minimum depth of 2.5" (64 mm).
Insert anchors (EE) in holes flush with wall as shown
(right).Placewall plate over anchors and secure with
#14 x 2.5" screws (DD). Level, then tighten all
fasteners.
• When installing Westinghouse wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of 1-3/8" of actual con-
crete 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
avoidbreaking out the back ofthe hole when entering avoid or cavity.
• Concrete must be 2000 psi density minimum. Lighter density concrete may not hold concrete anchor.
• Makesurethatthesupporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached hard-
wareand components.

• Neverattach concreteanchors to concretecovered
withplaster, drywall, orother finishing material. If

• Tighten screws so that wall plate is firmly attached,
but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage
screws, greatly reducing their holding power.
