• Donotbegin to install your Westinghouse product until youhavereadand understood the instructions and warnings
contained in this Installation Sheet. If you have any questions regarding any of the instructions or warnings, call
customerservice at1-866-287-5555.
• This product should only be installed by someone of good mechanical aptitude, has experience with basic building
construction, and fully understands these instructions.
• Make sure that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached
hardware and components.
• Never mount this product to a metal stud wall construction unless the stud can be verified to be constructed of 25
gauge steel minimum, the drywall is 1/2" thick minimum and you obtain and use the accessory kit for metal studs.
• Neverexceedthe Maximum ULLoadCapacity.
• If mounting to wood wall stud wall construction, make sure that mounting screws are anchored into the center of the
studs. Use of an "edge to edge" stud finder is highly recommended.
• Always use an assistant or mechanical lifting equipment to safely lift and position equipment.
• Tighten screws firmly, but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage the items, greatly reducing their holding
power. See suggested torque values where applicable within these instructions.

Installation to Wood Stud Wall
Remove cord covers from wall arm assembly (A) as shown in figure 1.1. Using a stud finder, locate and mark the
edges of the wood stud used in mounting this product. Use of an edge to edge stud finder is highly recommended.
Use a level to draw a vertical line down the center of the stud. Use wall plate as template to mark center of holes
along the vertical line. Drill two 5/32" (4 mm) dia. holes 2.5" (65 mm) deep.Attach wall mount (A) to wall using two
#14 x 2.5" flat head wood screws (H) as shown in figure 1.2.

Installation to Solid Concrete and Cinder Block
1
• 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
avoidbreakingout the back of theholewhen entering a void orcavity.
• Concrete must be 2000 psi density minimum. Lighter density concrete may not hold concrete anchor.
• Makesurethatthesupportingsurfacewillsafelysupportthecombinedloadoftheequipmentandallattachedhard-
wareand components.
WARNING
Removecordcoversfrom wall arm assembly (A) as
shown in figure 1.1. Level and use wall plate as
template to mark center of holes. Drill two 1/4" (6
mm) dia. hole to a minimum depth of 2" (51 mm).
Insert anchors (B) in holes flush with wall as shown
in fig 1.3. Place wall mount (A) over anchor and
secure with wood screw (H) as shown in figures 1.4
and 1.6. Make sure wall mount is level, and tighten
all fasteners. See figure 1.5.
Skip to step 2 on next page.
• Concrete anchors are notintended for attachment to
concretewallcovered with a layer ofplaster, drywall,
orother finishing material asshownbelow. Ifmounting
toconcretewall covered with plaster/drywall is
unavoidable,plaster/drywall(up to 5/8" thick) must be
