Installation to Single Wood Stud Wall
1Use a stud finder to locate the edges of the stud. Use of an edge-to-edge stud finder is highly recommended. Based
on its edges, draw a vertical line down the stud’s center. Place wall plate (A) on wall as a template, making sure that
the two mounting holes are over the stud centerline. Level plate, and mark the center of the two holes. Drill two
5/32" (4 mm) dia. holes 2-1/2" (65 mm) deep. Make sure that the wall plate is level, secure it using two #14 x 2.5"
wood screws (G) as shown.
Skip to step 2 on page 6.
• Make sure that the wall will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached hardware and
components.
WARNING
• 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.
• 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 (A) is level, use it as a
template to mark two mounting holes. Drill two 1/4"
(6 mm) dia. holes to a minimum depth of 2.5" (64
mm). Insert anchors (H) in holes flush with wall as
shown(right). Place wall plate over anchors and
secure with two #14 x 2.5" screws (G). Level, then
tightenall 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.
• Make sure that the wall will safely support four times the combined load of the equipment and all attached hardware
and components.
