CHIEF PLP Series User manual

Plasma Low Profile (PLP Series)

Wall Mount

The PLP wall mount is a quick disconnect mounting system with a

pitch adjustment range between 0 and 15 degrees. The mount can be

adjusted to accomodate the weight of different plasma screens. The

mount is approximately 1-7/16” deep in the retracted position.

Once the brackets are attached to the plasma screen, simply mount the

PLP securely on a wall, lock the plasma screen in place using the con-

venient locking flag, and attach the audio/video cables. The bottom

of the PLP pulls forward 3” and locks in place, allowing easy access

for cable attachment.

The PLP is hidden behind the plasma screen, making it a low profile

wall mount.
