STUD

Using a stud finder, locate and mark the edges of the wood stud. 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 (D) as template to

mark center of holes along the vertical line. The top mounting holes should be 6" above the desired screen center

as shown in figure 1.1. Drill three 3/16" (5 mm) dia. pilot holes 3" (76 mm) deep. Attach wall plate (D) to wall using

three 5/16 X 3" wood screws (E) as shown in fig. 1.2. Level plate, then tighten all fasteners.

Installation to Solid Concrete or Cinder Block

Use wall plate (D) as template to mark mounting

holes.Thetopmounting hole shouldbe6"abovethe

desired screen center as shown in figure 1.1 on page 5.

Drill three 5/16" (8 mm) dia. holes 3" (76.2 mm) deep as

shown in fig. 1.3. Insert anchors (F) in holes flush with

wall as shown (right). Place wall plate over anchors and

secure with 5/16 x 3" screws (E). Level, then tighten all

fasteners.

• When installing Peerless wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of 1-3/8" of actual concrete

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 specifications.

It is suggested that a standard electric drill on slow setting is used to drill the hole instead of a hammer drill to avoid

breakingoutthebackoftheholewhen entering a void or cavity.

• Concrete must be 2000 psi density minimum. Lighter density concrete may not hold concrete anchor.

• Makesure that the supporting surface will safely supportthe combined load of the equipment and allattached hard-

wareand components.

The universal adapter bracket has two fixed stop positions

which lock the extension brackets in the retracted position

(shown right) or extended position (shown below) using the

M5 x 9mm screws.

If the distance between mounting holes on the back of your screen

measure 17.5” (445mm) wide or lesskeep universal adapter

bracket in the retracted position. Skip to step 3-3.

If the distance between mounting holes on the back of your screen

measure wider than 17.5” (445 mm), remove four M5 x 9 mm

socketbutton head screws from universal adapter bracket using

3 mm allen wrench (M), as shown below. NOTE: You may need to

loosen four M5 x 9 mm vertical support screws, as shown in

detail 2, one full turn to adjust extension brackets. Extend both

extension brackets out to the fixed stop positions (threaded hole

showninreverse view below). Secure extension bracket to the

horizontal support by fully tightening M5 x 9 mm socket button

head screws into the fixed stop positions of the extension brackets

using 3 mm allen wrench (M) as shown in the reverse view.

Retighten M5 x 9 mm vertical support screws as shown in detail 2.
