Installation to Wood Stud Wall
• 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.
WARNING
• Make sure that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached
hardware and components.

Using a stud finder, locate the edges of the wood studs used in mounting this product. Use of an edge-to-edge stud
finder is highly recommended. Based on its edges and using a level, draw a vertical line down the center of each
stud. Mark a point (point 1) on the right stud centerline 2.1" above the center of screen as shown in figure 1.1. Hold
wall plate (AA) over point 1. Using a level to ensure plate is horizontal, mark three more points (points 2, 3, and 4)
as shown in figure 1.2.
Drill 5/32" diameter holes 2-1/2" deep through studs at the four points.
Loosely fasten wall plate (AA) to wall using four #14 x 2-1/2" wood screws (CC) as shown in figure 1.3.
Note: For ease of installation, start with the top right wood screw first and work counterclockwise.
Level, hold, and then tighten all screws.
