• When installing Peerless wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of 1-3/8"
(35mm) 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" (25mm) minimum
from the side of the block. Cinder block must meet ASTM C-90 specifi cations. It is suggested that
a standard electric drill on slow setting is used to drill the hole instead of a hammer drill to avoid
breaking out the back of the hole when entering a void or cavity.
• Always attach concrete anchors directly to load-bearing concrete.
WARNING
Place plate (A) over anchors (D). Secure with screws (C).
Tighten screws.
