Use a stud fi nder to locate the edges of the studs. Use of an edge-to-edge stud fi nder is highly recommended.
Based on their edges, draw a vertical line down each stud’s center. Place wall plate (A) on wall as a template.
The top mounting slots should be located 1.76" (45 mm) above the desired screen center as shown in fi gure 1.1.
Level plate, and mark the center of the four mounting holes. Make sure that the mounting holes are on the stud
centerlines. Drill four 5/32" (4 mm) dia. holes 2.5" (64 mm) deep. Make sure that the wall plate is level, secure it
using four #14 x 2.5" wood screws (D) as shown in fi gure 1.2.
Skip to step 2.

Installation to Double Wood Stud Wall
• Installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all
attached hardware and components.
• Tighten wood screws so that wall plate is fi rmly 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 fi nder
is highly recommended.
• Hardware provided is for attachment of mount through standard thickness drywall or plaster into wood studs.
Installers are responsible to provide hardware for other types of mounting situations (Not evaluated by UL).
