Installation to Triple Wood Stud Wall
Wall plate (AA) can be mounted to three studs that are 16" (41 cm) apart. 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 on wall as a template. For ST670 models the top mounting slots should
be 2.9" (74mm) above the desired display center as shown in fi gure 1.1. For ST680 models the top mounting slot
should be 1.3" below the desired display center. Level plate, and mark the center of the six mounting holes. Make
sure that the mounting holes are on the stud centerlines. Drill six 5/32" (4mm) dia. holes 2.5" (64mm) deep. Make
sure that the wall plate is level, secure it using six #14 x 2.5" wood screws (DD) as shown in fi gure 1.2.
Skip to step 2.
NOTE: Wall plate may be mounted up to 6" (152mm) off center as shown in fi gure 1.1.

• 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.
• Two wood screws (DD) must be installed into wall plate (AA) in each segment as shown in detail 1, or product may
fail.
• 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).
