Installation to a concrete wall
WARNING
•When installing Peerless wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of
•Concrete must be 2000 psi density minimum. Lighter density concrete may not hold concrete anchor.
•Make sure that the wall will safely support four times the combined load of the equipment and all attached hard- ware and components.
Drill two 1/4" (6 mm) dia. holes to a minimum depth of 2.5" (64 mm). Attach support arm (A) using concrete anchors(call customer service to order accessory kit ACC 200 or ACC203) and #14 x 2.5" wood screws (F) as shown in Illustration A and 1, 2, and 3. Tighten all fasteners.
WARNING
•Tighten wood screws firmly, 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.).

WARNING
•Concrete anchors are not intended for attachment to concrete wall covered with a layer of plaster, drywall, or other finishing material. If mounting to concrete wall covered with plaster/drywall is unavoidable, plaster/ drywall (up to 5/8" thick) must be counterbored as shown right. If plaster/drywall is thicker than 5/8", custom fasteners must be supplied by installer.
