INSTALLATION
The FTR may be installed on either a single wood stud, or drywall (1/2" minimum thickness).
INSTALL MOUNT TO SINGLE WOOD STUD
1.Determine approximate mounting location, keeping in mind the display size.
2.Use a stud sensor to locate applicable wood stud. Mark location with a pencil.
3.Level plate (10) at desired height and, using plate (10) as a template, mark the location of upper and lower pilot holes. Ensure marks are in the center of wood stud.
NOTE: Mount can provide ±1/2" of lateral shift by using mount holes on either side of vertical centerline.
WARNING: ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD! Drilling into electrical wires or cables can cause DEATH or SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY! ALWAYS make certain area behind mounting surfaces is free of electrical wires and cables before drilling or installing mount fasteners.
4.Drill pilot holes using a 1/8" drill bit. Ensure pilot holes are straight.
5.Using Phillips screwdriver, insert screw (40) through washer (30), plate (10), and drywall (not shown) and install into pilot holes (See Figure 2).

7.Tighten both screws (40) securely.
INSTALL MOUNT TO DRYWALL
WARNING: Drywall must be 1/2" minimum thickness. Failure to provide adequate structural strength for this unit can result in serious personal injury or damage to equipment!
1.Determine approximate mounting location, keeping in mind the display size.
2.Level plate (10) at desired height and, using plate (10) as a template, mark the location of the four anchor holes (one in each corner slot).
WARNING: ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD! Drilling into electrical wires or cables can cause DEATH or SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY! ALWAYS make certain area behind mounting surfaces is free of electrical wires and cables before drilling or installing mount fasteners.
3.Drill anchor holes using a 3/8" drill bit. Ensure holes are straight and completely through drywall.
4.Insert anchor (20) into anchor hole and seat with gentle tapping from hammer. Anchor barbs should be fully engaged in drywall (See Figure 3).

5.Using Phillips screwdriver, tighten anchor screw until anchor has fully collapsed against back side of drywall.
NOTE: Anchor screw will feel tight until anchor begins to collapse. Screw will then turn easier for many turns. Screw will feel tight when anchor has fully collapsed.
6.Repeat steps 4. and 5. for remaining anchors.
7.Remove and retain anchor screws from anchors (20).
NOTE: Anchors (20) may come with small washers which may be left on the screw or discarded. These small washers do NOT replace washers (30).
