Installation Instructions Model PNR™

INSTALLATION

WARNING: Improper installation can result in serious personal injury!

WARNING: It is the responsibility of the installer to verify that the wall to which the PNR is anchored will safely support five times the combined load of all attached components and equipment. If not, reinforce the structure before installing the PNR.

1.Locate two wood studs 16” apart on center

2.Determine the exact mounting location prior to installation, considering screen size and the unit’s total swing arm radius. Keep in mind that the PNR must be mounted to wood studs that are 16” apart on center.

NOTE: Mount the PNR between parallel wall studs or other supporting framework that is vertical or horizontal.

3.Using a stud sensor, locate the two wood studs where you will mount the PNR.

4.Draw a level plumb line to indicate the desired height of the top mounting bracket.

5.With an assistant, lift and hold the PNR against wall. Use a pencil, awl, or small nail to mark the mounting holes where two pilot holes will be drilled into the center of the wood studs. Make sure the mounting holes are level.

6.With an assistant, lay the PNR down on the floor.

7.Drill two pilot holes using a 9/32” drill bit where the mounting holes were marked for anchoring the top bracket. See Figure 1.

8.Install two 3/8” x 2-1/2” lag bolts (50) and two 3/8” flat washers (60), through PNR Top Bracket and into upper pilot holes.

NOTE: Do not tighten the lag bolts down at this time. Leave enough space between the wall and lag bolts to hang the PNR.

Mounting the bottom bracket

1.Mark the two mounting holes in the bottom mounting bracket (See figure 3). Make sure to align the holes parallel to the holes drilled in the top bracket.

2.Drill two pilot holes in the wall studs using a 9/32” drill bit.

3.Install two 3/8” x 2-1/2” lag bolts (50) and two 3/8” washers (60) through PNR Bottom Bracket into the lower pilot holes.
