CAUTION: Floorstanding (tower) loudspeakers have a high center of gravity and may become unstable and tip over during earthquakes, or if rocked, tipped or improperly

positioned. If this is a concern, these speakers should be anchored to the wall behind them, using the same procedures and hardware customary for anchoring

bookcases and wall units. The customer is responsible for proper installation and proper selection of hardware.

WALL-MOUNTING

(Models L810, L820, LC2)

Important Safety Notes

•Proper selection of mounting hardware and installation of the wall brackets are the responsibility of the customer.

•This product is not intended for ceiling mounting.

Two Number 8 round-head or pan-head screws should be used for each loudspeaker. The screw head should be between 5/16 inch (8mm) and 1/4 inch (6.3mm) in diameter, and the screw should be at least 2 inches (50mm) in length.

When installing screws in any wall, it is always preferable to screw them into a wall stud. If none is available, it is important to always use properly selected wall anchors.

Attach two of the four self- adhesive rubber pads that came with the loudspeaker to the back of the enclosure in the two bottom corners so that the cabinet is spaced evenly from the wall. Select a suitable mounting location on a wall. (The ceiling is not a suitable mounting location.)

Drill two pilot holes, appropriately sized for the specific self-tapping screw or wall anchor that you will be using. A template is included

with your loudspeaker that indicates the proper locations for the pilot holes. In the event that the template is missing, refer to this chart:

Model	Distance Between
	Pilot Holes
L810	152mm (6")
L820	216mm (8-1/2")
LC2	368mm (14-1/2")

See Figure 1. The holes should be 57mm below where you want the top of the enclosure to be positioned. Use a carpenter’s level to ensure that the holes are even and that the speaker will mount on the level.

Install the two screws into either a wooden wall stud or anchor, and tighten them until the back of each screw head is about 1/8" (3mm) from the wall. See Figure 2.

Models L810 and L820 may also be corner-mounted using the keyholes located on the bezeled corners. For corner mounting, fold the mounting template in half, place the fold in the corner at the desired height, and use the outer holes. In case the template is missing, for corner mounting drill each pilot hole 7-3/4" (197mm) from the corner for model L810, or 9-11/16" (246mm) from the corner for model L820. However, if your corner is not precisely 90

degrees, these measurements may not work. In that case, it is recommended that you contact a professional custom installer, who can determine the correct locations for the pilot holes. Install the loudspeaker by slowly moving the cabinet toward the screws so that the screw heads clear the larger circular portion of the two keyholes. Once both screw heads have entered the keyholes, the loudspeaker should gently be lowered onto the screw shafts. Check that the loudspeaker is firmly locked onto the screws by gently pulling the speaker down and forward.
