WARNING

•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 firmly 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 finder is highly recommended.

•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.

1	Wall plate (AA) can be mounted to two studs that are 16" apart. Use a stud finder to locate the edges of the studs.
	Use of an edge-to-edge stud finder is highly recommended. Based on their edges, draw a vertical line down each

stud’s center. Place wall plate on wall as a template. The top mounting slots should be 2.5" (65 mm) above the desired screen center as shown in figure 1.1. Level plate, and mark the center of the four mounting holes. Make sure that the mounting holes are on the stud centerlines. Drill four 5/32" (4 mm) dia. holes 2-1/2" (65 mm) deep.
