Installation to Solid Concrete or Cinder Block

WARNING

•When installing Peerless wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of 1-3/8" (35 mm) of actual concrete thickness in the hole to be used for the concrete anchors. Do not drill into mortar joints! Be sure to mount in a solid part of the block, generally 1" (25 mm) minimum from the side of the block. Cinder block must meet ASTM C-90 specifi cations. It is suggested that a standard electric drill on slow setting is used to drill the hole instead of a hammer drill to avoid breaking out the back of the hole when entering a void or cavity.

•Concrete must be 2000 psi density minimum. Lighter density concrete may not hold concrete anchor.

•Make sure that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached hardware and components.

	page 4. Drill two 5/16" dia. holes to a minimum
	depth of 2.5". Insert anchors (D) into holes fl ush
	with wall as shown. Secure wall arm (A) to wall with	Drill holes and insert anchors (D).

WARNING

• Tighten screws so that wall plate is fi rmly attached,
but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage	Tighten all fasteners.
screws, greatly reducing their holding power.

• Never tighten in excess of 80 in. • lb (9 N.M.).

• Always attach concrete expansion anchors directly	SOLID CONCRETE	CINDER BLOCK
to load-bearing concrete.

•	Never attach concrete expansion anchors to
	concrete covered with plaster, drywall, or other			D
	fi nishing material. If mounting to concrete surfaces
	covered with a fi nishing surface is unavoidable (not
	evaluated by UL), the fi nishing surface must be
	counterbored as shown below. Be sure concrete			C
