Attaching/detaching the Pioneer stand

The plasma display comes with the Pioneer table top stand
attached. You can also install the display on a rack by detaching
the stand. The method for attaching/detaching the stand varies
depending on the product.
Caution
This product can be used only with the attached stand. Using
other stands can result in instability, possibly causing injury.
The weight of a 50 inch plasma display is about 34.8 kg (76.7
lbs.) and a 42 inch about 29.9 kg (65.9 lbs.), it has no depth, and
is unstable. Therefore, at least two people must assemble and
install it.

Detaching the stand

1With the plasma display lying flat, loosen and remove
the two installation bolts (1) and (2) using a
screwdriver.
Installation bolts (1): M8 x 23 mm (black) for PRO-950HD
M8 x 23 mm (black) for PRO-1150HD
Installation bolts (2): M8 x 60 mm (black) for PRO-950HD
M8 x 40 mm (black) for PRO-1150HD
2Remove the stand from the plasma display.
Note
Make sure to keep the installation bolts (1) and (2) that have
been removed as they are re-used when attaching the stand to
the plasma display.
Place a sheet or protective cover to protect the display from
scratches or damage.
Work only with the plasma display lying flat on a table or similar
surface.
When lying the plasma display down, be careful not to scratch
or damage it.
If the speaker has been installed, it is recommended to detach
the speaker before removing the stand (for PRO-1150HD only).

Attaching the stand again

1With the plasma display lying flat, fit the stand’s
support columns to the bottom of the plasma display as
indicated by the arrows, then slowly insert them.
Be extremely careful not to insert the support columns of
the stand into any part of the plasma display other than the
stand insertion slots. Doing so might damage the plasma
display panel or its ports or result in warping of the stand.
Steps for detaching the stand are the same for PRO-
1150HD and PRO-950HD. Illustrations shown are for PRO-
1150HD.
