11 | CHAPTER 2 – INSTALLING AND SECURING YOUR SMART BOARD
INTERACTIVE WHITEBOARD
Tools Required to Wall-Mount Your Interactive Whiteboard
To wall-mount your interactive whiteboard you’ll need the following tools, which aren’t
included:
• a Phillips® No. 2 screwdriver
(all screws must be tightened
by hand)
• a ruler or measuring tape
• a carpenter’s level
• a pencil or other marking
device
• a stepladder
WARNINGS
• Failure to follow these instructions could result in personal injury and product
damage.
• Two people are required to safely mount your interactive whiteboard
because it might be too heavy for one person to safely maneuver onto the
wall-mounting brackets. When you lift your interactive whiteboard, you and
your assistant should stand on either side of the screen, supporting its weight
at the bottom corners while balancing the top with your other hands.
CAUTIONS
• If you need to lean your interactive whiteboard against a wall before you
mount it, make sure that it remains in an upright position, resting on its pen
tray brackets, which are designed to sustain your interactive whiteboard’s
weight.
• Do not rest your interactive whiteboard on its side or on the top of its frame.
