General

B-Tech International Ltd recommends that a professional AV installer or other suitably qualified
person install this product. Great care must always be taken during installation as most AV
equipment is of a fragile nature, possibly heavy and easily damaged if dropped.
If you do not fully understand the instructions or are not sure how to install this product safely,
then please consult a professional for advice and/or to install this product for you. Failure to
mount this product correctly may cause serious injury or death both during installation and at
any time thereafter.
Do not mount any AV equipment that exceeds the specific weight limit of the product you are
installing. This weight limit will be clearly stated on each product and its packaging and will
vary from product to product.

Product location

Please pay careful attention to where this product is located. Some walls are not suitable for
installation.
If located in a public or frequently populated area ensure that the product is out of the
immediate reach of people. If any AV equipment is to be suspended over the likely path or
location of people then great care should be taken to secure all parts of the installation from
falling.
If you install this product on drywall it must be securely fixed to a wooden stud, concrete block
or other permanent structure behind the drywall board. Installing on drywall boards alone will
not support the weight of most AV equipment.
When drilling holes in walls it is essential to avoid contact with electrical cables and water or
gas pipes contained within. Use of a good quality live wire detector and hidden object locator is
therefore recommended. Only drill into structures when you are sure it is safe to do so.

Fixing hardware

It is highly recommended that all wall fixing screws be used where supplied and that the
purpose of all other fixing hardware is fully understood. In some cases more AV equipment
fixing hardware will be supplied to accommodate different models of equipment and set up
configurations.
The installer must be satisfied that any supplied fixing hardware is suitable for each specific
installation. If any fixing screws or included hardware are deemed not sufficient for a safe
installation then please consult a professional or your local hardware store.

Particular attention to the nature of moving parts is required especially when assembling
installing and adjusting during set up.
Immediately after installations double-check that the work done is safe and secure. Double-

It is recommended that periodic inspections of the product and its fixing points are made as
frequently as possible to ensure that safety is maintained. If in doubt consult a professional AV
installer or other suitably qualified person.
