PLP INSTALLATION
Perform the following procedures to mount the PLP.
Select Mounting Location
To select the mounting location, do the following:
WARNING: It is the responsibility of the installer to
verify that the wall to which the mount is
anchored will safely support the
combined load of all attached
components and equipment.
1. Determine the exact mounting location to install the
wall mount prior to installation, keeping in mind the
screen size.
NOTE: Mount the PLP on dual wall studs or some other
equivalent supporting framework that is vertical
or horizontal.
2. Using a stud sensor, locate the two wood studs where
you will mount the PLP as follows:
Refer to Figure 3 for wood studs that are
16” apart on center.
OR
Refer to Figure 4 for wood studs that are
24” apart on center.
3. Using a nail as a temporary hook, hang the mount on
the wall using the triangular hole located in the center
of the mount (see Figure 2).
4. Use a pencil to mark the mounting holes where the
four pilot holes will be drilled into the center of the
wood stud. Make sure the mounting holes are square
and straight. Remove the mount from the wall,
placing it on the floor or a table.
5. Drill pilot holes using a 7/32” drill.
