Procedures
Disassembling the Horizontal Mounting Bracket
The Horizontal Mounting Bracket ships fully assembled, but to facilitate
installation, it should first be separated into three parts: the wall-mount
yoke and the two end plates with the tilt-adjustment mechanism that
attach to the speaker enclosure. Before disassembly, be sure to note the
proper interlocking configuration of the tilt mechanism; this will remove
doubts when it is time to reassemble the bracket.

mount yoke.
•
Use a 4 mm hex wrench or hex driver to remove the two M6
bolts from one end of the bracket. Be careful to hold both parts
of the bracket, as the end of the bracket will be free to fall once
the bolts have been removed. Keep these bolts, as the will be
required to reassemble the bracket once it is installed.
