GENERAL
This product should only be installed by someone of
good mechanical aptitude, who has experience with
basic building construction, and fully understands these
instructions. Atdec 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. Always
use an assistant or mechanical lifting device to safely lift
and position equipment.
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.
PRODUCT LOCATION
Please pay careful attention to where this product is
located. Check load capacity of wall prior to installation
as some mounting surfaces (including walls, ceilings,
horizontal surfaces) are not suitable for installation.
Failure to provide adequate structural strength for
this component can result in serious personal injury or
damage to equipment! It is the installer’s responsibility
to make sure the structure to which this component is
attached can support five times the combined weight
of all equipment. Reinforce the structure as required
before installing the component. Installing on drywall
boards alone will not support the weight of most AV
equipment. 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.
Designed for indoor use, this mount is suitable for public
or home 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.
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
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.
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.
HAzARD LIMITATION
When routing cables take advantage of any built in
cable management features that the product might
provide and ensure that all cables are tidy and secure.
Check to see that any moving aspect of product can
do so unhindered by any cabling.
Some products have moving parts and the potential
to cause injury through the crushing or trapping of
fingers or other body parts.
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-check all necessary fixings are present and are
of ample tightness.
Tighten screws so adaptor brackets are firmly attached.
Do not tighten with excessive force. Overtightening
can cause stress damage to screws, greatly reducing
their holding power and possibly causing screw heads
to become detached. Tighten to 4.5N/m or 40 in-lb
maximum torque.
Correct length screws must be used. If screws don’t get
three complete turns in the screen inserts or if screws
bottom out and bracket is still not tightly secured,
damage may occur to screen or product may fail.
It is recommended that periodic inspections of the
product and its fixing points are made to ensure that
safety is maintained. If in doubt consult a professional
AV installer or other suitably qualified person.
