Installation Instructions MSP-DCCPPNR
MOUNT INSTALLATION
WARNING: Improper installation can result in serious
personal injury!
WARNING: It is the responsibility of the installer to verify
that the wall to which the mount is anchored
will safely support five times the combined
load of all attached components and equip-
ment. If not, reinforce the structure before
installing the mount.
Locate two wood studs 16” apart on center
1. Determine the exact mounting location prior to installa-
tion, considering screen size and the unit’s total swing
arm radius. Keep in mind that the mount must be
mounted to wood studs that are 16” apart on center.
NOTE: Mount the mount between parallel wall studs
or other supporting framework that is vertical
or horizontal.
2. Using a stud sensor, locate the two wood studs where
you will install the mount.
3. Draw a level plumb line to indicate the desired height of
the top mounting bracket.
4. With an assistant, lift and hold the mount against wall.
Use a pencil, awl, or small nail to mark the mounting
holes where two pilot holes will be drilled into the cen-
ter of the wood studs. Make sure the mounting holes are
level.
5. With an assistant, lay the mount down on the floor.
6. Drill two pilot holes where the mounting holes were
marked for anchoring the top bracket on the mount. See
Figure 1.
NOTE: Do not tighten the lag bolts down at this time.
Leave enough space between the wall and lag
bolts to hang the mount.
7. Install two lag bolts and two flat washers, in the pilot
holes drilled in step 6.
