BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Large Flat Panel
Dual Arm Wall Mount
Model PNR™

The PNR is wall-mounted, rugged, versatile, and 
installer-friendly. The PNR is compatible with the 

standard (14” x 14”) PSB interface bracket in which a 
display can be mounted in either the landscape or 

portrait position on the PNR.

The dual arms on the PNR:

Extend from the wall 24-7/8” in length

Pivot up to 90º left or right of center

The standard PNR is shipped with the support posts for 
the dual arms centered in the mount. The support posts 
can be moved laterally right or left of center to readily 
accommodate sites with limited wall space. The mount 
also has two inches of height adjustment. The tilt range 
for the display is 5º up and 15º down.

The PNR was designed for fast installation. After drawing 
the plumb line and installing the two top lag bolts into the 
dual wall studs, the installer hangs the PNR on its top 
bracket and installs two lag bolts in the bottom bracket. 
Next, the installer makes the height adjustment, mounts 
the display, and connects the power/audio/video cables, 
which are diverted into the built-in path in the swing-out 
arms. After making the lateral, rotational, and tilt 
adjustments, the installation process is complete.

CAUTION:  

To prevent damage to the PNR, which could affect or void the Factory warranty, and to the equipment that 

will be attached to it, thoroughly study all instructions and illustrations before you begin the installation.  Pay particular 
attention to the “Important Warnings and Cautions” on Page 2.

The combined weight of the components installed on the PNR must not exceed 200 lbs. (90.72kg).

The PNR wall mount must be installed on dual wall studs or supporting framework. The wall to which the PNR is 

anchored must be capable of supporting 

five times

 the total weight of the mount and all attached equipment.

If you have any questions about this installation, contact Chief Manufacturing at 1-800-582-6480.
