INSTALLATION
These speakers include wall mounting brackets and mounting screws for installation to
wooden supporting surfaces. If you need to mount to a different type of surface, you will
need to supply the appropriate mounting hardware. The brackets are compatible with
screw sizes up to M4.
Determine where you will install the speakers. This should be on a vertical surface that is
capable of supporting the weight of the speaker and the mounting bracket. If possible you
should mount the speakers symmetrical to your listening location. The speakers should be
mounted in a covered location, protected from direct rainfall.
6.5-Inch Speaker Installation (21645 only)
Perform the following steps to mount and connect the 6.5-inch version of these outdoor
speakers. Installation of the 4-inch model is detailed in the following section.
1.
For each speaker, unscrew that end caps which attach the bracket to the speaker
housing and remove the brackets.
2.
The brackets include two 2-way keyhole screw mount locations, which allow for
both vertical and horizontal mounting options.
3.
Place the bracket against the mounting location. Use a carpenter's level to ensure
that the bracket is straight, then use a pencil to mark the end of each keyhole.
4.
Use a drill of the appropriate size to drill pilot holes for the screws or holes for the
screw anchors.
5.
If using screw anchors, insert them into the holes and tap them in place using a
hammer.
6.
Insert the screws into the pilot holes or screw anchors and tighten them until they
are about 1/4" from being fully driven into the mounting surface.
7.
Position the keyholes over the screw heads with the narrow portions of the
keyholes above the screw bodies. Slide the bracket down until the screw bodies are
at the end of the narrow portions of the keyholes.
