MTR INSTALLATION
Perform the following procedures to mount the MTR.
Select Mounting Location
To select the mounting location, do the following:
WARNING: It is the responsibility of the installer to
verify that the wall to which the mount is
anchored will safely support the
combined load of all attached
components and equipment.
1.
Determine the exact mounting location to install the
wall mount prior to installation, keeping in mind the
screen size.
NOTE:
Mount the MTR on dual wall studs or some other
equivalent supporting framework that is vertical
or horizontal.
2.
Using a stud sensor, locate the wood stud(s) where
you will mount the MTR, as follows:
•
Refer to Figure 2 for single wood stud mounting.
OR
•
Refer to Figure 3 for dual wood stud mounting,
wood studs that are 16”apart on center.
3.
Draw a level plumb line to indicate the desired height
of the mount.
4.
Holding the MTR against the wall, select the
mounting holes that best suits your situation (see
Figure 4 on page 5).
NOTE:
For dual wood stud mounting, the holes are
slotted to allow for lateral movement. The mount
can be centered, or shifted to the left of center, or
right of center depending on stud location.
5.
Mark the mounting holes you selected in Step 4.
Make sure the mounting holes are square and
straight.
6.
Lay the MTR down on the floor.
7.
Drill the pilot holes into the center of the wood
stud(s) at the locations marked in Step 5 using the
correct drill bit.
