Determine the Mounting Location
Measure the width and height dimensions of the plasma display.
Mark the wall with the desired location for the center of the display.
Important:
Make sure that there is adequate mounting space available for the display, considering the display dimensions.
The Mounting Guide
Locate the supplied mounting guide. (Fig. 1)
Fold the dust collector along the marked lines:
1.
Fold main channel up.
2.
Crease and fold the tab sections inward.
3.
Fold outer portion of tab around the back of the guide, and then insert tab into slot.
Insert pin (supplied) into the center mark of the guide.
Remove the tape strip from the back of the guide.
Using the four sight holes, pin the guide to the center mark on the wall.
Using a bubble level, precisely level the guide, and then press the adhesive backing against the wall to hold the guide in position.
Using an electronic stud finder, locate the center of the wooden studs. Mark the stud center positions directly onto the guide, along the Mounting Hole Center Line. Follow the vertical lines
on the guide to transfer your marks to the opposite Mounting Hole Center Line.
Note:
If mounting to masonry, simply mark the desired mounting hole locations directly onto the guide, along the Mounting Hole Center Line.
If cutting openings for an electrical outlet and/or A/V interconnect cables, carefully remove the perforated sections of the guide and then mark and cut the wallboard.
Wooden Studs -
Use a ¼” drill bit, and drill 4 mounting holes into the center of the studs.
Masonry –
Use a ½” masonry bit, and drill 4 mounting holes. Insert wall anchors (N) into the mounting holes, and lightly tap them flush to the wall with a hammer.
Caution:
Wall anchors should only be used for masonry mounting.
NEVER
use wall anchors to mount the U3 to drywall.
Carefully remove the guide from the wall, and discard.
Note:
Be sure to hold the guide in an upright position so as not to spill the collected dust.
Mount the wall plate to the wall with supplied 3/8” lag bolts and washers.
Attach the Mounting Rails
Consult the supplied Hardware Cross Reference list, and locate the required hardware for your display.
For proper installation, make sure that each rail mounting slot is facing down, and that the tilt tensioning lever is positioned to the
outside of the display. (Fig. 2) Use the selected screws and the square washers (L) to mount the rails to the back of the plasma
display. Adjust the rails to equal heights on the back of the display using the alignment marks on the rails as a reference. (Fig. 3)
Once aligned, tightly secure the mounting screws.
