Installing the Wall Frame
Introduction
Facing the Front
Make sure the flat side of the wall frame’s
crosspiece brackets is facing the front.
Mounting Safety
Two people are recommended for installing this
mount.
Wood Stud Installation
You must secure the wall frame to two (2) wall
studs with a minimum of four (4) lag bolts (2 lag
bolts for each stud found).
Use a stud finder to determine the exact center of
wall studs in the vicinity of the wall frame.
Use a pencil to mark the exact center of each of the
wall studs.
Step 1
Step 2
Two people are recommended for this step; one
person to level the wall frame and another person
to mark the wall stud location.
Place the wall frame against the wall in the desired
viewing location.
Adjust the wall frame to align the mount slots in the
wall frame with the center of the wall studs.
Level the wall frame.
Use a pencil to mark the upper right mounting
location along the center of the wall stud.
If you will be installing your AM225 mount to wood
studs, proceed to the
“Wood Stud Installation”
