Installation to Wood Stud Wall
WARNING
• Installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached
hardware and components.
• Tighten wood screws so that wall plate is firmly attached, but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage the
screws, greatly reducing their holding power.
• Never tighten in excess of 80 in. • lb (9 N.M.).
• Do not attach directly to a metal stud wall. Use of a triple stud WSP wall plate is required for attachment to metal
studs (contact customer care). Metal stud installation is not UL evaluated.
• Make sure that mounting screws are anchored into the center of the stud. The use of an "edge to edge" stud finder is
highly recommended.
• Hardware provided is for attachment of mount through standard thickness drywall or plaster into wood studs. Installers
are responsible to provide hardware for other types of mounting situations.
• Never exceed the Maximum UL Load Capacity of 175 lb (79 kg).
Wall plate (A) can be mounted to two studs that are 16" apart. Use a stud finder to locate the edges of the
1
studs. Use of an edge-to-edge stud finder is highly recommended. Based on their edges, draw a vertical line
down each stud’s center. Place wall plate on wall as a template. The top mounting slots should be located .36"
above the desired screen center for PLA 60 and PLA60-S and .43" below the desired screen center for PLAV 60
and PLAV 60-S. Level plate, and mark the center of the eight mounting holes. Make sure that the mounting
holes are on the stud centerlines. Drill eight 7/32" dia. holes 3" deep. Make sure that the wall plate is level,
secure it using eight 5/16 x 3" wood screws (O) and washers (P).
Skip to step 2 on page 6.
WARNING
• Never mount this product to metal studs without the
required accessory.

Installation to Concrete Wall
WARNING
• Concrete must be 2000 psi density minimum. Lighter density concrete may not hold concrete anchor.
• Make sure that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached
hardware and components.
• Never exceed the Maximum UL Load Capacity of 175 lb (79 kg).
• Never mount this product to metal studs.
IMPORTANT! Concrete must be 2000 psi density
minimum.

Use wall plate (A), making sure that it is level, as a
template to mark holes. The top mounting slots should
be located .36" above the desired screen center for PLA
60 and PLA 60-S and .43" below the desired screen
center for PLAV 60 and PLAV 60-S. Use the masonry bit
to drill 5/16" (8 mm) dia. holes to a minimum depth of 3"
(76 mm). Insert anchors in holes flush with wall as shown
(right). Place wall plate (A) over anchors (W) and secure
with 5/16 x 3" wood screws (O) and washers (P).

• Never tighten in excess of 80 in • lb (9 N.M.).
Tighten all fasteners
WARNING
• Always attach concrete expansion anchors directly to
load-bearing concrete.
• Never attach concrete expansion anchors to concrete
covered with plaster, drywall, or other finishing mate-
rial. If mounting to concrete surfaces covered with a
finishing surface is unavoidable, the finishing surface
must be counterbored as shown below. If plaster/
drywall is thicker than 5/8", custom fasteners must be
supplied by installer (Not evaluated by UL).

Depending on the specific size & weight of the plasma,
articulating swing arm may be angled at different
positions, causing plasma to appear to lean sideways
at different articulating positions. Tilt-roll assembly (B)
allows plasma to be manually adjusted, so plasma can
be horizontal at all positions. To adjust, gently rotate
plasma by hand to desired position.
If it is too difficult to adjust roll of plasma, loosen
screws shown in figure 7.1 using a phillips screw-
driver.
