Make sure that wall plate (F) is level, use it as a
template to mark the two center mounting holes. Drill
two 1/4" (6 mm) dia. holes to a minimum depth of 2.5"
(64 mm). Insert anchors (K) in holes flush with wall as
shown. Place wall plate over anchors and secure with
#14 x 2.5" screws (J). Level, then tighten all fasteners.

• When installing Peerless wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of 1-3/8" of actual concrete

thickness in the hole to be used for the concrete anchors. Do not drill into mortar joints! Be sure to mount in a solid
part of the block, generally 1" minimum from the side of the block. Cinder block must meet ASTM C-90 specifications.
It is suggested that a standard electric drill on slow setting is used to drill the hole instead of a hammer drill to avoid
breaking out the back of the hole when entering a void or cavity.

• Concrete must be 2000 psi density minimum. Lighter density concrete may not hold concrete anchor.

• Installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached

hardware and components.

• Always attach concrete anchors directly to load-

bearing concrete.

• Never attach concrete anchors to concrete covered

with plaster, drywall, or other finishing material. If
mounting to concrete surfaces covered with a finishing
surface is unavoidable, the finishing surface must be
counterbored as shown below. Be sure concrete
anchors do not pull away from concrete when tighten-
ing screws. If plaster/drywall is thicker than 5/8",
custom fasteners must be supplied by installer.

• Tighten screws so that wall plate is firmly attached,

but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage
screws, greatly reducing their holding power.

• Never tighten in excess of 80 in. • lb (9 N.M.).
