Installation to Wood Stud Wall
• 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-UNLP-GB and PLA 60-UNLP-GS, and .43" below the desired screen
center for PLAV 60-UNLP-GB and PLAV 60-UNLP-GS. 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).
