Installation to Wood Stud Wall
• When installing Peerless wall mounts on a wood stud wall covered with gypsum board (drywall), verify that the
wood studs are a minimum of 2" x 4" nominal size. Do not install over gypsum board thicker than 5/8".
• 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 fi rmly 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.).
• Make sure that mounting screws are anchored into the center of the stud. The use of an "edge to edge" stud fi nder
is highly recommended.
Use a stud fi nder to locate the edges of the studs. Use of an edge-to-edge stud fi nder is highly recommended.
