WARNING
When installing Peerless wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of 1-3/8" of actual concrete
surface 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 specifica-
tions. 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.
Make sure that the wall will safely support four times the combined load of the equipment and all attached hard-
ware and components.
Tighten wood screws firmly, 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.).
WARNING
Concrete anchors are not intended for attachment to
concrete wall covered with a layer of plaster, drywall,
or other finishing material. If mounting to concrete wall
covered with plaster/drywall is unavoidable, plaster/
drywall (up to 5/8" thick) must be counterbored as
shown right. If plaster/drywall is thicker than 5/8",
custom fasteners must be supplied by installer.
