Procedure
Step 1 Disassemble the pivot kit, if not already disassembled.
Step 2 Use the mounting bracket's wall-plate end as a template to mark four screw hole locations on the mounting
surface. See Figure 30: Pivoting Wall Mounting Bracket , on page 34 for the mounting bracket screw hole
locations (screw holes of maximum 6 mm). See Figure 31: Pivoting Wall Mounting Bracket Dimensions, on
page 35 for the dimensions of the pivoting mounting bracket.
Step 3 Use four screws and, if required, wall anchors to attach the mounting bracket's wall-plate end to the mounting
surface. These screws and anchors are to be sourced independently.
You can use an exterior-grade plywood backboard to mount the AP to stucco, cement, or drywall.
Note
The mounting wall, attaching screws, and wall anchors must support a 50-lb (22.7 kg) static weight.
Note
Step 4 Align the AP-plate end of the bracket with the screw holes in the AP's back.
Step 5 Fasten the bracket plate to the AP by using four M6 x12 mm bolts and a 10–mm box or socket wrench. Tighten
the bolts to 40 lbf-in (4.5 Nm) of torque.
