• If your model does not include concrete fasteners, contact customer service for the appropriate accessory kit to
install the product on concrete or cinder block.
• When installing Peerless wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of 1-3/8" of actual concrete
surface in the 5/16" diameter 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.
• Make sure that the wall will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached hardware and
components.
• Never exceed the Maximum UL Load Capacity.
For attachment to solid concrete
or cinder block wall drill, 5/16" (8
mm) dia. holes 1.75" (45 mm) deep
using a standard drill and masonry bit
(DO NOT use a hammer drill). Attach
wall bracket (F) using Concrete
Anchor Kit as pictured below.

WARNING
• Always attach concrete expansion anchors directly to
load-bearing concrete.
• Never attach concrete expansion anchors to concrete
covered with plaster, drywall, or other finishing mate-
rial. If mounting to concrete surfaces covered with a
finishing surface is unavoidable, the finishing surface
must be counterbored.
