Assembly And Installation
Install Wall Plate to Wall - Wood Studs
WARNING: Failure to provide adequate structural strength
for this component can result in serious personal injury or
damage to equipment! It is the installer’s responsibility to
make sure the structure to which this component is attached
can support five times the combined weight of all equipment.
Reinforce the structure as required before installing the
component. The wall to which the mount is being attached
may have a maximum drywall thickness of 5/8" (1.6cm). Do
not install drywall anchors into the seam between drywall
pieces.
1. Unfold wall plate (A) to prepare it for mounting to wall. (See
Figure 1)
Figure 1
2. Level wall plate (A) and mark locations of pilot holes.(See
Figure 2)
NOTE: The RMF2 must be installed on two 16" studs. The
RLF2 can be installed on 16" studs (inner holes) or 24"
studs (outer holes). For the RXF2, it can be mounted
over two or three 16" studs or two 24" studs. If
mounting to three 16" studs, it must be mounted to all
three studs using the outer holes and center holes.
(See Figures 2 and 3) All studs must be 2"x4".
NOTE: The vertical center of the display will be even with the
center line indicated on the labels located directly
below each hinge. Keep this in mind when determining
mounting location. (See Figure 3)
3. Drill 7/32" (5.5mm) diameter pilot holes into wood studs at
marked locations. (See Figure 2)
Figure 2
Figure 3
4. Install 5/16 x 2 1/2" hex head cap screws (C) through four
flat washers (D), wall plate (A) and into wood studs. (See
Figure 4)

Install Wall Plate to Wall - Concrete or
Concrete Block
WARNING: Failure to provide adequate structural strength
for this component can result in serious personal injury or
damage to equipment! It is the installer’s responsibility to
make sure the structure to which this component is attached
can support five times the combined weight of all equipment.
Reinforce the structure as required before installing the
component. The wall to which the mount is being attached
may have a maximum drywall thickness of 5/8" (1.6cm).
WARNING: ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD! CUTTING
OR DRILLING INTO ELECTRICAL CORDS OR CABLES
CAN CAUSE DEATH OR SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY!
ALWAYS make certain area behind mounting surface is free
of electrical wires and cables before drilling or installing
fasteners.
WARNING: EXPLOSION AND FIRE HAZARD! CUTTING
OR DRILLING INTO GAS PLUMBING CAN CAUSE DEATH
OR SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY! ALWAYS make certain
area behind mounting surface is free of gas, water, waste, or
any other plumbing before cutting, drilling, or installing
fasteners.
1. Unfold wall plate (A) to prepare it for mounting to wall. (See
Figure 1)
2. Level wall plate (A) and mark locations of pilot holes at
desired mounting location. (See Figure 5)
IMPORTANT ! : The RMF2-RLF2-RXF2 mounts are
designed to be mounted to 8" concrete or 8"x8"x16"
concrete block.
NOTE: For the RLF2, either the inner or outer four holes may
be used.
NOTE: For the RXF2, use the outer four holes and the two
middle holes on wall plate for installation.
NOTE: The vertical center of the display will be even with the
center line indicated on the labels located directly
below each hinge. Keep this in mind when determining
mounting location. (See Figure 5)
Figure 5
3. Drill 5/16" (8mm) diameter pilot holes into wall at marked
locations. Holes must be drilled at least 3 1/4 inches deep.
(See Figure 5)
4. Install four or six concrete anchors (E) into drilled holes. Use
a hammer to tap anchors into holes. (See Figures 6 and 7)
IMPORTANT ! : The anchors must be installed through
any wall covering until flush with the concrete wall. (See
Figure 6)
Figure 6
5. Using 1/2" (12.7mm) wrench, install screws (C) through flat
washers (D), wall plate (A) and into concrete anchors (E).

Install Brackets to Display
WARNING: The minimum hole pattern size is 100mm x
100mm for the RMF2 and 200mm x 200mm for the RLF2 and
the RXF2.
1. Lay display face down on protective surface.
CAUTION: Using screws of improper diameter may
damage your display! Proper screws will easily thread into
display mounting holes.
2. Select screw diameter by examining hardware (FA-FO)
(8mm, 6mm, 5mm, or 4mm) and comparing with mounting
holes on display. (See Figure 8)
3. Select spacers: (See Figure 8)
• If mounting holes are not recessed and both
brackets (B) can lay flat against display, then no
spacers are required.
• If mounting holes are recessed, or if protrusions
prevent brackets (B) from laying flat, then spacers
(FP or FQ) must be used.
• If additional depth is needed behind display,
spacers (FP and FQ) can be stacked on top of
each other.
CAUTION: Using screws of improper length may damage
your display! Proper screws will have adequate thread
engagement without contacting bottom of display mounting
holes.
IMPORTANT ! : The M8 screws do NOT require a
washer. Use the universal washer (FS) ONLY with M4,
M5 and M6 screws.
4. Select screw length: (See Figure 8)
• Using your hand, insert SHORTEST length screw
of selected diameter (FA, FE, FI or FL) through
bracket (B), universal washer (FS, if required),
selected spacer (FP or FQ, if required), into
display mounting hole. Do NOT thread screw into
hole at this time.
• Proper screw length requires base of screw head
to protrude above flat washer a distance equal to
or greater than the screw diameter. If screw
length is inadequate, select longer screw. Select
shortest screw which will protrude the required
distance.
5. Place brackets (B) on display, ensuring: (See Figure 8)
• Upper hooks are towards top of display.
• Center of brackets (B) are as close to the center
of the back of display as possible after being
installed. Center of bracket is indicated by the
diamond-shaped hole.
6. Using Phillips screwdriver, carefully install selected screws
through universal washers (FS, if required), brackets (B),
and spacers (FP or FQ, if required), into display. (See
Figure 8)
7. Tighten all screws. Ensure all applicable display mounting
holes (4, 6, or 8) are used. Figure 8

Install Display to Wall Plate
WARNING: Exceeding the weight capacity can result in
serious personal injury or damage to equipment! It is the
installer’s responsibility to make sure the combined weight of
all components attached does not exceed 125 lbs (56.7 kg)
for the RMF2 and RLF2 or 175 lbs (79.4 kg) for the RXF2.
Use with products heavier than the maximum weight
indicated may result in collapse of the mount and its
accessories causing possible injury.
WARNING: Display may be very heavy! Ensure display
can be safely lifted and maneuvered as required to install on
wall plate. Failure to take adequate precautions can result in
serious personal injury or damage to equipment!
WARNING: Interface brackets must be hung on opposite
sides of the center tab on wall plate! (See Figure 9)
Figure 9
1. Make sure interface brackets are in the kickstand position
by pulling down on handles as far as possible. (See Figure
10)
2. Hang display with brackets (B) on upper rail of wall plate (A).
Kickstand should be engaged with lower portion of wall
plate. (See Figure 10)
