How to Install Chief PAC717 Mounting Shelf

Install the PAC717 quickly and reliably by following these general steps that align with Chief’s mounting philosophy. Ensure you have the appropriate Chief supports and hardware compatible with your existing installation to guarantee a secure fit. If you are unsure about compatibility with your specific configuration, consult your installer or Chief’s compatibility resources for guidance.

• Identify a suitable mounting location on your Chief system that provides clear visibility and easy access to literature without obstructing display content or cables.
• Remove the shelf from its packaging and align it with the selected mounting interface on the Chief system. Check that the shelf’s mounting holes line up with the corresponding attachment points.
• Attach the shelf using the appropriate hardware provided or recommended for your Chief setup. Tighten fasteners to a secure but not overtightened state to avoid compromising the anodized finish.
• Verify level alignment by using a spirit level or the system’s built-in adjustment features. Make minimal adjustments until the shelf sits evenly and securely.
• Load the shelf with literature up to the 25 lb limit, balancing heavier items toward the center to maintain stability. Recheck fasteners after loading and confirm there is no unwanted movement during gentle handling or vibrations.
