how to install Chief PDC2000B Ceiling Mount

• Plan and verify ceiling structure: Before installation, confirm that the ceiling can support the combined weight of two displays and the mount. Identify solid joists or appropriate mounting anchors and ensure there is sufficient clearance for back-to-back placement and cable routing.
• Prepare mounting hardware: Gather the included mounting plates, fasteners, and any necessary hardware recommended by Chief for ceiling installations. Use appropriate anchors for the specific ceiling type and follow weight ratings to ensure secure anchoring.
• Attach the ceiling plate: Secure the primary ceiling plate to the structural surface at the determined spacing and alignment. Ensure the plate is level and firmly tightened to prevent any tilt drift or movement during operation.
• Mount back-to-back arms and secure displays: Attach the back-to-back mounting arms to the ceiling assembly according to the installation guide. Mount each flat-panel display onto its respective arm, aligning with the VESA mounting pattern specified by the displays, and tighten all fasteners evenly to maintain balance and stability.
• Cable management and final checks: Route power and video cables through provided channels or channels designed to minimize strain. Verify the tilt range, confirm the security of all fasteners, and perform a functional test to ensure smooth tilt operation and proper alignment across both displays. Re-check after a short period of use to confirm there is no loosening or drift.
