Before you begin, please verify that all components are included and undamaged.
If any parts are missing or damaged, contact MantelMount. Never proceed with
missing or damaged parts!
IMPORTANT: The RB100 will reduce the maximum allowable
mantel depth depending on model.
Installation with the Recess Box will reduce the maximum
allowable size of the Mantle. Also note that the Recess Box will
reduce the amount of side-to-side swivel when in the stowed
position because it does not extend out as far.
IMPORTANT: The MantelMount MM340 and MM540 will
require the installation of the SSB40 Adapter Plate, available
at mantelmount.com.
IMPORTANT: Please note that
TILTING your MantelMount with
and RB100 installed is not possible
when your mount is in the stowed
position.
The tilt function will only work
as intended when the mount is
pulled away from the wall or in the
down Position.
When returning the mount to the
stowed position, the tilt should be
brought back to a neutral upright
position so as not to hit the wall.

Custom Built Wall Studs: New wall studs are installed to t the exact dimensions of the Recess Box. This requires new drywall as well. The stud
opening is 716mm tall and 187mm wide, however the best option is to use the Recess Box as a template when nailing in the studs. The drywall
cutout is aligned with the inner opening of the studs, and the ange of the Recess Box covers the cut edge of the drywall. The Recess box is
installed using several wood screws (not included), at least six screws per inner side and two per top and bottom anges. Note that the Braces
and Brace Covers are not used in this installation. This custom installation is not covered in this Addendum.
Standard Wall Studs: This is a more convenient installation because the existing studs and drywall are used. The Recess Box is attached
to the Recess Braces which span horizontally until they reach the nearest studs. The Braces are attached to the studs with the Lag Bolts
included with MantelMount MM340-MM540. The Recess Box will oat between two studs, attached only to the Braces. The drywall opening
is cut using an included cardboard template. The ange of the Recess Box covers the cut edge of the drywall, and the paintable Brace Covers
conceal the Recess Braces.
NOTE: If the existing studs are too far apart for the horizontal Recess Braces to reach, (for instance: a center stud needs to be cut out to make
room for the Recess Box), longer Braces are available from MantelMount.com.
