5. Setup and Installation
Follow these steps carefully for secure installation.
- Choose Mounting Location: Select a sturdy wall location (wood stud, concrete, or brick) that can support the weight of the mount and projector. Avoid drywall only installations.
- Mark Drill Holes: Position the wall plate of the mount against the wall at the desired height and use a pencil to mark the two drill hole locations.
- Drill Holes: Drill two pilot holes at the marked locations. The drill bit size will depend on your wall type and the provided hardware (e.g., for wood studs, a smaller pilot hole; for concrete/brick, a larger hole for expansion pipes).
- Install Wall Plate: Insert the expansion pipes (C) into the drilled holes if mounting into concrete/brick. Align the wall plate with the holes and secure it to the wall using the Phillips screws (B) and washers (D). Ensure the screws are tightened firmly.
- Attach Universal Head: Secure the universal ball head to the front of the bracket. Ensure all screws are tightened firmly to prevent loosening.
- Mount Projector: Carefully attach your projector to the universal ball head using the appropriate screw (1/4", M4, or M6) that fits your projector's mounting hole. Ensure the projector is securely fastened.

6. Operating and Adjustment
Once installed, the mount allows for flexible positioning of your projector.
- Horizontal Swivel: The arm of the mount can swivel up to 180 degrees horizontally. Loosen the fixing knot slightly to adjust, then re-tighten to secure.
- 360 Degree Rotation: The universal ball head allows for a full 360-degree rotation of the projector. Loosen the ball-head screw, adjust the projector's orientation, and then tighten the screw firmly to lock it in place.
- Tilt Adjustment: The universal ball head also enables tilting the projector up to 90 degrees down and 30 degrees up. Loosen the ball-head screw, adjust the tilt angle, and then tighten the screw firmly. Note that the universal head needs to be locked into its grooves to achieve the maximum tilt angles.

8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your WALI Projector Wall Mount, refer to the following common solutions.

- Check that the universal head is properly seated and locked into its grooves for maximum stability, especially when tilting.
- Mount feels loose on the wall:
- Re-tighten the screws securing the wall plate to the wall.
- Confirm that the mount is installed into a solid wood stud, concrete, or brick, not just drywall.
- Difficulty adjusting angles:
- Loosen the relevant fixing knots or screws slightly before attempting to adjust, then re-tighten.
