Important information
Safely mounting the interactive whiteboard requires two people because it is too heavy for one
l
person to safely maneuver. When you and your assistant lift the interactive whiteboard, support
its weight at the bottom, avoiding the corner cameras, and balance the top with your other
hands.
The weight of the interactive whiteboard is approximately 52 lb. (23.7 kg) for the SMART Board
l
880 interactive whiteboard and 61 lb. (27.5 kg) for the SMART Board 885 interactive whiteboard.
Check your local building codes to ensure that the wall can support this weight, and use
appropriate mounting hardware for the type of wall.
To prevent injury or product and property damage, use only the mounting hardware supplied
l
with the SMART Board 800 series interactive whiteboard when you install the product on drywall.
The mounting hardware provided with other interactive whiteboards may not be strong enough
to support the weight of a SMART Board 800 series interactive whiteboard.
Use two wall-mounting brackets to install SMART Board interactive whiteboards with a diagonal
l
width of 87" (221 cm).
For operating safety and to prevent damage to the interactive whiteboard, connect its USB
l
connector, or SMART connection extenders, only to a computer that has a USB compliant
interface and that bears the USB logo. In addition, the USB source computer must be compliant
with CSA/UL/EN 60950 and bear the CE mark and CSA and/or UL mark(s) for CSA/UL 60950.
To prevent injury or product damage as a result of tipping, mount the interactive whiteboard only
l
on a floor stand that is certified for use with SMART Board 800 series interactive whiteboards,
such as the SMART FS670 Mobile Floor Stand or SMART HAWM FS-UX Mobile Height-Adjustable
Floor Stand. Do not modify the interactive whiteboard or the floor stand to make them
compatible.
Move a floor stand-supported SMART Board interactive whiteboard with care. Sudden stops,
l
excessive force and uneven surfaces may cause the product to overturn.
Caution
If you're replacing a SMART Board 500 or 600 series interactive whiteboard with the heavier
l
SMART Board 800 series interactive whiteboard on drywall, you must remove the wall-mount
bracket and mounting hardware, and then install all the mounting hardware and brackets
supplied with the SMART Board 800 series interactive whiteboard instead.
If you need to lean your interactive whiteboard against a wall, make sure that it remains in an
l
upright position, resting on its pen tray brackets, which are designed to sustain the interactive
whiteboard's weight. Do not rest the interactive whiteboard on its side, on the top of its frame or
on the corners of the frame where the cameras are located.
