Wall-Mounting The Satellites - JBL CS68 Owner's Manual

WALL-MOUNTING THE SATELLITES

The CS68 satellites are designed to be mounted on the wall. There is
a fixed-mount wall bracket and an adjustable wall bracket provided
for each satellite. Each speaker bracket will require up to four
1-1/2" #10 wood screws; each screw should be fastened to a wall
stud. If a wall stud is unavailable, install an anchor appropriate for a
1-1/2" #10 screw.
NOTE: The customer is responsible for the correct selection and use
of mounting hardware (available through hardware stores) that will
ensure the proper and safe wall-mounting of the speakers.
Fixed-Mount Wall Bracket
Step 1. Mark the positions on the wall where you would like to
place the mounting screws.
Step 2. Attach the bracket to the wall using two screws
(not included).
Step 3. Remove the rubber ring on the bottom of the satellite and sit
the satellite speaker onto the back bracket.
Step 4. Attach 1/4-20" screw into insert on bottom of speaker
and tighten.
Adjustable Wall Bracket
Step 1. Remove cap over threaded insert on rear of speaker.
Step 2. Mark the positions on the wall where you would like to place
the mounting screws.
Step 3. Place bracket against the wall and fasten four 1-1/2" #10
wood screws through the bracket's screw holes into the wall. If a
wall stud is not available, use an appropriate anchor.

Step 5. Screw the ball and shaft assembly (B) to the 1/4"-20 insert on
the back of the satellite (do not use the bottom insert). Back out 1/2
of a turn and tighten the nut against the speaker. If the ball and shaft
assembly is not backed out before tightening the nut, performing
Step 8 below may dislodge the threaded insert in the speaker
housing and permanently damage the speaker.
Step 6. Attach speaker wire as shown on page 6.
Step 7. Drop round collar (C) over ball and shaft assembly (B) that is
mounted to the speaker with the finished side of the collar facing the
rear of the speaker.
Step 8. Carefully push the ball straight into the socket mounted on
the wall, angle the speaker as desired and tighten the collar using
the enclosed metal bar.
