Installation to Wood Stud Wall
• Installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all
attached hardware and components.
• Tighten wood screws so that wall plate is firmly attached, but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage the
screws, greatly reducing their holding power.
• Never tighten in excess of 80 in. • lb (9 N.M.).
• Make sure that mounting screws are anchored into the center of the stud. The use of an "edge to edge" stud finder
is highly recommended.
• Hardware provided is for attachment of mount through standard thickness drywall or plaster into wood studs. Install-
ers are responsible to provide hardware for other types of mounting situations.
Using a stud finder, locate the edges of the wood studs used in mounting this product. Use of an edge-to-edge stud
2
finder is highly recommended. Based on its edges and using a level, draw a vertical line down the center of each
stud. Mark a point (point 1) on the right stud centerline where upper right slot will be located. Using a level, mark a
point (point 2) on the left stud centerline level with point 1 as shown in figure 2.1. Drill 5/32" diameter holes 2-1/2"
deep through studs at the two points. Loosely fasten wall mount assembly (A) to wall using two #14 x 2-1/2" wood
screws (D) as shown in figure 2.2. Level, hold, and then tighten screws.
Mark two more points for bottom slots on the right and left stud centerlines. Drill 5/32" diameter holes 2-1/2" deep
through studs at the two points. Using two #14 x 2-1/2" wood screws, fasten bottom of wall mount assembly to wall
as shown in figure 2.3.
