OPTION 1: Attachment into a wall stud (preferred method)
Using a stud finder, locate a stud in the wall. Place your unit against the wall, with the safety bracket
aligned in this location. To make driving the screw easier, you can drill a 1/8" diameter pilot hole (3mm)
through the safety bracket into the stud. Drive the screw through the safety bracket into the wall stud.
Tighten the screw that was not fully tighened in step 5.
OPTION 2: Attachment into drywall
Locate your unit where desired against a wall and mark the wall through the safety bracket, then move
your unit aside. Drill a 3/16" diameter hole (5mm) into the wallboard. Tap the wall anchor into the hole
until it is flush. Move your unit into location and fasten the wall bracket to the wall anchor with the
screw. Tighten the screw that was not fully tightened in step 5.
