Installation to Wood Stud Walls
Use a stud finder to locate the edges of the stud.
Use of an edge-to-edge stud finder is highly
recommended. Based on its edges, draw a vertical
line down the stud’s center. Place wall plate ( A)
on wall as a template. Mark the center of the four
mounting holes. Drill four 5/32” (4 mm) dia. holes
2-1/2” (65 mm) deep. Secure wall plate ( A) to wood
stud using four #14 x 2-1/2” wood screws ( I) as
shown.
• 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.
Installers are responsible to provide hardware for other types of mounting situations.
