pressed in as far as possible and the adapters are sitting properly inside the rail before mounting devices.

Mounting On A Headwall
1. Determine the best location to install the FIT Station. Pop out the cover from the Mounting Adapter Channel to
access the two screws connecting the channel to the Mounting adapter. Remove the two screws and the lock
washers behind them to free one of the Mounting Adapters (Figure 1). Install it into the bottom rail by angling
the upper lip into the inside lip of the ARS, pull the lever back against the Mounting Adapter and push the
adapter into the rail. Once secure, release the lever (Figure 2).
2. Mount the FIT Station by installing the remaining Mounting Adapter into the top ARS the same way as step 1,
ensuring the two holes on the bottom Mounting Adapter can be seen through the Mounting Adapter Channel,
secure the Channel to the bottom Mounting Adapter using the screws and lock washers you removed in step 1.

Mounting On A Single ARS
1. Install the FIT Station by installing the Mounting Adapter attached to the Mounting Adapter Channel to the ARS
as shown in step 1. Once it is secure, release the lever, ensure the support block is sitting flush and firmly against
the wall. (Figure 4).
2. Install the Locking bar by placing it on top of the Mounting adapter so it is squeezed by the adapter and ARS.
