Studs
Center
1
Find the studs, using one of the following
methods:
A. Stud finder – a magnetic device which
locates nails.
B. Use a hammer to tap lightly across the
mounting surface to find a solid sound.
This will indicate a stud location.
2
After locating the stud(s), find the center by
probing the wall with a small nail to find the
edges of the stud. Then place a mark halfway
between the edges. The center of any adjacent
studs should be 16" or 24" from this mark.
3
Draw a line down the center of the studs.
THE OVEN MUST BE CONNECTED TO AT LEAST
ONE WALL STUD.
