Mounting
Wall: Use the wood screws provided to attach the
brackets to the wall. For surfaces other than wood, use
hardware appropriate for the surface (not included). With
the brackets securely attached to the wall, attach the
V-9972 to the brackets, using the included hardware.
(See Figure 1)
Rack: Two V-9972 units may be joined together and

attach the interlock brackets and end mounting brackets
to each of the V-9972 units, then mount the combined
units into an available rack slot.
