Installation to Wood Stud Wall
• 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.

Use a stud finder to locate the edges of the studs. Use of an edge-to-edge stud finder is highly recommended. Based
on their edges, draw a vertical line down each stud's center. Place wall plate (K) on wall as a template. Level plate,
and mark the center of the four mounting holes. Make sure that the mounting holes are on the stud centerline. Drill
four 5/32" (4 mm) dia. holes 2-1/2" (65 mm) deep. Make sure that the wall plate (K) is level, secure it using four
#14 x 2.5" wood screws (G) and fender washers (V) as shown in figure 2.1.
