Direct Wall Mounting with Wall Mounting Bracket
The wall mounting bracket can be installed on masonry
walls such as those constructed of brick or concrete,
or to framed walls constructed of wood or steel framing
sheathed with gypsum wallboard, drywall, wood, etc.
The method used to mount the mounting bracket is dif-
ferent between masonry walls and framed walls. Refer
to the following sections for more detail on the method
applicable to this installation.
Framed Wall
• Locate the mounting bracket on the wall (orient the
bracket with the hooks pointing upwards) in the
desired location of the appliance. Refer to figure 4.1
when planning the location of the wall mount bracket
in relation to the electrical receptacle. Level the
bracket, then mark its location on the wall, includ-
ing a marking for each of the fastener holes in the
bracket.
• For each of the marked mounting point locations,
determine which points align with a structural fram-
ing member. A minimum of two (2) locations must
be secured into a framing member.
• At the points where a wood or metal framing mem-
ber exists, the ST6X50 screw can be installed
directly into that structural member.
• For every mounting hole that does not align with a
structural framing member, a wall board toggle-bolt
anchor must be used. See Figure 4.3.
