Drill two 5/32" (4 mm) dia. holes to a minimum
depth of 2.5" (64 mm). Attach ceiling plate (G)
with two #14 x 2.5" (6 mm x 65 mm) wood
screws (F) as shown using 3/8" (10 mm) socket
wrench.
Skip to step 2.
WARNING
• Tighten wood screws (F) so that wall plate (G) 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 studs. The use of an "edge to edge" stud
finder is highly recommended.

supporting surface will safely support the combined
load of all attached hardware and components.
