EV40 Manual
FOR HOLLOW-WALL CONSTRUCTION
¥
Place the unit such that both mounting holes can take advantage of solid structural
framing inside of the wall or a strong wall surface such as ply- wood.
¥
Size ¼-20 lag screws are recommended for mounting the EV to a wooden structure.
Pre-drill appropriately sized pilot holes to allow the lag screw
to grip the wooden structure while preventing the wood from cracking or
splintering while the screw is fastened.
¥
The included plastic angle washers can be oriented to allow the lag screws to be
fastened at an angle while still providing a solid flat backing to the screw head.
¥
If the screw head is smaller than the 3/8" washer aperture, an additional flat washer
will need to be placed between the plastic angle washer and the head of the lag
screw.
¥
If either mounting hole does not have a solid mounting structure (such as drywall
without a solid backing) it will be necessary to use proper anchor- ing hardware
such as drywall toggles or molly bolts.
