Wood Stud Wall Mounting:
1a
WARNING
• Make sure that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the
equipment and all attached hardware and components.
• Tighten wood screws firmly, but do not over tighten. Over tightening can damage
the screws, greatly reducing their holding power.
• Make sure that mounting screws are anchored into the center of the studs. 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 studs. Installers are responsible to provide hardware for other types
of mounting situations.

WARNING
• When installing wall mounts on cinder block, verify that you have a minimum of
1-3/8” of actual concrete thickness in the hole to be used for the concrete anchors.
Do not drill into mortar joints! Be sure to mount in a solid part of the block,
generally 1” minimum from the side of the block. It is suggested electric drill on
slow setting is used to drill the hole instead of a hammer drill to avoid breaking out
the back of the hole when entering a void or cavity.
• Installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined
load of the equipment and all attached hardware and components.
Solid Brick And Concrete Block Mounting:
1b
• Use the wall plate as a template to mark six holes locations on the wall, as shown in fig.1.2.
• Pre-drill these holes with a 10mm masonry bit to at least 60mm in depth. Insert a concrete anchor (W-B)
into each of these holes. Attach the wall plate to the wall using six wood screws (W-A) and six washers
(W-C), as shown in fig.1.3.
• 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 on wall as a template. And mark the center of the two mounting holes. Make sure that the
mounting holes are on the stud centerline.
• Drill two 1/8” (3mm) dia. Holes 1.2” (30mm) deep. Make sure that the wall plate is level, secure it using
two screws (W-A) and two washers(W-C) as shown in fig. 1.1.
