How deep do you drill? Check the length of the screw (not the plug!) to find the right depth – this stops
things from breaking.
3. Mark the drill at the length of the screw Ⓗ.
4. Drill until the thread of the screws Ⓗ completely fits in the holes.
Do not use the wall mount as a drill guide.
Up for some smooth sailing? Pre-drill the holes with a 5mm concrete/brick drill.
5. Attach the wall mount Ⓓ to the wall with the screws Ⓗ, and plugs Ⓘ. Use the integrated spirit level to tilt the wall mount Ⓓ until it is level.
Make sure the wall mount is mounted with the opening pointing towards the ceiling.
Lubricate the screws for easy screwing in.
