centerline.
5. With the support tabs facing forward (see illustrations in the
"Locate Wall Stud(s)" section), align the mounting plate center
markers to the centerline on the wall, making sure its bottom
edge is aligned to the horizontal line drawn in Step 3 and that
the end holes are properly marked. Make sure the mounting
plate is level.
6. Holding the mounting plate in place, find the wall stud
centerline(s) drawn in Step 2 of "Locate Wall Stud(s)"
and mark at least one, preferably two hole(s) through the
mounting plate, closest to the wall stud centerline(s). See
figures 1, 2, and/or 3 in "Possible Wall Stud Configurations" in
the "Locate Wall Stud(s)" section. The blackened holes in the
shaded areas are ideal hole locations.

Drill Holes in Rear Wall

In addition to being installed on at least one wall stud, the
mounting plate must attach to the wall at both end holes. If the
end holes are not over wall studs, use two 3/16-24 x 3" (7.6 cm)
round head bolts with toggle nuts; if 1 end hole is over a wall
stud, use one lag screw and one 3/16-24 x 3" (7.6 cm) round-
head bolt with toggle nut; or if both end holes are over wall studs,
use two lag screws. Following are 3 installation configurations.
Installation for No Wall Studs at End Holes
(Figures 1 and 2)
1. Drill 5/8" (1.6 cm) holes through the wall at both end holes
marked in Step 3 of the "Mark Rear Wall" section.
2. Drill 3/16" (5 mm) hole(s) into the wall stud(s) at the hole(s)
marked in Step 6 of the "Mark Rear Wall." Refer to figures 1
and 2 in "Possible Wall Stud Configurations" in the "Locate
Wall Stud(s)" section.
Installation for Wall Stud at One End Hole (Figure 3)
1. Drill a 3/16" (5 mm) hole into the wall stud at the end hole
marked in Step 3 of the "Mark Rear Wall" section.
2. If installing on a second wall stud, drill a 3/16" (5 mm) hole
into the wall stud at the other hole marked in Step 6 of the
"Mark Rear Wall" section. Refer to Figure 3 in "Possible Wall
Stud Configurations" in the "Locate all Stud(s)" section.
3. Drill a 5/8" (1.6 cm) hole through the wall at the other end
hole.
Installation for Wall Studs at Both End Holes
(Figure 4)
1. Drill 3/16" (5 mm) holes into the studs at the end holes
marked in Step 3 of the "Mark Rear Wall" section.

Attach Mounting Plate to Wall

NOTE: Secure the mounting plate to the wall at both end holes
drilled into the wall studs and/or drywall using either 3/16-24 x 3"
(7.6 cm) round-head bolts and toggle nuts or 1/4 x 2" (5.1 cm) lag
screws.
Refer to illustrations in "Possible Wall Stud Configurations" in the
"Locate Wall Stud(s)" section.
No Wall Studs at End Holes (Figures 1 and 2)
NOTE: The mounting plate must be secured to the wall on at
least one wall stud, as well as at both ends.
1. With the support tabs of the mounting plate facing forward,
insert 3/16-24 x 3" (7.6 cm) round-head bolts through both
end holes of mounting plate.
2. Start toggle nuts on bolts from the back of the mounting
plate. Leave enough space for the toggle nuts to go through
the wall and to open.
