Installation to Wood Stud Wall

• Installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all attached
hardware and components.

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 stud. The use of an "edge to edge" stud finder is
highly recommended.

are responsible to provide hardware for other types of mounting situations.

mounting slots should be 2.5" (65 mm) above the desired screen center as shown in figure 1.1. Level plate, and mark
the center of the two mounting holes. Make sure that the mounting holes are on the stud centerlines. Drill two 5/32"
