Mount Installation
THE FOLLOWING STEPS SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY TWO PEOPLE.
For ease of installation, it is recommended that two people perform the installation. One person should hold the mount while the other person installs the lag bolt and washer. Making sure that the mount is level, the person not holding the mount must mark and drill the second mounting hole and secure the second lag bolt and washer.
If the studs are 12” apart, use three 3” lag bolts for the top row of mounting points and three 3” lag bolts for the lower row mounting points. If the studs are 16”, 18” or 24” apart, use two 3” lag bolts for the top row of mounting points and two 3” lag bolts for the lower row of mounting points.

Step 5
Insert one (1) 5/16" x 3" lag bolt and washer into the mounting hole and tighten (see WARNING: below).
Step 3
Using a 1/4” drill bit, drill a pilot hole at the first aligned and marked location.
Step 6
With the help of an assistant, place a level on the center of the mounting rail and level the mount. Mark and drill the second mounting hole.
Insert one (1) 5/16" x 3" lag bolt and washer into the mounting hole and tighten (see WARNING: below). Repeat steps 5 and 6 for the remaining mounting points.
Do NOT
If the studs are 12” (304.8mm) apart, use three 3” (76.2mm) lag bolts for the top rail and three 3” (76.2mm) lag bolts for the lower rail. If the studs are 16”(406.4mm), 18” (457.2mm) or 24” (609.6mm) apart, use two 3” lag bolts for the top rail and two 3” lag bolts for the lower rail.
