Installing Two Mounting Screws

Note: Wall anchors and mounting screws are in hardware package. The hardware package is provided with heater.

Attaching to wall stud method

For attaching mounting screw to wall stud

1.Drill hole at marked location using 9/64" drill bit.

2.Insert mounting screw into wall stud.

3.Tighten screw until 1/16" space (thickness of penny) is be- tween screwhead and wall.

Attaching to wall anchor method

Follow instructions below to attach mounting screws to hollow walls (wall areas between studs) or solid walls (concrete or masonry).

1. Drill holes at marked locations using 5/16" drill bit. For solid walls (concrete or masonry), drill at least 1 1/4" deep.

2. Fold wall anchor (see Figure 6).

3. Insert wall anchor (wings first) into hole. Tap anchor flush to wall.
