Step 1: Wall plate installation

A) Wood Stud Installation

NOTE: For secure wood stud mounting, the wall plate must be mounted to two studs at least 16" apart.

1Use a high-quality electronic stud finder (commercially available) to locate two adjacent studs and mark their locations with a pencil (1-a).

2Attach the bubble level (L-2) to the wall plate and with the help of an assistant ensure the wall plate is level, position the wall plate against the wall in the desired mounting location (figure 1-b).

3Mark the right (upper and lower) and the left (upper and lower) positions of the small horizontal slots that are in alignment with the studs.

4You should mark four positions total.

5Pre-drill a /16" hole to a depth of 3" in the wall stud at each marked location.

6Position the wall plate against the wall and line up the mounting slots with the drilled holes. Check the bubble level to verify that the wall plate is level.

7For each location, insert a lag bolt (J) and washer (L-1) into the wall (figure 1-c).

8Tighten each bolt with an open ended socket wrench by turning clockwise until tight.

CAUTION: Do not over-tighten bolts-doing so many cause unnecessary damage to the wall. Avoid excessive torque.

CAUTION: Do not release the wall plate until it is properly mounted and secured to the wall.
