mounting plate
60" (152.4 cm) from floor
puts the inverter display
panel at approx. 65"
high.
Multiple mounting plates should fit together
as shown.
1Locate the wall studs.
If necessary, enhance the support surface with a ¾" plywood panel
secured to the wall studs. Plywood should span at least three wall studs.
Use hardware sized to support a minimum of 500 lbs (not provided) to
secure the plywood to the wall.
Using a level, secure the first mounting bracket to the wall. Use
recommended anchoring hardware to secure the plate (see Table 2-1).
Mount the next bracket adjacent to the first one. The brackets are designed
to interlock, so additional mounting brackets are easily installed without
additional measuring or levelling.
