INSTRUCTIONS
STEP 1
Installing Top Stud Spanning Adapter to Wall
Install the top 16” stud-spanning adapter, as follows:
NOTE: The top and bottom stud-spanning adapters
must be mounted to wood studs that are
16” apart on center. See Figure 2.
1. Locate the two 16” stud-spanning adapters (10),
four lag bolts (20), and four flat washers (30).
WARNING
It is the installer’s responsibility to verify that
the structure to which the mount is anchored
will safely support five times the combined load
of all attached components and equipment.
2. Determine a suitable mounting location. Keep in
mind that both stud-spanning adapters (10) must
be mounted to wood studs that are 16” apart on
center.
3. Using a stud sensor, locate the two wood studs
where you will mount the top stud-spanning
adapter (10).
4. Holding the top stud-spanning adapter (10)
against the wall, use a pencil, awl, or small nail
to mark the mounting holes where two pilot
holes will be drilled into the center of the wood
studs. Make sure that the mounting holes in the
unit are level.
5. Using a 15/64” drill bit, drill two pilot holes for
anchoring the top stud-spanning adapter (10).
6. Using two 5/16” lag bolts (20) and two 5/16”
flat washers (30), attach the top stud-spanning
adapter (10) to the wall.
