Wall Tr im Plate

This adapter is designed for installation in new stud wall
constructions, prior to installing the gypsum board walls
(drywall).

1. Determine where AVTrac will abut the wall. (See the

AVTrac Installation Guide [part number 68-1405-01] for
factors that must be considered before installation.)
Cut out a section of the wall base stud that is 4”
(10.1 cm) wide and align the front edge of the adapter
base with the front edge of the wall base stud (see the
figure at right).

2. Mark the position of the holes in the adapter base,
and drill at least two holes into the

concrete 5/32” (0.4 cm) diameter and 1 1/2” (3.8 cm) deep. Secure

the adapter to the floor with the provided masonry screws.

3. Cut a notch 1.5” (3.8 cm) high x 4” (10.1 cm) wide
in the bottom edge of the drywall and place the
drywall over the rough-in adapter with the top edge
of the notch resting on top of the adapter’s front
support. Secure the drywall to the wall frame (see
the figure at left).

4. Install the AVTrac system. For complete information
about installing the AVTrac system, consult the
AVTrac Installation Guide.

AVTrac™ Wall Trim Plate Installation Guide

The wall trim plate is a finishing plate that compensates
for any overcuts to the existing gypsum wall during
AVTrac intstallation.

Install the trim ring in place of, or behind, existing wall
base trimmings as follows:

1. Install the AVTrac system, as described in the AVTrac
Installation Guide (part number 68-1405-01).

2. Before snapping the cover track in place and
covering the track with a carpet or rubber strip, place
the trim plate against the wall so that it is seated on
the AVTrac, covering the overcut hole in the wall.

3. Mark the position of the two holes in the trim ring on
the wall and, using the screws provided, secure the
trim plate to the wall.

4. Snap the cover track in place and cover the track
and ramps with carpet, as described in the AVTrac
Installation Guide (part number 68-1405-01). If
required, trim the wall baseboard to fit snugly
around the track and attach it to the wall, over the
trim plate.
