Installation to Wood Stud Wall
WARNING
• Installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all
attached hardware and components.
• Tighten wood screws so that wall plate is fi rmly attached, but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage the
screws, greatly reducing their holding power.
• Never tighten in excess of 80 in. • lb (9 N.M.).
• Make sure that mounting screws are anchored into the center of the stud. The use of an "edge to edge" stud fi nder
is highly recommended.
• Hardware provided is for attachment of mount through standard thickness drywall or plaster into wood studs. Installers are responsible to provide hardware for other types of mounting situations.
In-wall box (A) must be installed between two studs 16" on

of the stud. Based on its edges, draw two vertical lines down
the inside edges of stud’s. Mark desired center of in-wall box.
Draw a horizontal line 6-1/8" (150 mm) above center of in-wall
box (A). Draw a second horizontal line 12-1/4" (311 mm) below
this line to outline wall opening between inside edges of studs.
Remove drywall inside cut outline.
NOTE: In-wall box (A) can be installed for left or right side
mount orientation as shown in fi gure 1.2.
Insert in-wall box (A) into cut-out until fl ange is fl ush with
drywall.
Level in-wall box (A), and mark the position of two mounting
holes using holes on mounting tabs. Remove in-wall box (A)
and drill 1/8" (3 mm) dia. holes 1-1/2" (38 mm) deep using
the locations previously marked. Reinstall and level in-wall
box (A). Secure using two #10 X 1-1/2" wood screws (B) as
