Mount the Fiber CAP L
5 Secure the Dual Wall Mount Bracket (shown below) to the wall (or other suitable vertical surface), as
described below.
a Install the Dual Wall Mount Bracket using 4 M8 (or 5/16”) screw anchors (not included) or suitable
lag bolts according to the drilling layout, as shown below.
The M6 screw anchors do not ship with the CAP L as the anchor type is dependent on the on-site
conditions (wall structure and materials). Use screw anchors that are rated for the mounting surface.
