AXELL 3604 A284 SERIES UHF REPEATER

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND USER’S MANUAL

4.5.3 Requirements

The Repeater wall mount brackets assembly should be fixed to a solid wall (these include

brickwork, blockwork, and concrete.);

Due to the weight of the Repeater, it is NOT recommended to fix to a hollow wall.

Figure 4-4. M6 Rawlbolt – recommended for wallmount.

IMPORTANT!

Always check that there are no pipes or cables hidden in the wall beneath

the area to be drilled. Various pipe and cable detectors are available for

this type of inspection.

To provide secure fixing to a solid wall, the most common method is drilling and plugging.

The size of fixing is dependent on the item to be fixed and the nature of the wall, The

Repeater should be fixed with mild steel, M6 (50mm to 75mm) Rawl bolts or similar.

4.5.4 Planning the Repeater Location and Drilling

1. Mark out on the chosen wall the fixing centres of the repeater and the location of the

brackets.

2. Mark and drill the wall with the correct size masonry bit as specified by the fixing

manufacturer.

WARNING: It is good practice to wear goggles to protect your eyes from

flying debris when using power tools.

3. Hold the drill bit against the mark and begin drilling slowly so that the bit does not

wander from the position. The wall should be drilled to a depth which is sufficient to

accommodate the full length of the fixing.

4. Insert the fixings so that the top of the sleeve/anchor section is level with the wall

surface.

5. Gently tighten the bolt by hand so that the anchor section of the fixing expands and grips

the inside of the hole.

6. As the bolt pulls its way in, the sides of the anchor section are forced outwards, gripping

the surrounding surface.
