Installing the wall plate
(concrete/brick wall
)
If you are installing this mounting system in
masonry (concrete), proceed to step 6.
CAUTION: Avoid drilling near electrical
wiring and water pipes. The mounting system
must be attached to a weight bearing wall
and must be installed directly onto the center
of the wood studs. Failure to observe all
safety precautions can result in serious
physical injury and/or property damage.
Consult a professional installer or call
customer service if you have any questions.
CAUTION: Wood studs must be no
smaller than 2 x 4 in. in size.
□ Use a commercially-available stud finder to
locate the stud centers in the wall. Studs are
usually spaced 16 in. apart.
□ Use the wall plate (A) as a template to mark
the installation holes. Use a level to ensure the
plate is level.
□ Use a 5/32 in. (4 mm) wood drill bit to drill 3
in. (76 mm) pilot holes.

anchors are completely flush to the concrete
surface even if covered by a layer of joint
compound or other material
