supplied with a plastic mounting plate. When securing either, the correct fasteners for the wall type
must be used.

anchor.

wall sheathing using four #10-#12 Pan Head Steel Machine Screws with fender washers and lock
nuts behind the sheathing. Length used must be adequate to fully engage all threads on the
nuts.
