[3a] INSTALLATION OF WK TYPE
When mounting MODEL 096 arm bracket, the wall and the strength of the hardware used must be
checked and veried as being adequate to withstand a 45 kg shear load and 200 kg withdrawal force
at each of the three mounting bolts. When using concealed wiring, a ush mounted junction box
with the necessary conduit and wiring must be pre-installed at 113 cm from the oor.

2-3. Insert two retaining bolts securely into upper threaded
holes of arm mounting bracket and tighten securely.
IMPORTANT:
The retaining bolts must securely engage
the annular groove of horizontal arm. The removal of the
retaining bolts will allow the horizontal arm to rise verti-
cally, and out of, the arm mounting bracket.
2-4. Insert brake plug then brake screw (M6x6 mm) into the
lower threaded hole of the arm mounting bracket.
DO NOT FULLY TIGHTEN
