STEP 5 - Option 1: Installing on a wood stud wall
Note: Drywall covering the wall must not exceed 5/8" (16 mm).
1 Locate the stud. Verify the center of the stud with an edge-to-edge stud finder.
2 Align the wall plate template (D) at the height you determined in the previous
step and make sure that it is level. Tape the wall plate template to the wall, then
use a pencil to mark the lag bolt hole locations (4) on the stud centers. Remove
the wall plate template.
3 Drill pilot holes to a depth of 3 in. (75 mm) using a 7/32 in. (5.5 mm) diameter drill
bit.
4 Align the wall plate (A) with the pilot holes, insert the lag bolts (T) through the
lag washers (S) and the holes in the wall plate, then tighten the lag bolts only
until they are firm against the wall plate.
CAUTION: Avoid potential injuries or property damage!
DO NOT over-tighten the lag bolts (T).
