For each location, insert a bolt (H) and washer (J) into the wall.
Attach the bubble level (J-2) to the wall plate and with the help of an
assistant ensure the wall plate is level, position the wall plate against
the wall in the desired mounting location (Figure 2).
Tighten the bolt with an open ended socket wrench by turning clockwise
until tight (Figure 3).
You should mark four positions total. Take down the wall plate.
5/16" Socket and Wrench
Electric drill, 3/16 drill bit for wood stud installation, and 1/2" (12mm) masonry bit for concrete/brick installation
Note: Please ensure that the bubble level (J-2) is properly mounted on the wall plate prior to mounting the wall
plate.
Note: When mounting to wood studs, the two wood studs must be a minimum of 16" apart.
Use a high-quality electronic stud finder (commercially available) to
locate dead center of two studs and mark their locations with a pencil
(Figure 1).
Next, pre-drill a 3/16" hole to a depth of 2" in the wall stud at each
marked location.

CAUTION: Do not over-tighten bolts - doing so may cause unnecessary damage to the wall. Avoid excessive torque.
CAUTION: Do not release the wall plate until it is properly mounted and secured to the wall.
Step1: Wall Plate Installation
Mark the right (upper and lower) and the left (upper and lower) positions
of the small horizontal slots that are in alignment with the studs.

level.
