In-wall box (A) can be installed between two studs
16" off center. Use a stud fi nder to locate the
edges of the studs. Use of an edge-to-edge stud
fi nder is highly recommended. Based on its edges,
draw two vertical lines down the inside edges of
the studs. Mark desired center of in-wall box. Draw
a horizontal line 4-15/16" (125mm) above desired
center of in-wall box. Draw a second horizontal
line 9-3/4" (247mm) below this line to outline wall
opening between inside edges of studs. Remove
drywall inside cut outline.
Insert in-wall box (A) into wall until fl ange is fl ush
with drywall as shown in fi g. 1.1.
Level in-wall box, and mark center of the four
mounting holes. Make sure that the mounting
holes are on stud centerlines. Drill four 3/16"
(5mm) dia. holes 1-1/2" (38mm) deep. Make sure
in-wall box is level, and secure it using four wood
screws (B) as shown in fi g. 1.2.
Installation to Wood Stud Wall
1
• Installer must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined load of the equipment and all
attached hardware and components.
• Tighten wood screws so that in-wall box is fi rmly attached, but do not overtighten. Overtightening can damage the
screws, greatly reducing their holding power.
• Never tighten in excess of 80 in. • lb (9 N.M.).
• Make sure that mounting screws are anchored into the center of the stud. The use of an "edge to edge" stud fi nder
is highly recommended.
• Hardware provided is for attachment of mount through standard thickness drywall or plaster into wood studs.
Installers are responsible to provide hardware for other types of mounting situations.
