MSR INSTALLATION
Select And Prepare Mounting Location
WARNING: Improper installation can result
in serious personal injury or damage to equipment!
Make sure that the structural members can support a
redundant weight factor five times the total weight of
the equipment. If not, reinforce the structure before
installing the mount. It is the responsibility of the
installer to verify that the framework will safely
support the combined load of the MSR and all
attached components and equipment.
1. Use a stud sensor to locate existing stud(s), and
identify available framework.
2. Identify appropriate mounting hole pattern. See
figures 2 though 4 at right to determine appropriate
mounting hole pattern for the framework identified.
NOTE: The MSR can be mounted using either a two, or
four hole mounting pattern depending upon available
framework. (see Figures 2 through 4)
Once suitable framework and appropriate mounting
pattern have been identified:
3. Locate and mark locations of all mounting holes
making certain that marks are on center of all studs.
(see Figures 2 though 4)
4. Drill pilot holes using a 7/32” drill bit.
5. Proceed to “Mounting the MSR”.
