file or other suitable tool, carefully cut out the

rectangular opening. Note: The corners of the

rectangle may be round. IMPORTANT: Do not

exceed the size of the rectangle on template.

7. Create three openings in the mantel wall ac-

cording to Template 2, page 41. This is best

done by making a pattern to work with on the

mantel. Carefully cut page 39/40 from manual

wall at preferred location. Pierce the paper at

the centers of the 2 holes with a nail or sharp

pencil, leaving a mark on the wall. Do the

same at centers of the four circles near the

corners of the rectangle.

8. Remove paper template from mantel wall.

9. Drill 1/8" pilot holes at each mark for top and

bottom screw holes. Drill 3/8" holes at each

mark for centers of four circles near corners

of rectangle.

10. Using a straight edge and pencil, connect the

outer edges of the 4 holes for the rectangle (see

Figure 10). This will give you cutting lines for

the rectangle you will cut in the mantel wall.

11. Using a keyhole saw, hack saw blade, drill,

file or other suitable tool, carefully cut out the

rectangular opening. Note: The corners of the

rectangle may be round. IMPORTANT: Do not

exceed the size of the rectangle on template.
