1b. Mount on Solid Brick, Concrete or Concrete Block
• When installing wall mounts onto a concrete masonry unit (also known as a CMU or
"cinder block"), verify that the actual concrete thickness is at least 35mm (1-3/8")
in order to hold the concrete anchors. DO NOT DRILL INTO MORTAR JOINTS! Be sure
to mount the assembled wall plate with the included concrete anchors, D6 washers
and anchor bolts onto solid sections of the blocks. The solid sections can generally
be found 25mm (1") toward the middle of the block from either end. An electric drill
on a slow setting is suggested to drill the hole rather than a hammer drill so as to
avoid breaking out the back of the hole when entering a hollow section.
• Installers must verify that the supporting surface will safely support the combined
load of the equipment and all attached hardware and components.
