3-1 Mark the wall and drill pilot holes
For assistance in determining wall plate location, see Height Finder at sanus.com.
Level the wall plate template [01] and mark the hole locations.
CAUTION:
Avoid potential injuries or property damage!
Mount the wall plate [03] directly onto the concrete surface
Minimum solid concrete thickness: 203mm (8 in.)
Minimum concrete block size: 203 x 203 x 406 mm (8 x 8 x 16 in.)
Minimum horizontal space between lag bolts: 41 cm (16 in.).
3-2 Insert anchors and lag bolts
CAUTION:
Avoid potential injuries or property damage!
Pilot holes MUST be drilled to a depth of 75 mm (3 in.) using a 10 mm (3/8 in.) diameter drill bit
Never drill into the mortar between blocks
Insert lag bolt anchors [27]. Then insert lag bolts [29] through the washers [28], the wall plate [03], and into the anchors.
CAUTION:
Improper use could reduce the holding power of the lag bolt. To avoid potential injuries or property damage:
Be sure the anchors [27] are seated flush with the concrete surface
Tighten the lag bolts [29] only until the washers [28] are pulled firmly against the wall plate [03]
DO NOT over-tighten the lag bolts [29]
