OPTION 1: Attachment into a wall stud (preferred method)
Using a stud finder, locate a stud in the wall. Place your unit against the wall, with the safety bracket aligned in this
location. To make driving the screw easier, you can drill a 1/8" diameter pilot hole (3mm) through the safety bracket
into the stud. Drive the screw through the safety bracket into the wall stud. Tighten the screw that was not fully
tightened in step 11.
OPTION 2: Attachment into drywall
Locate your unit where desired against a wall and mark the wall through the safety bracket, then move your unit
aside. Drill a 3/16" diameter hole (5mm) into the wallboard. Tap the wall anchor into the hole until it is flush. Move
your unit into location and fasten the wall bracket to the wall anchor with the screw. Tighten the screw that was not
fully tightened in step 11.
