Attaching the node to a wall
Required materials:
•
Mount bracket
•
Four screws (included in the mount kit) or masonry anchors (not included in
the mount kit)
•
Node with one bracket piece with hooks
To attach a node to a wall:
1.
Make sure you have enough space above the mount bracket so you can hang
the mount plate hooks on the rails.
2.
Use four screws or masonry anchors to attach the mount bracket securely to
the wall. Put the screws or anchors in the two holes near the top and the two
holes at the bottom of the bracket.
3.
Hang the node by the plate hooks on the rail.
The installation is correct if the node does not easily move from side to side, and
the connectors are oriented to the ground.
Note:
You can add other straps or a sling to increase durability of the attachment
to the wall.
Best practice:
Use a spray to prevent corrosion on the bracket and mount
hardware.
