UNPACKING THE GAME
After unpacking the game, it is important to save the original box, all packing material, and
the receipt. These items will be needed if it ever proves necessary to return the game for
service.
MOUNTING (PHYSICAL INSTALLATION)
Two methods for mounting the dartboard are available.
1. Use the keyhole slots on the backside of the dartboard. Follow the illustration and mount
the dartboard. The two screws are screwed into the wall until the screw head is 3/8"
away from the wall. The dartboard is positioned so the two screw heads are inside the
keyhole. Slide the dartboard down to secure. The head of the screw that is used must
be larger than 1/4" and smaller than 3/8".
2. Four equally spaced holes are accessible from the front to drive in screws. With the
dartboard held in place, four screws are driven in from the front, through the existing
holes. Use 1/8" diameter screws. The head of the screw must ! t inside the pocket.
Wall Anchors
A wall with studs is the most common type of wall to mount the dartboard.
1. Locate a stud and use wood screws or sheet metal type screws to secure the dartboard.
2. If a stud cannot be located or is not in the proper location, use an anchor that is suitable
for the type of wall.
Some common anchors are:
Plastic
- Drill a snug hole in drywall and push the anchor in up
to the head. When the screw is screwed into the anchor, the
plastic will expand, locking the anchor in place. Do not use on
thin panelling.
Toggle Bolt
- Drill hole through wall. Hole must be large
enough for the wings to pass through. Insert screw through the
holes in the dartboard and thread the toggle wings just onto
the screw. Fold the wings back and push through the hole until
the wings spring open. Pull back on the screw to hold wings
against the inside of the wall and tighten screw.
Hollow wall anchor
- Drill a snug hole through the wall. Tap
anchor into the hole until the prongs on the underside of the
head are seated securely into the wall. Turn screw in and
apply pressure to keep the anchor head from turning. Tighten
screw until resistance is felt. Do not over tighten. Turn screw
out to remove. Anchor will stay and screw can be replaced.
Other methods are available. Consult a hardware store if questions arise.
