OPTIONS AND ACCESSORIES
Wall Mount Kit (PWC Models)
Mounting the unit on a wall requires special considerations and
procedures due to the weight of the unit. Follow the guidelines
below when determining the location for wall mounting as well
as during installation.
• The wall bracket must be fastened to a wall with 16″
(406 mm) on center, solid wood 2x4 stud construction
covered by a minimum of 1/2″ (13 mm) thick sheathing.
• The wall bracket must be installed with four 1/4″ x 2-1/2″ (6 x
64 mm) lag screws that solidly hit the wood studs in the wall.
• Make sure the unit is installed where the ambient air
temperature will not rise above 113°F (45°C) and where it will
not be exposed to excessive moisture or grease-laden air.
• Make sure the unit is at the proper height in an area
convenient for use.

Installation Procedure
Use the following procedure to install a wall-mounted unit.
1. Make sure the mounting location meets the requirements
listed previously in this procedure.
2. Determine the height for the unit installation.
• Mark the wall at the desired height for the top of the unit.
NOTE: The top of the wall bracket is approximately 1-1/2″
(36 mm) inches above the top of the unit after
installation.
3. Locate the wood stud positions in the wall.
• Determine which studs to use for installation. The studs
used must allow the wall bracket to be installed with the
mounting holes a distance of 16″ (407 mm) on center
from each other.
4. Install the wall bracket onto the wall.
a. Center and level the wall bracket on the desired studs.
Mark the locations for the four lag screws through the
holes in each side of the bracket.
b. Drill four 3/16″ (5 mm) pilot holes in the wall at each
marked location for the lag screws. The lag screws are
1/4″ (6 mm) in diameter and 2-1/2″ (64 mm) long.
c. Insert four lag screws through the wall bracket and into
the pre-drilled pilot holes in the wall.
d. Tighten each lag screw securely.
