drywall with
wood stud
The wall plate fits for single wood stud installation.
Step 2 Wall plate installation
:
Option 1 Wall plate installation in wood stud
To avoid potential body injury or property damage:
1. Wall mount must be installed into wood stud's center, not drywall alone.
2. Drywall covering the wood stud must not exceed 16 mm (5/8 in.).
3. Minimum wood stud size: common 2 x 4 in(51 x 102 mm). Nominal 1 1/2 x 3 1/2 in(38 x 89mm)
4. The wall must be capable of supporting five times the weight of TV plus mount.
5. Make sure the
BOLT
HEAD
on the wall plate is upward as the picture shows.
6. All lag bolts MUST BE firmly tightened to prevent unwanted movement of the wall plate.
Ensure the wall plate is securely fastened to the wall before continuing on to the next step.
Failure to follow this instruction will possibly lead to TV falling off from wall, and would possibly
cause body injuries or property loss.
