Attaching the Wall Bracket to Concrete (cont.)
Warning!
Make sure the concrete wall is solid and at least 8 inches (20 cm) thick.
If the concrete exhibits cracks or other defects, this may result in failure of the
concrete anchors and cause serious personal injury or damage to your display.
1.
Place the wall bracket template
up to the marked locations, and
tape it to the wall. Use the
provided bubble level to make
sure the template is level before
drilling. Use a pencil to mark the
six locations as shown, and place
a piece of tape over each mark.
2.
Use a 1/2-inch (12 mm) concrete
drill bit to predrill the marked
spots 3.7 inches (95 mm) deep,
and then clean out the debris
from the holes.
3.
Remove the template,
and insert the concrete
anchors into the predrilled
holes. Use a hammer to
tap the anchors into the
concrete.
4.
Screw in the top two
anchor screws that
correspond to the wall
bracket’s seating holes,
and leave a 5 mm gap
between the wall and the
screw’s head.
5.
Seat the wall bracket onto
the two anchor screws
using the two seating
holes.
6.
Insert the remaining four
anchor screws through
the washers and the wall
brackets’ mounting holes,
and screw them into the
anchors until secure.
7.
Screw in the first two anchor screws the rest of the way
until secure. Use the wrench to further tighten the screws,
but do not overtighten.
