Direct Wall Mounting with Wall Mounting Bracket

The wall mounting bracket can be installed on masonry walls such as those constructed of brick or concrete, or to framed walls constructed of wood or steel framing sheathed with gypsum wallboard, drywall, wood, etc. The method used to mount the mounting bracket is dif-ferent between masonry walls and framed walls. Refer to the following sections for more detail on the method applicable to this installation.

Framed Wall

• Locate the mounting bracket on the wall in the desired location of the appliance. Level the bracket, then mark its location on the wall, including a mark-ing for each of the fastener holes in the bracket.
• For each of the marked mounting point locations, determine which points align with a structural fram-ing member. A minimum of two (2) locations must be secured into a framing member.
• At the points where a wood or metal framing mem-ber exists, the ST6X50 screw can be installed directly into that structural member.
• For every mounting hole that does not align with a structural framing member, a wall board toggle-bolt anchor must be used. See Figure 3.
• The toggle-bolt anchors are provided to accomodate the required anchor points based on the appliance. Use of toggle bolt anchors requires drywall thick-ness of minimum 1/2 in. and drilled holes size of 1/2 in. diameter.
• Insert the bolt through the front side of the mounting bracket and thread the toggle onto it from the rear of the bracket. See Figure 4.
• Fold the toggle wings flush against the bolt and push them through a drilled hole until the toggle wings expand open on the other side. See Figure 5.
• Pull back on the bolt and tighten. See Figure 5. Note: This product cannot be installed on a wall sheathed with drywall less than 1/2 in. thick, unless all six (6) anchor points in the mounting bracket align with structural framing members.

NOTICE : Minimum eight (8) screws and/or toggle bolt anchors are required for wall mounting.
WARNING! Risk of Damage or Personal Injury! Al-lowable pull-out and shear strength are 25% of ultimate values or less, as required by building authorities.

Masonry Wall

• Locate the mounting bracket on the wall in the desired location of the appliance. Level the bracket, then mark its location on the wall, including a mark-ing for each of the fastener holes in the bracket.
  NOTICE : Minimum six (6) screws and anchors are required for MASONRY wall mounting.

• In the marked locations, drill 5/16 in. diameter x 2 in. deep holes. See Figure 6.

• Insert the provided wall anchors into the holes.

• Gently tap the anchors with a hammer until they are flush with the wall surface.

• With mounting hooks pointed up, attach the bracket to the masonry anchors with ST6X50 screws. See Figure 7.

WARNING! Risk of Damage or Personal Injury! Do not use supplied masonry anchors on hollow walls, sheathed with wood, gypsum wallboard, drywall or other materials.
