201HR WALL MOUNT INSTRUCTIONS (CONT.)
Wall Mount Instructions Caution: When wall mounting the 201HR, ensure that the mounting location is free of electrical lines, gas pipes, and other safety hazards. Ensure that wall is of construction that can support the 201HR. Note: Do not mount the 201HR on a door.
1. Determine where the height rod will be mounted.
2. Position the height rod so that the back of the end caps are facing the wall. The footpiece should be resting on the floor and the end caps should be flush against the wall. The height rod should be vertically straight and not leaning against the wall. There must be room between the wall and the height rod to allow for the spacers to be inserted.
3. Use a level to ensure the height rod is vertically straight and plumb. While holding the level and height rod in place, insert a thin pencil or screw to mark the screw hole in the top hole. Next mark the screw holes for the center and bottom holes.

4.Once the holes are marked, set aside the height rod.
– If mounting to drywall or plasterboard, use a 5mm (3/16″) drill bit to drill a lead hole into the marked location.
– If mounting to wood, wood studs or metal, use a 1.5mm (1/16″) drill bit to drill a lead hole into the marked location.

5. If mounting to drywall or plasterboard, use a Phillips head screwdriver to set a drywall anchor into the drilled hole in the wall.
Note: If mounting on wood, wood studs or metal, you do not need to install drywall anchors and can skip to the next step. 6. Obtain three of the 2″ screws
and plastic spacers from the plastic bag. Reposition the height rod against the wall lining up the holes with the drywall anchors or drilled lead holes. Starting with the top hole, insert the screw through the front of the height rod into the spacer placed behind the height rod then into the drywall anchor or drilled lead hole. Using a Phillips head screwdriver, tighten the screw only three turns to hold the height rod in place. Next, move to the bottom hole of the height rod and insert the screw and spacer into the bottom drywall anchor or drilled lead hole, again only tightening with three turns. Repeat the process with the center hole.

7. a. Check alignment with a level and
verify correct measurements. If level or height measurement is off, repeat steps 3-5. If height rod is level, tighten screws until height rod is securely attached to the wall. b. Check that the height rod can slide down to measure below 53″ / 134.5cm. To slide the height rod below 53″, press the black button at the top of the height rod to release the lock then slide the headpiece down. If height rod does not slide down, further tighten the screws into the wall. Once level, with smooth upward and downward motion, the height rod is ready for use.
