For hollow walls studded with metal or wood framing and sheathed with drywall, plaster, or plywood, use appropriate hollow wall fasteners in all four mounting locations through the sheathing material.
The four mounting locations on the SSA-WALL-MOUNT mounting bracket, which are located side to side on 47.18 cm (18.58 in.) centers, do not coincide with typical wall stud centers. Position the mounting bracket to avoid studs at the four mounting locations.
Toggle bolts must be at least 3/16 inch. Each of the four toggle bolts used must be rated for 14.6 kg (32.2 lb.) minimum.
Typical drill size is ½ inch for the 3/16 inch toggle bolt. Follow the manufacturer‘s instructions.
The minimum recommended size for reusable anchors is #10 size minimum. Each of the four reusable anchors must be rated for 14.6 kg (32.2 lb.) minimum and be the appropriate size for the sheathing thickness.
Typical drill size is 3/8 inch for the #10 reusable anchor. Follow the manufacturer‘s instructions.
If the rear side of the sheathing is accessible, you can bolt the wall mount bracket to the wall sheathing using four #10-#12 pan head steel machine screws with fender washers and lock nuts behind the sheathing. The screws must be long enough to fully engage all threads on the nuts.
