Attaching the Mounting Bracket to a Wall With Wooden Studs

This section contains the procedure you use to mount the CTS-1300 to the wall using wooden studs.

To attach the CTS-1300 mounting bracket to the wall, perform the following steps:


Step 1 Using a stud finder or other method, locate the studs in the wall.

Step 2 Mark the location of the two studs to use for the CTS-1300 mounting bracket.

These studs can be 16, 20, or 24 inches (40.6, 51 or 61 centimeters) apart.

Step 3 Using the mounting bracket as a template, measure and drill six 1/4-inch holes as follows:

Drill four holes that go into the center of the stud: two holes for the top rail and two holes on the bottom rail.


Note Each horizontal piece has two rows of holes. Make sure that you mount the bracket so that the screws go into the upper row of holes.


Drill two holes that go into the slot at each end of the top rail.


Tip Use a level on the bracket when you measure the holes. Leveling the holes ensures that the bracket is horizontally level when it is mounted.
