Wood stud installation

Step 1
- With an electronic stud nder, locate the ceiling stud closest to your desired location for the
KPM-400W.
- Once you identify the center of the ceiling stud, use the ceiling plate as a template and mark the
mounting hole locations with a pencil.
- Place the ceiling plate into position against the ceiling, aligning the mounting holes with the center
of the stud.
Step 2
- Remove the ceiling plate and set it aside.
- Next, drill a pilot hole in the center of each mark using a hand held drill and a 3/16˝ (4.5mm) drill bit.
Useful tip:
When a screw is driven into a material, such as wood, it can act as a wedge, generating outward
pressure which can cause the material to split. Drilling a small pilot hole into which a screw is then
driven, less 'wedging' takes place, thereby reducing the likelihood of the material being split. It
also prevents the screw head from getting sheared o by torque.
