Installation
To ensure proper installation and compliance to building codes, it is recommended that a
qualified person or carpenter perform the installation of the unit. The unit must be properly
installed onto a permanent wall that is capable of supporting significant weight and can
accommodate the supplied installation hardware.
1. For Masonry or Tile over Stud Wall: Use a 1/4" (6mm) masonry drill bit for the pilot hole until you hit the stud. Change bit to 1/8" (3mm) regular drill bit.
For walls with Metal Studs, Concrete Block: If the wall has wood studs that are not on 16" (40.6cm) centers, has metal studs or an underlying surface of concrete block, you may have to purchase toggles before installing. You must allow a minimum clearance inside wall space for toggles to turn depending on toggles used. Follow toggle manufacturers instructions for installation.
2. Remove the handles and bag hook from the packaging and set to one side. Remove the main unit from the flange by lifting it out and set to one side, face down on a protected flat surface. Lift the flange out of the skirt and set to one side.
3. Measure up the wall 47-7/16" (1205mm) and mark the desired mounting location on wall stud center. Measure across 16" (406mm) and use a level to mark for the second mounting location. The skirt has two hangers set on 16" (406mm) centers for easy installation. Predrill and screw in the provided mounting screws, make sure to leave about 1/8" (3mm) of the thread exposed. Position the hangers over the scrws and hang the skirt. Make sure to check it is level before securing the mounting screws.
4. Take the flange and position it inside teh skirt. Make sure the mounting holes are towards the floor. Flange should be centered inside the skirt. Use the mounting holes to mark and predrill for the mounting screws. Screw in the top two screws, make sure you leave about 1/4" (6mm) of thread exposed for hanging the main unit.
5. Open the main unit by pulling up on the frame and remove the plastic liner dispenser. Set it to one side. Lift the unit into the flange locating the key holed mounting holes over the mounting screws. This may be easier with the assistance of a second person.
6. Secure the unit through the remaining mounting holes with the provided mounting screws. Tighten the upper mounting screws.
7. With the unit open take the liner dispenser and position it over the exposed metal frame in the center of the flange. Use teh provided key to open the liner dispenser. This will provide access to the four mounting holes. Use the provided hardware to secure the liner dispenser to the metal frame. Lock the liner dispenser and close the unit.
8. Take one of the provided handles and position it over the handle mounting studs, so that the open portion is toward the top of the unit. Use provided Allen wrench to tighten the set screws in the handles, securing it to the handle mounting studs. Repeat for the opposite handle.
9. Test the unit by opening and closing multiple times, ensuring it opens and closes smoothly. Remove protective film from the surface of the unit.
10. To install the bag hook, measure up 44" from finished floor in the desired location and mark the wall. Position the bag hook on the wall so that the top of the mounting plate is level with the 44" mark. Position the bag hook over a wall stud for optimal strength. Mark then predrill the mounting holes. Use the provided screws to secure the bag hook in position, then take the escutcheon plate and screw it over the mounting plate to cover the mounting screws.
