Wall Studs
1. Find the studs using one of the following
methods:
A. With a stud finder – a magnetic device which
locates nails.
OR
B. Use a hammer to tap lightly across the
mounting surface until you hear a solid
sound. This will indicate a stud location.
2. After locating the stud(s), locate the stud’s center
by probing the wall with a small nail to find the
edges of the stud. Then, place a mark halfway
between the edges. The center of any adjacent
studs should be 16" or 24" from this mark.
3. Draw a line down the center of the studs.
THE MICROWAVE MUST BE CONNECTED TO
AT LEAST ONE WALL STUD.
