Setup (Installation)

1. Tools Required

• Pencil
• Measuring Tape
• Spirit Level
• Drill with appropriate drill bits (for wood, concrete, or brick)
• Screwdriver (Phillips or flathead, depending on screw type)

2. Choosing a Location

Select a sturdy wall location that can safely support the weight of the mounts and your appliance. Ensure there is adequate space around the appliance for ventilation as recommended by its manufacturer. Avoid mounting above heat sources or in areas with excessive moisture.

3. Mounting Steps

1. Measure and Mark: Determine the desired height and width for your appliance. Place one bracket against the wall and mark the drill holes with a pencil. Ensure the marks are level using a spirit level. Repeat for the second bracket, ensuring it is parallel and at the correct distance from the first to support your appliance.
2. Drill Holes: Drill holes at the marked positions using the appropriate drill bit for your wall type. Insert wall plugs if necessary.
3. Attach Brackets: Securely fasten each bracket to the wall using the provided screws. Ensure they are tightened firmly but do not overtighten.
4. Verify Stability: Gently pull on the installed brackets to confirm they are securely attached to the wall before placing any appliance on them.

Operating (Usage)

Once the wall mounts are securely installed, carefully place your microwave oven or other compatible appliance onto the brackets. Ensure the appliance is centered and stable on both mounts. Do not slide the appliance forcefully, as this may damage the mounts or the appliance. Always adhere to the appliance manufacturer's guidelines regarding ventilation and placement.

Important: Never exceed the maximum weight capacity of 50 kg for these mounts.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Clean the mounts with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish.
• Periodic Checks: Regularly inspect the mounts and all fastening points (screws, wall plugs) for any signs of loosening or damage. Tighten any loose screws immediately.
• Damage: If any part of the mount appears damaged, discontinue use and replace the product.

Troubleshooting

• Mounts are not level: Re-measure and adjust the position of the brackets before drilling. Use a spirit level during installation.
• Appliance feels unstable: Ensure all mounting screws are fully tightened. Verify that the wall structure is sound and capable of supporting the load. Re-check the appliance's placement on the mounts.
• Screws are loose: Tighten all screws. If screws repeatedly loosen, consider using stronger wall plugs or consulting a professional for wall reinforcement.
