1. Insert the thread depth indicator (supplied) through the thread inserts found on the back of the flat

panel to make sure the inserts measure the same full depth and mark it (Figure 1).

2. Locate the correct diameter screw for the thread insert. Compare your marking to the screws (supplied).

3. If your selected screw is longer than the marking on the thread depth indicator, DO NOT USE this screw.
