SANUS

MAGNETIC STUD FINDER

Designed to ﬁnd your studs and make life easier– included in hardware kit.

TWO SIMPLE STEPS

TO FINDING YOUR STUDS:

Holding it vertically, lightly move the SANUS

Magnetic Stud Finder up and down while

sliding across your wall. The magnet within

will be attracted to the screws in the stud.

Once the magnet has landed on a screw,

place a pencil mark on the wall

directly below the magnet.

You can verify this is a stud by moving the

Magnetic Stud Finder up or down to ﬁnd

a second or third screw within the wall.

Pull apart the SANUS Magnetic Stud Finder to

expose the probing pin within. Starting about

1/2inch away from the ﬁrst pencil mark insert

the probing pin into the wall every 1/8inch until

it inserts completely into the wall. Once that

happens, you know you've found one edge of

your stud. Repeat this process till you have

found the stud edges and center of the stud.
