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.

4. Install the wall plate 09 using four lag bolts 11 . Tighten all lag bolts only until they are pulled firmly against the wall plate.
CAUTION: Avoid potential personal injury or property damage! All four lag bolts 11 MUST BE firmly tightened to prevent unwanted
movement of the wall plate 09 .Ensure the wall plate is securely fastened to the wall before continuing on to the next step.
