Locate and mark at least one stud on the left or right side of the centerline. It is important to use at least one wood screw mounted firmly in a stud to support the weight of the microwave. Mark two additional, evenly spaced locations for the supplied toggle bolts. 3. Drill holes in the marked locations. Where there is a stud, drill a 3/16" hole for wood screws. For holes that do not line up with a stud, drill 5/8" holes for toggle bolts. DO NOT INSTALL THE MOUNTING PLATE AT THIS TIME. 4. Remove the template from the rear wall. 5. Review the Installation Instruction book for your installation situation. %BSMFWVFMUBBMBIPKBQBSBDPOTVMUBSMB WFSTJʩOFO&TQBñPM   Locate and mark holes to align with holes in the mounting plate.
