| POSITIONING THE
BRACKETS |
| Like
a ruler, the distance between the holes in the wood ballet bar will designate
the location of the brackets on the wall. Mark these distances off
on the wall and use a level to make perfectly vertical lines at
the marks. (Vertical lines should start at 29" from floor and
go up the wall about 15".) |
| |
| MOUNTING
CHANNELS ON WALL |
| Hold
each channel on the wall over one of the vertical lines so that
you can see the line through the holes in the channel where the
mounting screws will go. With a pencil, make little circles on the
wall through the screw holes to mark where you will drill. There
is a “nut stop” pressed into one end of each channel
and it should be at the bottom which should be 29" from the
floor. Of course walls will vary in construction and consequently
so will the type of fastener needed to mount the channel. The screws
provided will work well on most walls with wooden studs. To use
these screws, the holes in the wooden studs should be drilled slightly
smaller than the diameter of the screws to assure a snug fit. |

EXTENSION STUDS IN WOOD BAR |
| Screw
all extension studs into the wood bar clockwise by hand until
the shoulders touch the wood. An additional 1/2 turn (NO MORE) may
be necessary to straighten out the extension studs and make them
all perpendicular to the wood bar and parallel to each other.
Screw on wing nuts, washers, and square nuts exactly as shown in
illustration. |

BAR ASSEMBLY |
| Pick up bar assembly
and slide the square nut, on the end of each extension stud, into
the top slot of its corresponding channel (washers and wing nuts
are outside). Tighten the wing nuts when the bar is at your desired
height. To adjust bar, loosen the wing nut and slide it up and
down the channel, then retighten the wing nut. Grab the wood bar
at the point where the extension stud screws in and wiggle the bar
up and down when tightening and loosening the wing nut. |

DRILLING
HOLES IN WOOD BALLET BAR TO MOUNT EXTENSION STUDS
(omit
if pre-drilled wood bar is used) |
| Locate
a strong place on the wall for each bracket to be mounted and make
a vertical mark at the center of each location. Take accurate measurements
between these marks and mark the distance off on the wood bar.
First use a 3/8" drill and make all holes 7/8" deep (NO
DEEPER). Then go back to each hole with a smaller 5/16" drill
and, in the same hole, go down another 5/8" making the total
depth 1 1/2". |
| |
| It
is important that these holes are exactly parallel to each other
and perpendicular to the wood ballet bar. (A drill press makes this job
easier). |
