The recorder requires an uninterrupted AC power supply and should be mounted within 6 feet of a power receptacle to accommodate the unit’s power cord. Whether you have drywall, plywood, or masonry walls, follow these simple steps to mount your M150 Time Recorder to the wall so your employees can easily access it.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Always consult with a professional contractor/carpenter and obey all local building and fire codes when installing your recorder.

Mounting Requirements

Mount your M125 Time Recorder to a sturdy wall, shelf, or other supported area. Do not use the recorder under the following conditions:

• Extremely high or low temperature [operating range: 0° to 50° C (32° to 122° F)]
• Extremely high or low humidity [operating range: 0 to 90% RH non-condensing]
• Areas of high dust concentration
• Areas with extreme vibration or when placed on an unstable or unlevel surface

Suggested Layout

See the suggested wall mounting layout for the recorder and optional card racks in the image below. Additional instructions for mounting on specific wall and shelf surfaces are outlined in the next sections.

Wood or Plywood Walls

You may use the three screws included with the recorder to mount the recorder in wood or plywood walls.

To mount the M125 time recorder on wood or plywood walls:

1. Install a screw in the wall 53" above the floor. Leave enough of the screw protruding so the recorder will hang flat against the wall through the "keyhole" on the back of the clock.
2. Hang and level the recorder.
3. Insert and tighten the screws through the lower left and right mounting holes. 

Masonry Walls

You may use plastic masonry anchors and screws available at your local hardware store to mount the recorder.

To mount the M125 time recorder on masonry walls:

1. Mark a location on the wall 53" above the floor.
2. Drill a hole with a 1/4" masonry bit and insert a plastic anchor.
3. Tighten a screw at this location, leaving enough of the screw protruding so the recorder will hang flat against the wall through the "keyhole" on the back of the clock.
4. Hang and level the recorder.
5. Mark the location of the lower left and right mounting holes. 
6. Remove the recorder. 
7. Drill holes and insert anchors in those locations.
8. Replace the recorder.
9. Insert and tighten the screws through the lower left and right mounting holes.
10. Fully tighten the "keyhole" screw.

Sheetrock or Hollow Core Walls

You may use "molly" fasteners available at your local hardware store to mount the recorder. Alternatively, you may use longer wood screws to attach the recorder to a stud behind the sheetrock, using the “keyhole” and the lower center mounting hole on the recorder.

To mount the M125 time recorder on sheetrock or hollow core walls:

1. Install a screw in the wall 53" above the floor. Leave enough of the screw protruding so the recorder will hang flat against the wall through the "keyhole" on the back of the clock.
2. Hang and level the recorder.
3. Insert and tighten the screws through the lower left and right mounting holes.
