Troubleshooting

Wall plug spins when inserting the screw.

Ensure the drilled hole is the correct size (5mm). If the hole is too large, the plug may not grip properly. Try a different wall plug or fill the hole before re-drilling.

Screw does not tighten properly.

Check that the screw is the correct size and type for the wall plug. Make sure the screw is long enough to adequately grip the item being mounted. If the screw is too long, it may bottom out before tightening.
