applicable standards and intended use. In high use and abuse areas, a
solid mounting surface or additional reinforcement may be required
behind the box.
Punch out holes in box in areas indicated on the front view drawing by the
notation “mounting screw punch outs.”
Determine stud location in mounting area. Drill holes in mounting surface
and into mounting stud.
Insert appropriate fastener through box and into mounting surface and
tighten securely. For mounting directly into a stud or solid wall, the
recommended fastener is a #8-32 x 1” wood screw. For mounting into
a hollow wall or surface, the recommended fastener is a #8-32 x 1”
toggle bolt.
