Preparing the Table and Mounting the Enclosure
The preferred and recommended method for preparing the
table is to use the appropriate Extron metal routing template
and a router. See the part numbers for the templates in
appendix A, “Reference Information”.
Alternatively, you can use a paper cut-out template (see
appendix A, “Reference Information”) and a sabre saw or
keyhole saw, but this method is not recommended.
Prepare the table as follows:
CAUTION The opening in the table for the HSA should be cut
only by licensed and bonded craftspeople. Exercise
care to prevent scarring or damaging the furniture.
The routing templates for the various HSA models
are not interchangeable. If you use the wrong
template, you will cut an improperly-sized hole. If
you use a larger template than required, the cut will
result in gaps in the table surface on either side of
the enclosure.
The surfaces of the HSA enclosure have screws and
other protruding hardware that could damage fine
furniture. Do not rest the enclosure on unprotected
furniture.
The metal routing template is reusable. Do not discard
the template when the installation is complete. Save it
for installing other HSA products of the same size.
1 . Locate the desired mounting location on the tabletop or
other installation surface. Mark the location.
CAUTION Ensure that only the wooden strips on the routing
template contact the furniture. Failure to do so may
mar the furniture.
2 . Place the mounting template assembly on the table,
centered on the mounting location. Angle the template for
the optimum positioning. If necessary, use a square to
ensure that the template is properly positioned. Extron is
not responsible for improperly-positioned HSA products.
3 . Once the template assembly is positioned properly, secure
the assembly to the table with C-clamps (figure 2-2).

Wear safety glasses when operating the router.
Failure to comply can result in eye injury.
4 . Using a router with a 5/8" (or 16 mm) outside diameter
guide bushing and a 1/2" (or 12 mm or 12.7 mm) diameter
straight router bit, carefully cut the opening in the table
surface (figure 2-2).
5 . Remove the C-clamps and the routing template.
The flanged edges of the top of the surface enclosure
are sharp. To prevent personal injury, exercise
caution when the HSA is not installed in a table.
CAUTION The flanged edges of the top of the surface enclosure
are bevelled to an ultra-fine thickness of less than
0.04 (4/100)" (approximately 1 mm). These edges
are soft and can be easily nicked or bent. Exercise
caution when handling and mounting the
enclosure. Mishandling can damage the appearance
of the enclosure.
6 . Remove the plastic strips that protect the flanged edges of
the top of the surface enclosure. If a sticky residue
remains, remove it with an appropriate metal cleaning
product.
CAUTION Do not use isopropyl alcohol or other solvents to
clean the HSA. Strong solvents will ruin some
finishes.
