Mounting Wall Switch to Side of Mantel
7.
Create three openings in the mantel wall according to Tem-
plate 2, page 45. This is best done by making a pattern to work
with on the mantel. Carefully cut page 45/46 from manual and
tape paper template vertically onto mantel wall at preferred
location. Pierce the paper at the centers of the 2 holes with a
nail or sharp pencil, leaving a mark on the wall. Do the same
at centers of the four circles near the corners of the rectangle.

Drill 1/8" pilot holes at each mark for top and bottom screw
holes. Drill 3/8" holes at each mark for centers of four circles
near corners of rectangle.
10. Using a straight edge and pencil, connect the outer edges of the 4
holes for the rectangle (see Figure 10, page 10). This will give
you cutting lines for the rectangle you will cut in the mantel wall.
11. Using a keyhole saw, hack saw blade, drill, file, or other suit-
able tool, carefully cut out the rectangular opening.
Note:
The
corners of the rectangle may be round.
IMPORTANT:
Do not
exceed the size of the rectangle on template.

ing from inside mantel (see Figure 13).
