Cutting Plastic Faceplates
Some faceplates will need to be cut if removing side
sections of dimmers and not using a multigang
faceplate.
To cut faceplates:
1.
Position faceplate face down on soft cloth.
2.
Press firmly and score groove on back of
faceplate with razor-sharp knife. Use vertical
side of groove to keep knife on straight course
(see Figure H.)
3.
Bend section back and forth several times to
break it off. Do not use pliers.
4.
Smooth edges by placing fine-grained sandpaper
on flat surface and rubbing edge of faceplate
over it a few times. Hold faceplate steady as you
rub to keep edge true.
