choose a location that has at least two inches of depth to 
accommodate the control head and cables.  Consider wire routing 
and access to connections when selecting location as well. 
 

• 

Using the switch panel unit itself as a template, mark the location of the two mounting 
holes to be drilled. Be sure to check for obstructions behind the mounting hole locations.  

 

• 

Drill the two mounting holes and install the control using two screws or other suitable 
fastener (not provided).

The amplifier box should be mounted through its flanges using four #8 screws (not included) 
or other suitable fastener. 

 

• 

Using the amplifier as a template, mark the 
location of the four mounting holes to be 
drilled. Be sure to check for obstructions 
behind the mounting hole locations.  

 

• 

Drill the four mounting holes and secure 
the amplifier box using appropriate 
hardware (not supplied).
