the cardboard mounting template.

2.  Attach the wirebox to the mounting location using the included 4 mm hex bit and the two included 

wood fastener screws.

 

 

NOTE:

 Type 3R rating is only possible when washers have sealing gaskets. If mounting to alternate 

surface (such as a prefabricated pedestal), use alternate fasteners with sealing washers.

NOTE:

 The wood fastener screws are designed to support the weight of the entire Wall Connector, 

cable, and charging handle.
