net, regardless of the type of knock-out and regardless of the order of the
mounting steps. All knock-outs should be knocked out from the inside of
the cabinet, except for the small 0.575" knock-outs (which should be
knocked out from the outside of the cabinet) or the concentric knock-outs.

of the equipment cabinet and side car cabinet that mount above
the battery box.

Small mounting holes  (0.344" diameter) are provided in the
bottom flanges of the battery box, for use with anchor bolts
when mounting on a concrete pad.
