Freedom XC Owner’s Guide
Basic Installation Procedures
Step 3: Mounting the Unit
To mount the Freedom XC:
1. Remove the Freedom XC from its shipping container, verify
that all components are present, and record relevant product
information on “Information About Your System” in the
Owner’s Guide.
2. Select an appropriate mounting location and orientation. (See
Figure 2 below.) To meet regulatory requirements, for use in
on-land applications, the Freedom XC must be mounted in one
of the following orientations:

3. Mark the desired number of mounting holes on the wall by
placing the unit on the wall.
4. Pilot-drill the mounting holes.
5. Fasten the Freedom XC to the mounting surface. If you are
mounting the unit on a wall or bulkhead, use #12 or #14 pan-
head wood or sheet metal screws to secure it to the framing
behind the wall or bulkhead. Alternatively, use nut inserts and
¼"-20 machine screws.
NOTE:
For marine installations, only this orientation is allowed, due to
the probability of moisture finding access into the enclosure.
