1. 

At the switch panel location(s), use a 2 1/4” hole saw and cut one hole for each switch.  The center of 
each hole is 1 1/2” apart for switches mounted in the same panel. 

2.  Each switch assembly is labeled.  Carefully push the connector and wires through the switch panel 

then push the switch into the faceplate until the locking tabs click into place behind the faceplate. 

  The momentary switch is the “

Patio

” switch; 

  The latching switch w/o light is the “

Wind Speed

” switch; 

  The latching switch w/ light is the “

Mode

” switch. 

CAUTION 

E

NSURE THAT THE SWITCH LABELS MATCH THE FACEPLATE LABELS FOR THE SWITCH IDENTIFICATION 

AND ORIENTATION

HE SQUARE LENS ON THE SWITCH MUST BE AT THE BOTTOM

NOTE:  If it is necessary to remove the switch from the panel, press and hold the locking tabs 

on the switch then carefully work the switch out of the panel.  Do not try to force the 
switch, it is possible to break the locking tabs. 

3. 

After all switches are mounted into the faceplate(s), carefully push the connectors, wires and switches 
into the mounting holes drilled in step 1. 

4. 

Hold the faceplate(s) in position and secure to the mounting surface using four (4) #6 x 1/2 screws.   

Tip:  Drilling a small pilot hole for the screws will reduce the chance of splitting or stripping out the 
hole with the screws.
