If desired, a second screw can be used in alternate boss that is
provided inside junction box. When using a second screw, ensure
watertight seal is made either by adding silicone (or equal) or using
screw with bonded rubber washer.
6.
If pre-installed mounting screw is removed from box to use
outboard mounting, seal hole in box with appropriate material, such
as silicone, to ensure a watertight seal.
WARNINGS

EPDM bonded washer, Type S, Shield Coated) or equivalent.
•
If using any other screw type, care must be taken to seal around screw
head in interior of junction box with an appropriate sealant to ensure a
watertight seal.
