If installing outdoors, this product is intended to be installed in countertops that are under covered

Only licensed, insured, and bonded electrical contractors should install the OB-2-CT-SP.

When in use, the cover should be closed in the “SAFETY” position.

•
Lew Electric accepts no responsibility if the above conditions are not followed.
1. Before installation, a licensed, insured and bonded electrical contractor must install a 20 AMP
receptacle in the cabinet space below the countertop where the OB-2-CT-SP will be installed.
2. Have a professional countertop installation company cut a hole in the countertop that
measures 5 3/8 inches by 4 3/4 inches.
3. Place the OB-2-CT-SP, cord first, inside the hole so that the bottom of the cover is resting on
the top of the countertop.
4. From underneath the countertop, place the square metal ring (with the lip side facing up)
through the cord and up into the bottom of the OB-2-CT-SP box. The lip should fit inside the
hole. Align the screw holes in the box with the screw holes on the ring.
5. Put the four stainless screws through the counter sunk holes in the top of the OB-2-CT-SP
cover and start the screws into each of the four threaded holes in the ring. DO NOT tighten
more then a quarter of the length of each screw. This step is easiest to accomplish with the help
of another person. One person should hold the metal ring tight to the underside of the
countertop with holes aligned while the other person begins screwing each screw a few turns.
