Installation Guide

4. Mark the location of the top mounting hole.
5. Drill a pilot hole in the pit box wall. Follow the screw manufacturer's recommendation for
the pilot hole size.
6. For concrete-type pit boxes, it may be necessary to use a screw anchor. Choose an
anchor appropriate for a #10 pan head screw.
Caution: Do not over-tighten the mounting screws. Over-tightening the
mounting screws may break the pit module mounting tabs.
7. Start a screw into the pilot hole. Using the top hole of the pit module, set the pit module
over the screw head and slide it down so the screw is now at the top of the notch. Carefully
tighten the screw until snug. Over-tightening the mounting screw could damage the pit
module housing.
Note: If the mounting location requires a screw anchor, mark the location of the bottom
anchor and remove the pit module. Drill the required mounting hole, insert the anchor,
and re-attach the pit module.
8. Holding the pit module in the upright position, drill the second pilot hole. Use the bottom
mounting hole as a template.
