Anti-Attack Bushing Cap (p/n 364-5102) covers the rear 
tamper spring. It fits inside an “ O “ Ring Bushing (p/n 364-
5103) that fits inside the metal cabinet’s rear wall, anti-tamper 
spring, knock-out. Leave the O ring bushing and cap IN if the 
rear tamper is not used. If the rear tamper is used, remove the 
cap and the O ring with the edge of a flat screw driver. Discard 
the O ring. Align the cap to insert in the tamper spring, knock-out 
hole on the control cabinet back. Screw the cap by its center hole 
to the mounting surface. Place the control cabinet over it, 
allowing the rear tamper spring to fit inside the cap. The cap will 
insert in the metal cabinet’s tamper spring, knock-out hole. 
Complete securing the metal cabinet to the mounting surface. 
Position the battery with its terminals 
on the left in the control box. Secure 
the 12V 7.0Ah battery with the 
securing bracket (p/n 232-2605) and 
screws from the supplied accessories 
kit. For a 17Ah battery bracket, order 
kit 250-3617. 
during service,
