• Cutting out the two slits makes it possible to install as shown in the gure "Field pipes in 4 directions".
(Use a metal saw to cut out the slits.)
• To install the connecting pipe to the unit in a downward direction, make a knock-out hole by penetrating the centre
area around the knock-out hole using a Φ6mm drill (4x) .
• After knocking out the knock-out hole, it is recommended to apply repair paint to the edge and the surrounding
end surfaces to prevent rusting.
• When passing electrical wiring through the knock-out holes, remove any burrs from the know-out holes and wrap
the wiring with protective tape to prevent damage.
