recorder in the cutout.
Table 2-3 Mounting flush in a new panel cutout
At the appropriate location, make a square cutout in the panel measuring 12.7 ±0.060 inches
by 12.7 ±0.060 inches (322.58 ±1.52 by 322.58 ±1.52 millimeters). See Figure 2-3.
Orient the recorder case properly and slide it into the cutout from the front of the panel.
Support the recorder as shown in steps 3 and 4.
Refer to Figure 2-5. From the back of the panel, attach a mounting bracket to each side of the
recorder case using a 1/4-20 x 1/2 inch hex screw and a lockwasher for each bracket
(mounting hardware supplied with recorder). Leave the screws slightly loose so you can adjust
the brackets.
While holding the recorder firmly against the panel, slide each bracket against the back of the
panel and tighten the screws.
