Install the Pedestal
NOTE: All electrical work must be performed in accordance with the current electrical
regulations applicable in the region of use.
CAUTION: Equipment Damage
Do NOT use power tools to remove/install panel fasteners.
Power tools can apply too much torque and shear the captive nut behind
the panel, making it difficult to remove without causing damage.
Only use hand tools and do not overtighten fasteners.
1. Remove and retain the fasteners securing the front and rear panels to the pedestal
chassis.
x Fasteners may be left in the panel and should be retained in place by the
rubber washer.
2. Carefully ease the panels away from the unit to gain access to the interior.
3. Cut a neat appropriately sized hole(s) in the base of the pedestal, taking note of
the preformed areas in the base, to allow entry of the power cable and water pipe
(if required).
4. Cut a neat, appropriately sized hole(s) in the supplied rubber splash mat to match
the mounting points of the base and to allow entry of the power cable and water
pipe (if required).
5. Fit the mat over the cables and onto the four studs of the ground mounting base or
the securing points if a base was not supplied.
