5.  Using either the dimension print or by measuring the distance between the center lines of the 2 

lower  bracket slots, transcribe this dimension onto the wall. Note: The bottom edge of the en-
closure should be a minimum of 12” (305 mm.) from the fl oor in case fl ooding of the pump room 
occurs.

6.  Drill and put 2 anchors into the wall for the 2 lower bracket slot mounts.

9.  Install bolts and washers in 2 lower anchors, leaving a gap between the washer and wall.
10.    Lift the controller and place the bottom mounting slots down onto the 2 lower anchor bolts. Do       

not tighten bolts.

11.  Align holes in upper mounting ears and install 2 bolts and washers in anchors.
12.  Shim anchors as necessary to ensure rear of enclosure is vertically level and enclosure is not

Floor/Base Plate Mount— 
Procedure–
MOUNTING LEGS (OPTIONAL - IF ORDERED)
Procedure—
1.  Unpack legs and mounting hardware.
2.  Inspect legs for damage.
3.  Gently lay the controller on its back, using protection so the paint is not damaged.  It is best to lay 

the controller in a location that is out of the way from actual mounting location.

4.  Attach each leg  to the bottom of the enclosure using the provided hardware . Tighten nuts se-

curely.

5.  After legs are securely attached, stand the controller up on its legs for mounting. Each leg  has 3 

holes on the bottom for anchoring to the fl oor or base plate.

Note—Consult the appropriate job plans to determine controller mounting location.
Refer to the controller dimension print for necessary mounting dimensions.

The controller is fl oor/base plate mounted by using the 3 pre-drilled holes in each leg. The holes 

are dimensionally on the same center line for ease in mounting.
6.  Using either the dimension print or by measuring distance between the center lines of the holes 

on one leg, transcribe these dimensions onto the fl oor/base plate.

7.  Drill 3 holes in fl oor/base plate for anchoring the leg.
8.  Mark location of holes for opposite leg and drill 3 more holes.
9.  Secure controller to fl oor/base plate with bolts and washers and tighten.
10.  Check to be sure enclosure door opens freely and that enclosure is level.

MAKING ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Important Precautions—
