Attach two mounting ears to the pedestal using (8)
1/2-inch hex head screws, (8) flat washers, and (8)
lock washers (four sets per side).

Step 3:
To install the wall mounting fixture
Attach the base platform to the wall or H-frame as follows:
Note:
Clearfield recommends using two people to perform this task: One to hold the base platform in position
against the wall or H-frame, and one to install the mounting hardware.
a.
For wall-mount installations, determine how high above ground to elevate the cabinet. Mark the identified
height on the wall. For H-frame installations, mark the higher of the three bottom beams at 2-inches above
the center line.
Note:
T
he identified height is where the top surface of the base platform will sit. This height must be at least 18
inches above the ground.
b.
Position the base platform against the wall or frame, with its top edge at the marked height. If necessary,
arrange the cable conduits underneath the platform into the appropriate entry ducts.
c.
Verify that the base platform is level.
d.
While holding the platform in position, drill (6) 3/8-inch pilot holes into the wall or frame through the holes in
the mounting ears (three holes per side).
e.
Install the appropriate mounting hardware into the pilot holes to attach the bracket to the wall or frame. For
example, use 1/2x 3-inch lag screws and 1/2-inch flat washers for wood walls or H-frames, or user-supplied
concrete anchors for brick or stone walls.
Note:
Clearfield recommends using cold-shrink tubing on the conduit entry ducts to seal the conduit entry.
If any of the individual conduit entry ducts are not used, remove and replace the duct plates with blank
plates from the installation kit.
Verify that the base platform is level, and then tighten all hardware to secure the assembly in place.
Perform the following task only after the cabinet is onsite and ready to install on the mounting fixture.
