Remove the enclosure base mounting bracket from the pivot mounting bracket by removing the four bolts
that connect each sideplate (see
).
3
Position the pivot mounting bracket against the pole or pedestal (stub down) and mark the locations of the
center mounting lug bolt holes. Use the two middle mounting holes for this application.
4
Place the pivot mounting bracket aside.

-inch (0.635 cm) diameter holes 3-inches (7.62 cm) deep at the locations marked in
6
Start a lug bolt in the top center mounting hole and screw the bolt into the pole or pedestal approximately
two-thirds of an inch of its length.
7
Insert a lug bolt into the center bottom hole of the pivot mounting bracket and screw the bolt into the mounting
hole.
8
Secure the mounting bracket to the pole or pedestal by tightening the lug bolts.

Reattach the enclosure to the pivot mounting bracket through the base mounting bracket and torque the
mounting bracket bolts between 30 and 40 inch-pounds.
10 If the cable stub connects to an underground cable, dress the cable down the pole or pedestal to the splice case.
If the cable stub connects to an aerial cable, form a drip loop in the cable and dress it up the pole or pedestal
to the splice case.

Because of the weight and size of the enclosure, you may want to remove the dome before
mounting the enclosure. The enclosure must be mounted vertically. A shady location is also
preferred to minimize thermal stress. Refer to
for thermal load capacity
information.
While mounting the enclosure, hold the enclosure securely to prevent personal injury or damage
to the enclosure.
