Battery Compartment

When viewed from the front, the battery compartment is on the
left side of the battery box. This large compartment is pro-
tected by a padlockable door panel, and contains louvered and
screened side-wall vents for air circulation. On the inside walls
of the compartment are tie-down railings to secure the batter-
ies. Provided is a battery spacer block (shown in Figure 4)
which can be used to help insure a snug fit when smaller batter-
ies are used. The open top surface allows ample access to any
cable access holes in the cabinet installed above the battery
box.

2.2.1

Door Panel

The battery compartment is protected by a full-size removable
door panel which provides ample technician and equipment ac-
cess to the interior of the compartment. For security, at the top
of the panel are two cup-washer screws, which unlock with a 216
tool or can wrench. A padlock hasp offers additional security.
When closed and locked in position, a gasket on the inside pe-
rimeter of the door panel abuts or makes contact with the outer
perimeter of the compartment’s opening. When the hex cup-
washer screws (door lock) are tightened, the door panel and
gasket provide a seal to protect the batteries installed inside the
compartment.

2.2.2

Battery Tie-down Railings

On both the left and rear inside walls of the battery compart-
ment is a slotted, full-width, tie-down railing used to secure
batteries installed in the compartment. The provided tie-down
strap can be anchored to these railings then wrapped around
the batteries and tightened, to hold batteries in place.

2.2.3

Battery Spacer Block

The battery box is provided with a sturdy, rectangular, battery
spacer block that is designed to be used between the back wall
of the compartment and the rear of the installed batteries, to
help insure a snug and square fit of smaller batteries placed in
the compartment.

- COMPARTMENT DIVIDER WALL NOTE -

Between the left-side Battery Compartment and the right-side
Cable-Access Compartment is a secure but detachable divider
wall, to facilitate battery or cable installation, if needed.

2.3

Cable-Access Compartment

When viewed from the front, the cable-access compartment is
on the right side of the Boxer battery box.

2.3.1

L-Shaped Cable Access Panel

The cable-access compartment is secured and opened via a
large, vented, removable, L-shaped, locking access panel. This
panel, shown detached in Figure 3, is opened and locked using
a 216 tool or can wrench at the exterior cup-washer screw.
