The wall hole template shall be close to the wall, and Φ 7 holes shall be drilled on the wall according to the 6 positions marked on the wall hole template with an impact drill. As shown in FigureA-1 (wall hole form work)
After the wall hole corresponding to the wall is drilled, remove the wall hole formwork, and insert the corresponding holes of the fixing plate (Figure A-2) and L-shaped fixing strip (Figure A-3) into the expansion rubber plug and lock them with screws for fastening. Note that the concave surface of the fixed plate faces the installer, and the “UP” double arrow symbol in the concave surface of the fixed plate should be placed upward (as shown in Figure A-2)
Pass the cable through the waterproof connector, and lock it to the terminal according to the symbols on the junction box in order to ensure that the connection among the tension disc, the cable and the waterproof connector is completely fastened. As shown in Figure A-4 (power cables).
Attention :
a. Please select the appropriate terminal crimper for crimping.
b. Please equip with a wire of not less than l0awg (U007K)/9awg(U09K6),
194°F or 221 °F copper wire.
c. Torque value: 1.8N.m
After locking the fixed plate and L-shaped fixing strip with self tapping
screws, hang the charger connected with the line onto the fixed plate and
L-shaped fixing strip, lock the charger and the fixing strip from the side of
the charger with flat head anti-theft screw Φ 4, and finally lock the charger
and L-shaped fixing strip from the bottom of the charger with pan head anti-
theft screw Φ 4. As shown in Figure A-5 (wall mounted general assembly
