Basic Installation Procedures

Step 3: Mounting the Unit

To mount the Freedom HF:

1.Remove the Freedom HF from its shipping container, verify that all components are present, and record relevant product information on “Information About Your System” in the Owner’s Guide.

2.Select an appropriate mounting location and orientation. (See Figure 2 below.) To meet regulatory requirements, for use in on-land applications, the Freedom HF must be mounted in one of the following orientations:

•Under a horizontal surface (see 1)

•In a horizontal position on a vertical surface (see 2)

NOTE: For marine installations, only this orientation is allowed, due to the probability of moisture finding access into the enclosure.

3.Look for the mounting template and unfold. Tape it to the mounting surface and pilot-drill the desired number of mounting holes. Remove the template.

4.Fasten the Freedom HF to the mounting surface. If you are mounting the unit on a wall or bulkhead, use #12 or #14 pan-head wood or sheet metal screws to secure it to the framing behind the wall or bulkhead.

Alternatively, use nut inserts and 1/4-20 machine screws.
