IF USING A POWER SCREWDRIVER, BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVER TIGHTEN THE SCREWS BECAUSE YOU WILL STRIP THE THREADS IN THE JUNCTION BOX AND/OR THE ELECTRICAL DEVICE. If installation is being done on an existing receptacle, remove the existing receptacle cover and discard. The mounting screws which hold the receptacle or GFI to the junction box can be removed. Press insert firmly into this assembly and it will remain there during the remaining assembly steps. Be sure gasket is held to the back of the base/cover and insert assembly using the four projections molded on the insert to locate the gasket. Mount the cover/base and insert assembly, hinge on top, and the existing receptacle to the junction box using two of the long screws provided (DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN). If mounting to an outdoor junction box or field service (FS) box, use the remaining long screws, two or four screws as required, to further secure the cover/base and insert assembly to the box. Note that holes are located in the insert for mounting to an FS box or any standard single gang junction box. For specially designed junction boxes, holes should be carefully drilled to line up with the holes in the junction box to accommodate mounting. Then install the remaining one or two short screws into the receptacle as required. A molded tab (see Figure 8) is provided to allow for padlocking the cover closed if desired (Figure 9).
