8. Service body mounting plates – front legs.
Measure the distance of the crossbar and subtract 7 inches. This is the recommended maximum
distance between mounting plates. Keep the mounts as far apart as possible for strength and rigidity.
Center the mounting plates evenly side to side and flush with the top of the service body.
Before drilling examine the service body to make sure that are not any wires, hinges, etc. that may cause
problems with mounting the plates to and that there is enough room to add the flat backing plate on the
inside for maximum mounting strength.
Adjust position if needed.
Mark the centers of the holes and drill 3/8” holes through the service body.
Mount the front plate and tighten with (3) 3/8”-16 x 1-1/4”hex bolts, flat backing plate, (3) 3/8” dia split
lock washers and (3) 3/8”-16 nuts. If the wall thickness is thinner, shorter bolts can be used (not
provided).
Repeat for other side.
