Use an awl or icepick to punch pilot holes where you marked
the two hole locations. Now, drill two 3⁄8” diameter holes,
using the pilot holes as the centers. Locate and drill these
holes exactly as marked with the template.
Also drill four pilot holes in the four corners of the marked
area. Make sure these holes are located inside the marked
line. Then, using a utility knife, score along the inside of the
marked line. For plaster walls, score the plaster deeply,
being careful to stay inside the marked line.
Next, use a keyhole
saw or a sabersaw to
make the cutout.
Again, be extremely
careful to cut along the
inside of the marked
line.
Attaching the Inlet Mounting Plate
Reach through the inlet hole and locate the inlet tubing.
Raise it up inside the wall until you locate the inlet tubing. If
the inlet is connected from the basement, have a helper
insert the inlet tubing into the access hole until you can see
the flexible tubing. Then, pull the flexible tubing through the
inlet hole and remove the low voltage wiring from inside the
tube. If the end of the flexible tubing is not even, trim it so
that it is exactly even.
Now, remove the nail flange (used for new construction)
from the inlet mounting plate. Use pliers to bend this flange
along the scored lines until you can break it off.
Apply cement to both the
inside of the flexible tubing
and to the outside of the
mounting plate’s tube ring.
Insert the mounting plate’s
tube ring in the flexible tubing
and twisting the pieces as
you join them to spread the
cement, and align the mounting
plate in a vertical position.
