1. WARNING: TEST THAT POWER IS OFF AT CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE BLOCK!

2. Determine approximate location (which joists to put it between) and route cable(s) to joist cavity and fasten cable within 12" of proposed opening per NEC 334.30 leaving large enough loop to later install box after finishing floor installation.

3. Determine box location and drill four 3/4" diameter holes using template “A” for WMFB1 series or template

“B” for WMFB2 series.

Note: When installing tile,

marble or hardwood flooring, you may want to wait to cut the opening during the finished floor installation to ensure the opening in the floor does not end up in the middle of a tile or hardwood plank.

4. Cut remainder of opening using the appropriate template by connecting the edges of the holes.

5. Complete the finished floor installation up to the previously cut opening, ensuring the box will still fit into opening.
