Disassembly and Removal from Wall

compartment assembly from the outer enclosure by tilting the
compartment assembly out and lifting it up to clear the lower edge of
the opening in the outer enclosure. Remove the outer enclosure
from the wall by removing the screws that secure it to the wall.

Installing Arrow Lock Guard on USPS Arrow Lock

Lay the compartment assembly face down on a table. Remove the
top two screws from the USPS Arrow Lock as shown in Illustration 1.
Discard these screws. Remove the lock from the lock-mounting
bracket.

Stand the compartment assembly upright on a table. Open the door
that covers the USPS Arrow Lock. Using the drill motor and the 1/4”
diameter drill bit, drill out the two tapped holes from which the lock
mounting screws were removed.

Insert the two #10-32x1-1/4” pan head screws provided into the holes
from the front of the bracket, reinstall the lock at the rear of the
bracket, add the lock guard provided as shown in Illustration 2, and
attach the #10-32 lock nuts provided to the back of the screws.
Holding the #10-32 locknuts with the 3/8” wrench, tighten the Arrow
lock screws with the Phillips screwdriver.
