Estimated time: 30m
Tools needed:
Hammer, Center punch, Locking pliers, Screwdriver, Drill
Supplies needed:
10−32 screws, Nylon washers, Hex nuts, Sealer, Stainless steel hinge pin, Stainless steel door clamps
- Install the Drip Shield
Center the drip shield above the door of the enclosure. Position it against the door opening flange. Drill one of the end holes using a 7/32 inch drill, then install a 10−32 screw through the shield and enclosure. Use the drip shield as a guide to drill the remaining holes and install the remaining screws, nylon washers, and nuts.
- Apply Sealer
Apply sealer between the drip shield and the enclosure to ensure a watertight seal.
- Install the Stainless Steel Hinge Pin
Lay the enclosure on its back. Use a hammer and center punch to start the removal of the existing steel hinge pin. Clamp locking pliers to the exposed end of the pin and strike the pliers with the hammer to remove the pin. If necessary, cut the new stainless steel hinge pin to the proper length, then start the pointed end into the hinge loops and drive it in using the pliers and hammer.
- Install Door Clamps
Remove each clamp assembly and install the stainless steel clamp assembly as shown in the installation guide.
