Using the 4 mm drill bit provided, create four pilot holes at
least 10 mm deeper than screws provided, or about 40 mm
deep. If the material is unusually hard you may need to use
a rotary impact drill rather than a standard drill to make the
holes. Call a handy man if needed. Put a small amount of
caulk or silicone into each hole.
Place one steel washer onto each of the four screws provided.
Attach the correct socket bit for the screw onto a hand driver or
an electric drill. Now carefully tighten the screws all the way into
the wall. Do not over-tighten or over-torque the screws or you
may break off the screws or strip out the holes.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE: Your new Mail Boss mailbox is designed to withstand the elements,
to help preserve the UV and weather coating apply a clear or light colored car wax to the exterior of
the box 2-3 times per year. If your mailbox finish is damaged exposing the metal, we recommend prompt
application of a matching protective paint such as Rust-Oleum to prevent rusting. To preserve your lock
we recommend the application of “Tri-Flow” lubricant to the interior of the lock twice a year. If you live in
an area where dust, debris or salt spray is prevalent, you may consider purchasing a lock dust cover
from mailboss.com for added protection.

OPTIONAL: If you’re installing this box in a location without
overhead weather protection, you may wish to install the rain
guard weather shield on the top of your box for added
moisture protection. Simply remove the adhesive backing
from the rain guard and install upon the front of the upper
ledge of the box, with the lip overhanging the upper door.
