Install the Antenna
Place the Magnetic Mount Dual Band Antenna on a
flat roof surface of the vehicle. Position it near as
possible to the center of the roof away from nearby
metallic objects; such as other antennas, booms, or
ladders. Route the cable, perpendicular to the center-
line of the roof, to the point where the antenna cable
enters the vehicle. Use caution to prevent damage to
the cable. Coil any excess cable in a loose loop inside
the vehicle. Secure the cable as needed.
Note:
Periodically remove the antenna and clean dust
and grit from the vehicle surface and bottom of the
antenna to reduce abrasion to the vehicle finish.

Use the hardware contained in the kit to install the VMD as follows:
Place the VMD over the selected mounting location. Allow at least a two inch
clearance beyond the rear panel for installation of cables. Mark the location of the
four mounting holes using a center punch. Alternate mounting methods may be
required in certain installations.
Protect the VMD from debris and use a 1/4-inch nut driver attached to a power
screwdriver or variable speed drill to install four (4) one-inch self-drilling screws.
DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN THE SCREWS!
Remove any debris remaining from the
drilling operation.
Connect the antenna cable to the VMD.
