EAGLE - EVR-150 Installation and Operation Instructions

5. Use the two short M5x10 screws to screw the mounting brackets to the sides of the

radio.

6. Screw each M5x32 screw through the screw hole in the mounting bracket, then attach

the stopper. If your bulkhead exceeds 0.51” (13mm), the stopper can be discarded if

necessary.

7. Tighten the M5x32 screws until the radio is held firmly against the rear of the bulkhead.

Install the Microphone Bulkhead Mount

1. Hold the microphone bulkhead mount at the

chosen location and use a soft pencil to mark

the screw hole positions on the mounting

surface.

Ensure that the microphone curly cable will
comfortably reach this location BEFORE you drill.

2. Drill the two pilot screw holes where marked.
3. Use a short length Philips screwdriver and the

set of two flat screws, spring washers, plain

washers, and nuts to secure the microphone

bulkhead mount at the location site.

4. Hang the microphone on its mount.
