Permanent Mounting
1. Determine the location of the lightbar, and the best route for the wiring. Install on the structural part of the roof or surface that has the
least amount of flex.
2. Determine the position of the mounting feet and drill the 5/16”-11/32” diameter mounting holes accordingly, if needed.
The spacing of the mounting feet from left to right is adjustable. It is suggested that the positioning of the feet be symmetrical and near
the curved edges of the roof where the roof is strongest. Ideally, the outermost holes on the feet should be used for installation.
3. Mount the lightbar, with the bolts going through the holes drilled in step 2, routing the wire as planned in step 1 (refer to diagram). See
the Wiring section of this manual for further wiring instructions. Install washers and nuts and secure the unit.
Installation & Mounting
Unpacking and Pre-Installation
Carefully remove the lightbar and place it on a flat surface. Examine the unit for transit damage and locate all parts. If damage is found or
parts are missing, contact the transit company or ECCO. Do not use damaged or broken parts. Ensure the lightbar voltage is compatible with
the planned installation.
Mounting
Before proceeding with installation, plan all wiring and cable routing. Select the mounting location for the lightbar on a flat, smooth surface
and center the unit across the width of the vehicle. The mounting location for the lightbar should be chosen such that the lightbar is level
and visibility to approaching traffic is optimized. Mounting should be such that there is no less than ½” clearance between the roof and the
lightbar at any point.
CAUTION!
When drilling into any vehicle surface, make sure that the
area is free from any electrical wires, fuel lines, vehicle
upholstery, etc. that could be damaged.
