INSTRUCTION SHEET FOR MODEL 400HMK-AC

FOR

INSTALLATION OF FEDERAL MODEL 350 VIBRATONE HORNS

IN

FEDERAL MODEL 400 SERIES LIGHTS

A.  GENERAL

 

This sheet contains instructions for the installa-

tion of a Federal Model 350 Vibratone Horn in Fed-

eral Model 400 Series Warning Lights, enabling the 

user to assemble an integrated light/sound warning 

device. The instructions in this sheet are intended to 

be used in conjunction with the Installation Instruc-

tions for Model 400 Series Lights. It is usually most 

convenient to install the horn in the light before 

attaching the light to the mounting surface. However, 

the horn can be installed later, if required.

B.  INSTALLATION

 

1.  Check the parts received against the Kit Con-

tents List, at the end of this sheet, to make sure that 

the installation kit is complete.

 

2.  Insert first a grommet and then a bushing 

into each of the two holes, in both mounting brackets, 

as shown in figure 1.

 

3.  Install the supplied gasket in the mounting 

box groove, as indicated in figure 1.
 

4.  See figure 1. Connect the horn supply wires 

to the wires in the mounting box assembly, using the 

wire nuts supplied with the horn.
 

5.  Attach the horn to the mounting box as-

sembly, using the two 8-32 x 1-5/8" oval head screws 

supplied with the horn. Tighten the screws securely.

 

6.  Remove and discard the two Phillips head 

screws from the front of the horn, as indicated in 

figure 2.
 

7.  Apply the two adhesive foam seals to the 

holes from which the screws were removed in step 

6. Ensure that there is a clear passage through the 

seals to the interior of the mounting box. These seals 

form a closed passage to minimize the accumulation 

of dust in the light assembly.

 

8.  If the light has already been installed and in 

use, disconnect the power to the unit.

 

9.  Detach the lower, metal, housing from the 

light assembly by removing the four slotted fastening 

nuts.
 

10.  Attach the mounting brackets with the grom-

mets and bushings that were installed in step 2, to 

the four exposed 8-32 x 5/8" studs, using the four 

elastic stop nuts supplied.
