INSTALLATION.
WARNING
To avoid reduction of sound output and
damage to speaker, ensure that speaker is
mounted with wires protruding from the
bottom of the speaker when viewing it from
the front.
CAUTION
Before drilling holes in ANY part of a vehicle, be
sure that both sides of the mounting surface are
clear of parts that could be damaged; such as brake
lines, fuel lines, electrical wiring or other vital
parts. Note that the two rear bracket hole locations
MUST be protected during the drilling operation.
a.
Select an appropriate mounting location which
provides both adequate support and sufficient clearance for
the speaker assembly. In addition, the mounting location
should provide maximum signaling effectiveness while
minimizing the sound reaching the vehicle’s occupants.
WARNING
To avoid reduction of sound output, ensure
that the speaker is mounted with the sound
opening facing directly in the direction
intended to warn.
NOTE
Because of the variety of vehicles and possible
mounting arrangements, installation details and
mounting bracket fabrication must be determined
by the installer.
b.
See figure 1. After speaker mounting is
completed, connect the two leads from the speaker to the
electronic siren’s speaker cable. Refer to the instruction
sheet packed with the electronic siren for additional
details.

WARNING
All effective sirens produce loud sounds
which may cause, in certain situations,
permanent hearing loss. You should take
appropriate precautions such as wearing
hearing protection.
c.
Test the system for proper operation.

BAIL BRACKET MOUNTING.
1.
General.
The supplied bracket is designed for mounting
directly on a surface which has been determined to be
suitable for speaker installation. In addition, it may be
used to install the speaker on an adapter bracket fabri-
cated by the installer.
The bracket has two sets of speaker mounting
holes. Use the outer pair of holes when mounting on a
horizontal surface. Use the inner pair of holes when
mounting on a vertical surface. When using the inner pair
of holes (vertical surface mounting), space restrictions may
require removal of the excess bracket material that
protrudes in front of the speaker.
NOTE
Because of the variety of vehicles and possible
mounting arrangements, installation details and
mounting bracket fabrication must be determined
by the installer.
a.
Select an appropriate mounting location which
provides both adequate support and sufficient clearance for
the speaker assembly. In addition , the mounting location
should provide maximum signaling effectiveness while
