Installing the Mounting Bracket
NOTICE
Pan-head screws are included, but they may not be suitable for the mounting surface. If you provide different
mounting hardware, you must not use fasteners with a countersunk head. Hardware with a countersunk head
will damage the mounting bracket.
Before you install the mounting bracket, you must select a mounting location and determine what screws and
other mounting hardware are needed for the surface.
1 Use mounting bracket as a template, verify that the mounting location has sufficient clearance to install the
device and mark the mounting holes.
NOTE: You must install the bracket with the release tab pointing down to properly secure the amplifier in the
bracket.
2 Using a 2.7 mm (
7
/
64
in.) bit or a bit appropriate for your provided hardware and mounting-surface material,
drill the pilot holes you marked in the previous step.
NOTICE
If you are mounting the device on fiberglass, when drilling the pilot holes, use a countersink bit to drill a
clearance counterbore through only the top gel-coat layer. This will help to avoid cracking in the gel-coat
layer when the screws are tightened.
3 Using the included pan-head screws or other pan-head mounting hardware, secure the bracket to the
mounting surface.
NOTICE
You must use pan-head screws, because countersunk screws will damage the bracket.
