Mounting the Micro-Edge Strobe:

IMPORTANT! The lightbar should be located a
minimum of 16" from any radio antennas!

Two  Whelen  Micro-Edge  Strobe  lights  are
included in this lighting system. The mirror mount
brackets  shown  are  purchased  seperately.  (See
parts  list)  Begin  the  mounting  procedure  by
loosely assembling the mounting bracket (Fig.1).
Position  this  partial  assembly  on  the  mirror
bracket as shown in Fig. 2. Mount the assembly to
the  mirror  bracket  using  the  U-Bolt  hardware
supplied  with  the  brackets  (Fig.  3).  Insert  the
mounting bolt on the Micro-Edge through the hole
provided  in  the  extension  flange.  Secure  as
shown in Fig. 3. Adjust the bracket assembly until
the Micro-Edge is properly aligned and tighten the
bracket  bolts  firmly.  Repeat  entire  procedure  for
the remaining door.

Wiring the Micro-Edge Strobe:

The  Micro-Edge  harness  cable  must  now  be  routed  to  the  power  supply.  The  path  the
harness  cable  follows  will  vary,  depending  upon  where  the  power  supply  has  been
mounted. If the power supply has been mounted against the rear cab wall, the path would
be:

1.

Secure harness cable to Micro-Edge mounting bracket with heavy-duty wire ties (Fig.
4) 

2.

Now have the harness cable follow the factory mirror bracket to the point where the
bracket meets the vehicle door. Secure the cable with heavy-duty wire ties.

3.

Remove the interior door panel. When you are sure that no door components will be
damaged, drill a hole in the door just below the point where the factory mirror bracket
connects to the door. Insert a rubber grommet to prevent water leakage.

4.

Insert the harness cable through the hole and route it towards the door’s hinge panel.
Drill  a  hole  in  the  hinge  panel  and  insert  the  harness  cable.

 

Be sure that the cable

does not interfere with the movement of any door or window components

 (Fig. 5).

5.

Route the cable into the cab through the kick panel and then under the rocker panel
molding toward the back of the cab. Make sure that the

 

harness cable does not bind

up when the door is opened and closed.

IMPORTANT

: The outer surfaces of this light may be cleaned with mild soap and water.

Use of any other chemicals may void product warranty. Do not use a pressure washer.
