IMPORTANT! The lightbar should be a minimum of 16” from any
radio antennas!
Permanent Mounting:
1.
Locate the mounting foot and locking plate included with your lightbar. If not
already present, install the plate onto the mounting foot. When properly
positioned, this plate is centered from side to side on the mounting foot.
2.
Flip the lightbar upside-down to expose the bottom of the extrusion and place
the mounting foot onto the extrusion.
3.
Rotate the mounting foot 90° counter-clockwise. Make sure that the edges of
the mounting foot swing into position under the extrusion mounting lip.
4.
Repeat this procedure for the remaining mounting foot and return the lightbar
to its right side-up position.
5.
Position the lightbar onto the vehicle roof in the desired mounting location.
One often selected location is directly above the B-pillars. This area is the
strongest part of the roof. Refer to your lightbar manual for your lightbars
cable exit location, to be sure that the lightbar is facing the proper direction.
6.
Adjust the two mounting feet outwards so that they are as close to the edge of
the roof as possible. Make sure that both mounting feet are in full contact with
the roof. Be sure that there is no less than 1/2” clearance between the roof
and the lightbar at their closest point. When the mounting feet are in their
proper position, lightly tighten the mounting foot allen head set screws.
7.
Turn the lightbar upside down and tighten all of the set screws from step 6 (2
or 4 per side) to 14-16 In. Lbs..
8.
Note that on the adjustable foot, use the hole in the pad as a guide to drill the two holes
into the mounting foot at the locations shown.
9.
Place the lightbar in its final mounting position on the vehicle, mark the mounting hole
locations off onto the mounting surface, remove the lightbar and drill the mounting holes.
10. Place the lightbar back onto the vehicle lined up with the mounting holes and secure the
mounting feet to the vehicle using the supplied hardware.
Caution:
Permanent mounting of this product will require drilling. It is absolutely
necessary to make sure that no other vehicle components could be damaged by this
process. Check both sides of the mounting surface before starting. If damage is likely,
select a different mounting location.
NOTE: Model MKAJ is an adjustable mounting foot. On this model you may loosen the screws on the rear of the foot and adjust the angle of the
lightbar. This feature can be used if the angle of the roof is not level with the road. IMPORTANT: To tighten the leveling screws you must use a
torque wrench set at 35 to 40 ft. lbs.
