5. Unbolt (for wooden crates) and remove any banding fixing the mast to the shipping crate or
carton. Remove any banding fixing the mast.
6. Using a hoist, lift the Night Scan Chief from the shipping container by the mast tube at the
labeled center of gravity symbol (Figure 5-2) position. Do not lift using the RCP or lights/cam

era. Lifting from locations other than those indicated could result in equipment damage. Use
two point contact for slings to keep the load stable while moving.

5.4 Attaching to Mounting Location
Physically attach the system as follows:
1. Reference Figure 5-3 and Table 5-2 for standard mounting hole locations. These locations
will vary based on which system you are using. Measure the hole locations to confirm or use
the unit as a template to mark before drilling. Drill six Ø9/16 inch (or Ø14 mm) mounting holes
into the vehicle mounting structure in the mounting locations. There are four holes for the
base, and two holes for the saddle. Drill appropriate holes for cable installation and remove
any sharp edges that might damage the cables.
2. Mounting hardware is supplied by the customer. Stainless steel or stronger bolts are recom

mended. It is up to the installer to ensure proper thread locking methods are used to keep the
bolts from backing out due to vehicle vibration. Attach the base and saddle to the mounting
surface in six locations using 1/2 inch (or M12) bolts/washers. Torque all hardware as appro
-
priate for its material and size. The recommended installation torque value for 1/2 inch stain
-
less steel bolts is 460-530 inch-pounds (52-60 Newton-Meters). The recommended
installation torque for M12 stainless steel is 355-425 inch-pounds (40-48 Newton-Meters).
For other materials, use appropriate torque values. The two saddle bolts can be attached
later when power is available since the mast has to be partially raised to insert the bolts.
Adjust the location of the saddle if necessary so that the saddle flanges do not hang up on
the lights when the unit is raised.
