4.5.1 Installation Procedure
1. Drill or punch a clean 3/4-inch diameter hole in the panel where the antenna will be mounted. Take care
to make a smooth hole for the mounting surface.
2. Remove paint in a narrow ring around the underside of the hole. Note that metal-to-metal contact
between the vehicle and the antenna mount provides the best performance. If the installation is on a
fiberglass or other non-metallic surface, place a minimum 10-inch diameter (or square) metal plate or foil
under the mount to achieve proper performance from the antenna.

3. Using the small Allen wrench supplied with the mount, release the Allen screw within the insulator nut and
unscrew the insulator nut from the antenna mount. Ensure the ‘O’ ring is present in its recessed location
on the underside of the insulator nut.
4. From the underside of the panel, insert the antenna mount (with the center stud facing upwards) into the
3/4-inch diameter hole. From the top of the panel, screw the insulator nut, com
plete with ‘O’ ring, onto the
exposed stud. Before finally tightening the insulator nut and Allen screw, ensure the antenna mount is
centered within the 3/4-inch diameter hole and that the center stud does not contact any metal.
5. Route the cable to the receiver and secure with cable ties.
