INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
A. Installation Using Standard Brackets
1. Determine locations of mounting brackets on side
of vehicle. See FIG. 1A , FIG 1B, and FIG 1C.
2. The left and right brackets must be mounted be-
hind where the arms are attached. (See FIG. 1D)
The outside edge of the bracket must be aligned
with, but not protruding beyond, the edge of back
of the aluminum case. See FIG. 1A for the 8'-13'
models. See FIG. 1B for the 15' models, and FIG.
1C for the 16' models, which use 4 brackets evenly
spaced.
3. Mark the wall bracket position. Using a bracket as
a template, mark the hole locations. Pre-drill holes
using a 5/16" drill bit (use 7/32" drill bit if drilling
through steel). Install top brackets with 1/4-20 X
2"L carriage bolts, nuts and washers provided.
4. If mounting area sub-structure is not solid, we
recommend using a backing plate (not provided)
inside the vehicle. See FIG. 2.
5. After the wall brackets are installed, using a
pencil, mark location of edges of brackets on the
wall. Draw the marks approximately 2" below the
bracket. These marks will later help you identify
the location of the brackets for installation of the
8-18 X .38" self-drilling screws.
