Overview

QUICK-MOUNT

The

Quick Mount

is a quick

and flexible way to

mount the Wireless Electric Eyes to virtually any
fence pipe, cattle panel, etc. It's great for temporary
or permanent installation of electric eyes for roping.

The combination of a ball head, pivoting support
arms, and a rotating base allows numerous position-
ing adjustments as illustrated below.

The Quick Mount attaches to fences and posts using

plastic tie-wraps. Leave the mount attached for just
the night, or leave it attached for months! Additional
tie-wraps are available at most hardware and auto-
parts stores.

Loosening the

Adjustment Knob

allows movement of

the ball head and pivoting of the holding arms. Loos-
ening the knob about 1/2 turn frees the ball head to
rotate and swivel. Loosening the knob slightly more
allows the arms to pivot.

Loosening the

Base Knob

on the Quick Mount allows

rotation of the Quick Mount on its base. This rotation
can be used to orient the holding arms so they pivot in
the direction you require.

Note

: Keeping the eye “flat” as illustrated is only

required when mounting the eye

with

the antenna.

The electric eye

without

the antenna can be mounted

in any orientation required.
