Align the rubber feet of the device over the mounting slots on the mounting bracket and
vertically push the AP to secure it. When the spring clip is popped up, push the AP
horizontally until it snaps into place (you can hear a click).
Before fixing the adjustable buckle with a screw, adjust the buckle to a proper position based on the
T-rail width.
Ensure that the AP is correctly installed on the mounting bracket and there is 200 mm space above
and around the AP for maintenance.
In a scenario with heavy vibrations, tighten the AP to the mounting bracket using M4x30 screws
with a torque of 1.4N•m. This prevents the AP falling off from due to vibrations. In normal scenarios,
you do not need to install these screws.
