Install the Studs
1. Place the control head on a towel or cloth, with the screen facing down, on a stable and level
surface.
2. Determine which size stud to use based on the thickness of your dashboard. The hardware bag
includes four 2" studs and four 2.5" studs. Studs should protrude no more than 1/4" from the
surface of the bracket.
3. Install the 4 studs (#10-24) into the threaded holes on the control head until they contact the
bottom of the hole.
4. Back out each stud 3 full revolutions to prevent it from contacting the back of the control head
housing.
5. Install a flat washer (#10) and serrated hex nut (#10-24) onto each stud. See the illustration

secured. Then, use a 3/8" wrench to tighten the assembled nut an additional 1/2 revolution.
