Roof Mount Instructions
Step 1.
Step 2.
Step 3.
After selecting the location to mount the Antenna, mask the mounting location to avoid paint damage. Mark the hole
center with ink or scribed cross hairs.
Use a center punch to make a dimple on the marked location to avoid drill bits from walking across the sheet metal.
Use a Twist drill of diameter about 0.1” and drill a pilot hole. Using a 1.0” diameter sheet metal hole saw, drill the hole.
The hole saw will cut the required diameter hole with less risk of stretching and distorting the vehicle surface. Clean up
any metal shavings from the hole cutting process. (Figure 1)

Preparing the Hole
Step 1.
Step 2.
Feed the coaxial cables from the antenna through the hole from the outside surface to the inside surface and thread
the entire length of the cable through the hole.
Clean debris off the vehicle surface and then mark the desired antenna orientation by placing the antenna flat on the
vehicle surface.
