Mounting the Radar Speed Sign to a Round Pole 

 

 
The pivot mounting bracket comes standard with the TC-800 & TC-1100 models. The sign 
housing bracket is built directly into the radar speed sign housing so only the pole side bracket 
requires installation

The installation hardware kit for the sign includes the pole side bracket 

and the sign installation hardware (bolts, screws, nuts, washers, cover plates) 

 
 
 
 
 

 

• 

Attach the pole side bracket to the pole. Depending on what type of pole you are 
using, bolts or banding can be used. 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 

 

• 

When you are ready to hang the sign onto the pole, place 

the ¼”x 4” bolt (supplied) 

into the top hole of the housing bracket.

 

 

IMPORTANT NOTE: DO NOT attach the YOUR SPEED 
faceplate or the batteries to the radar speed sign until it 
is mounted on the pole.  

It will be much easier to mount 

the radar sign without additional weight of the batteries.

 

 

• 

With 

two 

people, lift the sign and place the bolt into the U-

slot on the pole bracket. This will hold the sign so that the 
side bolts (supplied) can be installed.  
 

 

 
 

 

• 

Install a hex head bolt (1/4”  x 5/8” length) > lock washer > flat washer 
(supplied) into each of the two holes on both sides of bracket.

 

 

• 

Once the sign is securely installed and the angle of the sign is adjusted to  
accommodate road conditions (uphill or downhill), the 4” bolt from the top hole 
can be removed.  

• 

Tighten the 4 bolts, 2 bolts each side, to secure the sign.
