ANCHOR
PLATE
Loosely secure foot and locking plate.
Strap Mounting:
1.
Locate the mounting foot, anchor plate and locking plate included with your
lightbar. If not already present, install the locking plate onto the mounting
foot. When properly positioned, this plate is centered from side-to-side on
the mounting foot.
2.
Flip the lightbar upside-down to expose the bottom of the extrusion and
place the mounting foot onto the extrusion.
3.
Rotate the mounting foot 90° in a counter-clockwise direction. Make sure
that the edges of the mounting foot swing into position under the extrusion
mounting lip. Install an anchor plate onto the extrusion in the same
manner.
4.
Repeat this procedure for the remaining mounting foot and anchor plate
and return the lightbar to its right side-up position.
5.
Position the lightbar onto the vehicle roof in the desired mounting location.
One often selected location is directly above the B-pillars. This area is the
strongest part of the roof. Refer to your lightbar manual for cable exit
location, to be sure that the lightbar is facing the proper direction.
6.
Adjust the two mounting feet outwards so that they are as close to the
edge of the roof as possible. Both mounting feet must be in full contact with
the roof. Be sure that there is no less than 1/2” clearance between roof and
lightbar at their closest point. When the mounting feet are in their proper
position, lightly tighten the locking plate allen head set screws.
7.
Return the lightbar to an upside-down position. Slide each anchor plate
outwards until it is fully engaged with its corresponding mounting foot. With
the mounting feet and anchor plates in their proper positions tighten all of
the set screws (2 or 4 per side) to 14-16 In. Lbs. Flip the lightbar right side-
up and return it to its mounting position.
8.
Open both drivers side doors. In the area directly below the mounting foot,
pull the weather-strip away from the vehicle so the area where the
mounting strap will be secured is exposed. Repeat for the other side.
9.
Insert the mounting strap through the mounting foot. Be sure that the strap
fits flush against the area where it will be secured onto the vehicle. Insert
the tension bolt through the mounting strap and anchor plate, into the
tinnerman nut. Tighten slightly with a long-shafted, Phillips screwdriver.
Repeat procedure for passenger side.
10. If your mounting strap has mounting holes in the end of the strap, use
these holes as a template to drill appropriately sized pilot holes through the
strap and into the vehicle. Repeat for passenger side of the vehicle.
11.
Firmly tighten the tension bolts to secure lightbar to vehicle.
IMPORTANT! The lightbar should be a minimum
of 16" from any radio antennas!
Permanent Mounting:
