2.4 ATTACHING TO VEHICLE
If the Night Scan Chief is to be mounted in a well, be certain that adequate drainage is provided. A minimum
of (4) drain holes (one per corner) at least one inch in diameter is recommended. While the unit has been
designed to withstand adverse environmental conditions, it cannot be submerged.
The mounting holes provided on the unit are 9/16 inches in diameter. There are four holes in the base plate
and two holes in the RCP saddle. Studs or bolts (not provided) shall be located on the vehicle in accordance
with Figure 2-2. It is important that the surface be flat such that the saddle and base plate are in the same
plane. The areas to which the unit is mounted must be reinforced to withstand loading as shown in Figure
1-2. Attach and torque all hardware as appropriate for its material and size. It may be advantageous to
attach the four (4) mounting bolts in the base plate, complete the wiring as outlined in the following sections
and raise the unit before attaching the saddle bolts. Be certain that the saddle bolts are located in
accordance with Figure 2-2 and that the saddle is centered with respect to the RCP. Adjust the location if
necessary.
