Installation Considerations
Before beginning
any
installation, follow these simple rules:
1.
Be
sure
to carefully read and understand the instructions
before
attempting
to install these
speakers.
2.
For safety,
disconnect the
negative
lead from
the
battery prior to
beginning the installation.
3.
For easier assembly, we suggest you run
all
wires prior to mounting
your speakers in place.
4.
Use high
quality connectors
for
a
reliable
installation and
to minimize
signal or power
loss.
5.
Think
before
you
drill! Be careful not to cut
or
drill into
gas tanks,
fuel
lines, brake or hydraulic lines, vacuum lines
or electrical
wiring
when
working
on any vehicle. If installation in
a boat,
take care not to
cut or
drill
through the
main
hull.
6.
Never run wires underneath
the
vehicle. Running the wires
inside
the
vehicle
or
hull
area
provides the
best
protection.
7.
Avoid
running wires over or through sharp
edges.
Use
rubber
or
plastic
grommets
to
protect any
wires routed through
metal, especially
the firewall.
Mounting
Flush Mount Option
1.
Determine
where
the
tweeter will
be
mounted.
Ensure an area
large
enough for the
tweeter
to mount evenly.
Be
sure that the
mounting
location is deep
enough for
the tweeter to fit; if mounting in
a
door,
operate
all functions
(windows,
locks,
etc.)
through their
entire
operating
range to
ensure
there is no
obstruction.
2.
Mark
the
location
for the mounting hole. Drill the
hole
with
a standard
1.75 inch
(45mm)
hole saw.
3.
With
a single center screw
secure the
inner cup from the front of the
door panel to the outer cup from back of
the door
panel.
Tighten the
screw
until balanced
pressure
is
applied
to
both
faces
of
the mounting
surface.
4.
Feed the
speaker
wires
through the cutout
Be sure to
observe
proper
polarity
when
connecting the
wires.
The
speaker's lead wires
are
indicated
with
a
WHITE
wire"+"
and a BLACK
wire
"-".
5.
Simply
snap
the tweeter into
place
and secure with
a
snap-on
trim
ring.
Removal
is
easy
if
needed.
The
protective grille on the tweeter
is
non-removable and an integral
part
of the
design.
Optional Horn Loading Mounting
1.
Determine
where the tweeter will be
mounted.
Ensure an area
large
enough for
the
speaker to
mount
evenly. Be sure that the mounting
location is
deep enough
for
the
speaker
to fit;
if
mounting in
a door,
operate all
functions
(windows,
locks,
etc.) through
their
entire
operating
range to
ensure there
is
no obstruction.
2.
Mark the location for the
mounting
hole.
3.
Cut or
use
a hole
saw to
drill a
3-5/8"
(91mm)
hole for
the flange
to
fit
4.
Once
you
have the hole
cut,
insert the flange
and
mark
the locations
for
the mounting
screws. Predrill your mounting screw holes.
5.
Assemble the horn
flange,
a-ring,
tweeter and
retaining
ring together.
Pay close attention to the alignment tab on both
the
tweeter and
flange.
These need to be lined up for
proper
tweeter orientation in the
flange.
6.
Feed the speaker
wires through
the
cutout
Be
sure to observe
proper
polarity
when connecting the wires. The speaker's lead wires are
indicated
with a WHITE
wire
"+"
and a BLACK wire"-".
7.
Secure the flange with the
included
stainless
steel
mounting hardware.
