Federal Signal Corporation Pathfinder Installation And Maintenance Instructions Manual page 9

• The holding power of magnetic mounting systems is dependent upon surface finish, surface
flatness, and thickness of the steel mounting surface.
Therefore, to promote proper magnetic mounting:
✓ The mounting surface and magnets must be kept clean, dry, and free of foreign particles that
prevent good surface contact.
✓ Ensure that the mounting surface is flat.
✓ A magnet mounting system should not be used on vehicles with vinyl tops.
✓ To prevent the light assembly from sliding on mounting surface, avoid quick acceleration and
hard stops.
Failure to follow these precautions may result in property damage, serious injury, or death.
