INSTALL SUBWOOFER INTO ENCLOSURE

STEP 1 - WIRING THE SUBWOOFER*
Set your subwoofer enclosure on a flat surface as shown in Figure 4-1. *If you have a 2018.5 Turbo S
or 2019 RZR model, please see the modification required on the next page BEFORE completing the
subwoofer installation into the enclosure.
Figure 4-1
If your subwoofer was not pre-installed, you will wire the woofer
with the dual voice coils to yield a 2 ohm load (indicated with the Ω
symbol) as pictured in Figure 4-2.
We have prepared the internal harness so you cannot make
a mistake. Wiring the subwoofer for 2 ohms (2Ω) will allow the
subwoofer to develop maximum power from the amplifier by perfectly
balancing the impedance with the amplifier's power output.
Use the connection where two wires will insert into one voice coil
connector and then route the other end of the wire to opposite
connector, shown in Figure 4-3 and Figure 4-4.
NOTE – Wiring code is solid white connects to the (+) Positive/Red
speaker terminal and White/Black Stripe connects to the (-) Negative/
Black speaker terminal. To open the speaker terminals push down on
the connector to open, push the soldered ends of the wires through
the hole and release the connector to establish a good electrical
connection.
STEP 2 – SECURE THE SUBWOOFER TO THE ENCLOSURE
Due to the shape of the enclosure it can be very difficult to balance
the subwoofer enclosure and screw in the speaker for one person
shown in Figure 4-5.
To avoid damage to the subwoofer, consider having a friend hold the
enclosure steady while you mount the subwoofer using hand tools
and the screws provided.
It is not advised to use a powered screw gun for this step.
Put the subwoofer enclosure on its back
and extend the harness from inside
the enclosure as shown. This will allow
you to easily connect the wiring to the
subwoofer's push-connector terminals.
