Installation & Mounting:
Carefully examine the unit for damage before installation. If damage is found, contact the
transit company or ECCO. Do not use broken or damaged parts.
Prior to mounting, consideration should be given to cable location. The mounting location
should be chosen such that there is maximum visibility to the oncoming traffic.
Rear Mounting:
1. Insert a hex head bolt through each rear mount bracket and loosely secure the
brackets to the rear of the lightbar with the button head bolts as shown in
FIGURE 1.
2. Position the lightbar in the desired mounting location on the front of the vehicle with
the cable exit to the passenger side. Slide the rear mount brackets into place
ensuring there is at least 18" between them. Mark and drill two 1/4" holes and secure
the rear mount brackets in place on the vehicle using the included nylon insert nuts.
3. With the vehicle on a level surface, place the included cardboard cutout over the
lightbar and angle the lightbar on the mounting brackets until the top surface of the
cardboard is level as shown in FIGURE 2. This ensures the light output angle of the
safety director and worklight LEDs is optimized.
4. Tighten the button head screw in each rear mounting bracket to secure the
lightbar at that angle.
