INSTALLATION
Safety and convenience are the primary consideration for mounting any piece of mobile equipment. All controls must
readily available to the operator without interfering with the movements necessary for save operation of the vehicle.
Be sure all cables are clear of the rake, clutch and accelerator. Also, thought must be given to the convenience and
comfort of passengers (for example, will the< have adeguate leg room?).
Another extremely important requirement is the ease of installation and removal for those occasions when you might
want to remove the unit for service and maintenance. Mount the transceiver so it can be slipped in and out easily.
