1. Proper installation combined with operator training in the use, care, and maintenance of emergency warning devices are essential to ensure
the safety of you and those you are seeking to protect.
2. Exercise caution when working with live electrical connections.
3. This product must be properly grounded. Inadequate grounding and/or shorting of electrical connections can cause high current arcing,
which can cause personal injury and/or severe vehicle damage, including fire.
4. Proper placement and installation are vital to the performance of this warning device. Install this product so that output performance of the
system is maximized and the controls are placed within convenient reach of the operator so that s/he can operate the system without losing
eye contact with the roadway.
5. Do not install this product or route any wires in the deployment area of an air bag. Equipment mounted or located in an air bag deployment
area may reduce the effectiveness of the air bag or become a projectile that could cause serious personal injury or death. Refer to the
vehicle owner's manual for the air bag deployment area. It is the responsibility of the user/operator to determine a suitable mounting location
ensuring the safety of all passengers inside the vehicle particularly avoiding areas of potential head impact.
6. It is the responsibility of the vehicle operator to ensure during use that all features of this product work correctly. In use, the vehicle operator
should ensure the projection of the warning signal is not blocked by vehicle components (i.e., open trunks or compartment doors), people,
vehicles or other obstructions.
7. The use of this or any other warning device does not ensure all drivers can or will observe or react to a warning signal. Never take the right-
of-way for granted. It is your responsibility to be sure you can proceed safely before entering an intersection, driving against traffic, respond-
ing at a high rate of speed, or walking on or around traffic lanes.

Installation & Mounting:
Carefully remove the beacon and place it on a flat surface. Examine the unit
for transit damage, broken lenses, etc. If damage is found, contact the transit
company or distributor. Do not use damaged or broken parts.
Permanent Mounting:
Caution: When drilling into any vehicle surface, make sure the area is free
from any electrical wires, fuel lines, vehicle upholstery, etc. that could be
damaged
Position the beacon in the desired mounting location. Using the base flange as
a template, mark the mounting hole locations. Drill three 13/64" mounting holes.
Drill a hole for power wire routing as desired. The use of a grommet is recom-
mended for wires passing through compartment walls. Secure the beacon in
place using the included #10 hardware.
Pipe Mounting:
Remove the surface mount flange and four screws from the beacon's base.
Route the wires through the 1/2" NPT thread pipe and thread the beacon on until
secured.

Wiring Instructions:
Important! This unit is a safety device, and it must be connected to its own
separate, fused power point to assure its continued operation should any
other electrical accessory fail.
Wiring for single and dual color beacons are as shown in FIGURE 1. All wiring
should be a minimum of 20 AWG. The positive line must have a 3 amp fuse,
as shown. A switch may be used to control the on/off function. Route the
ground wire directly back to negative battery terminal. Pack dielectric grease,
such as Dow Corning 4, around each electric connection exposed to moisture
or the ambient environment.
Important!
Disable power before wiring the beacon.
