Attaching to Mounting Location

Physically attach the system as follows:
1. Reference Figure 5-3 and Table 5-3 for standard mounting hole locations. These locations
will vary based on which system you are using. Measure the hole locations to confirm or use
the unit as a template to mark before drilling. Drill six Ø9/16 inch (or Ø14 mm) mounting holes
into the vehicle mounting structure in the mounting locations. There are four holes for the
base, and two holes for the saddle. Drill appropriate holes for cable installation and remove
any sharp edges that might damage the cables.
2. Mounting hardware is supplied by the customer. Stainless steel or stronger bolts are
recommended. It is up to the installer to ensure proper thread locking methods are used to
keep the bolts from backing out due to vehicle vibration. Attach the base and saddle to the
mounting surface in six locations using 1/2 inch (or M12) bolts/washers. Torque all hardware
as appropriate for its material and size. The recommended installation torque value for 1/2
inch stainless steel bolts is 460-530 in.-lb. (52-60 Nm). The recommended installation torque
for M12 stainless steel is 355-425 in.-lb. (40-48 Nm). For other materials, use appropriate
torque values. The two saddle bolts can be attached later when power is available since the
mast has to be partially raised to insert the bolts. Adjust the location of the saddle if
necessary so that the saddle flanges do not hang up on the lights when the unit is raised.
