Introduction:

Thank you for purchasing RV Solar Connection's (RVSC) dual tilt photovoltaic mounts.
Your dual tilt mounts are quick and easy to operate and come fully assembled. Once
installed no tools or extra parts are required to tilt your modules.
RVSC Dual Tilt Mounts are manufactured from 1/8" 5052 grade aluminum and are
designed specifically for Kyocera KC series photovoltaic modules.
RVSC Dual Tilt Mounts with their slotted module mounting holes are adaptable to
several other manufacturers' photovoltaic modules.
RVSC Dual Tilt Mounts accept most modules with mounting holes between 15.38" to
24.38" apart. Modules 25" or wider must be mounted to the end rails of the solar module
to access the Pivot knobs.
RVSC Dual Tilt Mounts can be adjusted from 0° (flat) to 56° of tilt angle, which
provides sufficient tilt for most North American latitudes. Cable slots located on the
bottom rail of the dual tilt mount accept 10 gauge or 8 gauge flat tray cable. This
convenient feature makes it simple to pass cabling from one module to the next creating
a nice "clean" install.
