NSTALLATION
The FT-8900R must only be installed in vehicles having a 13.8 Volt negative ground elec-
trical system. Mount the transceiver where the display, controls, and microphone are easily
accessible, using the supplied MMB-36 mounting bracket.
The transceiver may be installed in almost any location, but should not be positioned near a
heating vent nor anywhere where it might interfere with driving (either visually or mechani-
cally). Make sure to provide plenty of space on all sides of the transceiver so that air can
flow freely around the radio's case. Refer to the diagrams showing proper installation proce-
dures.

Transceiver Installation

Choose a mounting location with sufficient clearance for the transceiver. Using the mount-
ing bracket as a template for the mounting holes, use a 4.8 mm (3/16") bit to drill the
mounting holes, and secure the mounting bracket with the supplied screws, washers, and
nuts (see diagram).
Position the transceiver in the bracket so that the holes in the side are aligned with those
in the bracket, and bolt the transceiver into place using the supplied short screws and flat
washers.
