3300 Installation Instructions
INSTALLATION OF RADAR ANTENNA
Large L and Small L Brackets may be used in combination.
The Small L Brackets are fastened to the Large L Bracket using
the #10-32 x 1/2" bolts, #10-32 nuts and lock washers.
To fasten the Large L or Small L Brackets to your vehicle, mark
the supporting structure through the appropriate holes in the
brackets, then drill the holes in the supporting structure with a
13/64" drill bit. Attach the bracket(s) to the supporting structure
using two bolts (#10-32 x 1-1/4") and corresponding nuts, flat
washers, and lock washers. You may also use 2 #6 sheet metal
screws. Because rough road surfaces can cause excessive
vibration or bouncing, be certain to fasten the bracket(s)
securely to your vehicle.
Horizontal Or Vertical Mounting Of Antenna
The antenna can be attached to the vehicle in a horizontal or
vertical position, or at any angle between these two points.
Select the position that allows you to fasten the antenna to
your vehicle in the most secure manner.

INSTALLATION OF RADAR ANTENNA
Best mounting angle for optimum detection of all types of radar guns.
Radar antenna mounted in horizontal position.
Horizontal Mounting
When mounting the antenna in a horizontal position (or on an angle
between), remember to keep the ANTENNA window as close to
perpendicular as possible to the road surface (ANTENNA window
should not be angled up toward the sky or down toward the road
surface).
Mounting Vertical (with 45º Reflector)
For vehicles that do not have sufficient clearance behind the grille
(about 5") to mount the antenna in a horizontal position, the 45º
Reflector should be used.
The 45º Reflector is attached to the antenna with two screws (#6 x 3/4")
on the side of the antenna housing marked ANTENNA. Slide the
screws through the corner holes on the flange of the antenna housing
and then tighten into the metal reflector (do not over tighten).
