the mounting screw holes.

2. In the marked positions, drill holes slightly smaller than the supplied screws.

3. Attach the mounting bracket to the mounting location using the supplied screws and lock washers.

4. Attach the scanner to the mounting bracket using the supplied mounting knobs.

electronics store).
