3.Attach the mounting brackets to the sides of the transceiver with the adjusting screw flanges facing the back of the flat surface.

4. Tighten the adjusting screws against the back of the flat surface until the flange on the front of the transceiver is tight against the flat surface. Do not over-tighten.
