TWEETER INSTALLATION

Review the Installation Precautions section of this guide before proceeding.

Flush Mounting into Removed Panels

1.Disassemble the underside of the woofer mounting flange by removing the four screws from the bottom side of the tweeter bridge. Twist the top of the tweeter to remove the grill and gain access to the tweeter. Pull the tweeter out with the wires attached.

2.Determine the tweeter mounting location, then route the wires from the crossover to the tweeter location.

3.Mark the center point of the tweeter.

4.If using a hole saw, first drill a pilot hole, then cut out the hole using a standard 2-1/8" hole saw.

5.If not using a hole saw, use the surface mount trim ring as a template to mark the proper size hole. Cut out the hole.

6.With the tweeter assembled, route the wires through the hole and the pressure ring and slip the pressure ring over the tweeter assembly.

7.Align the tweeter so the Directed logo faces the desired direction then push the pressure ring on to the rear of the tweeter assembly until the tweeter is snugly mounted to the panel.

8.Connect the speaker wires observing the correct polarity and re-assemble the panel.

Flush Mounting into Mounted Panels

1.Remove the tweeter from the flush mount housing and insert the proper length machine bolt through the center hole of the flush mount housing and connect to the spring steel X-bracket. (See Figure 3.)

2.Connect the speaker wires observing the correct polarity.

3.Press the X-bracket portion of the assembly through the hole until its legs spring open.

4.Screw the bolt in until the tweeter housing is firmly mounted to the panel. (Make sure the arrow at the rear of the tweeter housing is pointing in the desired direction.)

5.Insert the tweeter into the housing and attach trim ring. (Refer to the trim ring information at the end of this section.)

Tweeter Surface Mounting

1.With the tweeter removed from the bridge, determine the tweeter mounting location, then route the wires from the crossover to the tweeter location.

2.Place the surface mount housing
