8.9OPTIONAL MMB-84 FLUSH MOUNT INSTALLATION
1.Make a rectangular template for the flush mount measuring 2.9” H x 8.1” W (72 x 205 mm).
2.Use the template to mark the location where the rectangular hole is to be cut. Confirm the space behind the dash or panel is deep enough to accom- modate the transceiver (at least 6 inches deep).
There should be at least 1/2 inch between the transceiver’s heatsink and any wiring, cables or structures.
3.Cut out the rectangular hole and insert the transceiver.
4.Fasten the brackets to the sides of the transceiver with the lock washer nut combination; so that the mounting screw base faces the mounting surface (see Figure 2).
5.Turn the adjusting screw to adjust the tension so that the transceiver is tight against the mounting surface.
