Chapter 2 - Installation Process Use Method B where the back side of the mounting location is inaccessible. Note that this method requires that the mounting plate be thick enough to accept and retain sufficient thread to provide a secure and reliable mechanical installation. To use mounting method A 1 Mark and center punch the two mounting hole locations. 2 Use a 1/4" drill bit to make the two mounting holes. 3 Use 1/4" hex bolts with flat washers and locking nuts to install the power supply. To use mounting method B: 1 Mark and center punch the two mounting hole locations. 2 Use a #7 drill bit to make the mounting holes. 3 Use a 1/4-20 tap to thread the mounting holes. 4 Place a lock washer on each bolt. 5 Insert the bolt/lock washer assemblies through the power supply holes and into the threaded mounting holes. Installing the Power Cables Follow these guidelines and other instructions closely when installing power cables. Never work on a powered (hot) system. • Completely install power cables before making connections to equipment. • Route the power cables from the general area where the power supply will be mounted. • Use a snap-in bushing (requires a 9/16" hole) if the power cable passes through a firewall or other sheet metal. • Make sure that cable routing does not interfere with other equipment or vehicle controls. • Ensure that cable routing does not invite damage to the cable.

provide a secure and reliable mechanical installation.
To use mounting method A
1
Mark and center punch the two mounting hole locations.
2
Use a 1/4” drill bit to make the two mounting holes.
3
Use 1/4” hex bolts with flat washers and locking nuts to
install the power supply.
To use mounting method B:
1
Mark and center punch the two mounting hole locations.
2
Use a #7 drill bit to make the mounting holes.
3
Use a 1/4-20 tap to thread the mounting holes.
4
Place a lock washer on each bolt.
5
Insert the bolt/lock washer assemblies through the power
supply holes and into the threaded mounting holes.
Installing the Power Cables
Follow these guidelines and other instructions closely when
installing power cables.
Completely install power cables before making connections to
equipment.
Route the power cables from the general area where the power
supply will be mounted.
Use a snap-in bushing (requires a 9/16” hole) if the power
