Mounting and Connection

Hold the radio with the mounting bracket in
the exact desired location. If there is no inter-
ference, remove the bracket and use it as a
template to mark the location for the mount-
ing screws.

Location

Plan location of transceiver and microphone
bracket before starting the installation.

Select a location that is convenient for operation,
yet does not  interfere with the driver or passenger.

The transceiver is usually mounted to the under-
side of the dash with the microphone bracket
beside it.

Note

The transceiver is held in the 
universal mounting bracket by
two thumbscrews which allow
for adjustment at a convenient
angle.

The bracket includes two self-
tapping screws and star wash-
ers. The mounting must be
mechanically strong, conve-
niently located.

Drill the holes and secure the bracket.

Connect the antenna cable plug to the recep-
tacle marked “ANT”  on the back of the unit.

Note

Before installing the CB radio,
visually check the vehicle’s bat-
tery connection to determine
which terminal, positive or
negative, is grounded (positive
is the larger of the two) to the
engine block (or chassis). A
negatively grounded vehicle
has its negative lead grounded
to the chassis.  

Note

In positive ground vehicles the
red wire goes to the chassis and
the black wire is connected to
the ignition switch.
