2-4 Standard Configurations: Radio Mounting
Figure 2-10. Radio Installation (Remote) Using W3 Control Heads
2.2 Radio Mounting
The mounting location must be accessible and visible. Select a location that will permit routing the
RF antenna cable as directly as possible.
NOTE: For optimum radio performance, orient the mounting trunnion as shown in
Figure 2-11. For
new or existing installations, use only the XTL 5000 trunnion (kit number: HLN6861_).
CAUTION: DO NOT mount the radio on a plastic dashboard
without first reinforcing the dashboard; the weight of the radio may
crack or break the dashboard.
CAUTION: DO NOT mount the radio on a flat or concave surface
where the radio could be partially submersed in water. This is
especially important if the cab area of the vehicle is cleaned by
spraying with water. If the radio sits in water for a length of time,
moisture may seep inside the radio and damage the electronic
components.
CAUTION: DO NOT allow water to stand in recessed areas of
vertically mounted radios. Remove any moisture immediately to
prevent it from seeping down into the radio.
