INSTALLATION
1. Choose appropriate bracket clamp, 11⁄2", 13⁄4"or 2", for the application.
2. Attach bracket base to enclosure at desired angle using a minimum of two (2) M6-1.0x14mm Hex
bolts and M6 lock washers. If only two (2) bolts are used, ensure there is a bolt on each side of
the round base for secure mounting.
3. Slide bracket clamp over pipe or bar at desired mounting location.
4. Hold the enclosure in place where the base ts in the open section of the clamp. Then place the
M6-1.0x50mm Hex bolt through making sure the threads are towards the front of the enclosure.
See Figure 1.
5. Tighten the M6 serrated nut onto the bolt until the bracket is tight. The nut is serrated and will lock
in place. The speaker will not rotate on the bar it is mounted on when these are fully tightened.
6. Adjust and tighten the bolts to the desired position making sure to use a minimum of two bolts.
Depending on the position of the speaker, only two (2) insertion points will be usable.
7. Attach the MTX badge to the rear recess of the enclosure with the included double stick tape.
8. Connect the speaker wires to your amplier ensuring correct polarity Grey to positive and
Black to negative.
The MUD65P includes speaker illumination. Connect the Yellow wire to +12VDC and the Black
wire to a ground location (preferably the same ground location as the amplier to avoid noise).
Current draw is 14.5mA.
