for the mounting brackets.
Using the assembled lightbar and
brackets as a template, mark the
four mounting hole positions on
a suitable surface/location on
the aircraft. Using a 1/4" drill bit,
carefully drill the four holes.
Using hardware E, attach the
two mounting brackets to the
Lightbar.

Step Six
Tighten Hardware
Using hardware F, secure
the lightbar to the aircraft.
If required, use the backing
plates on the underside of the
mounting surface for additional
reinforcement (these provide
additional support to prevent the
bolts from pulling through the
surface under vibration).
When finished, tighten all
hardware.
Connect cable to the bottom of
the lightbar. Using hardware G,
attach the cable to the lightbar.
Be careful not to make any sharp
turns or bends.
Note: There are two size options
for the Adel clamps.
