area in normal traffic patterns.
•
Do not position the bracket above, near, or
relative to, the driver's position as to interfere
with normal driving operations.
•
Mount the bracket and/or printer away from the

Assembling the Bracket
1. Align the rubber feet under the mounting plate
so that the ends of the mounting plate fit into
the recesses of the rubber feet and the side
with the rubber bosses are closest to the
edge, facing up (Figure 4).
2. Attach the rubber feet to the mounting plate
(Figure 5).
3. Place the foot caps over the mounting plate
so that the recesses are facing up (Figure 6).
The foot caps attach to the bracket when the
