Wolo 7900 SERIES Lookout - Manual (Page 2)

2. Make sure the selected location of
the light bar will allow the stainless
steel straps to attach to the vehicle
window ledge on both the driver's
and passenger sides. See fig 1.
3. A 1/2’’ hole will need to be drilled in the roof to route both cables into the interior of the vehicle. Mark the
desired hole location; remove the light bar from the roof and drill the hole. The installer must lower the
headliner to carefully inspect selected location to ensure that there are no components, wires and or any
other vehicle part that could be damaged before drilling. WARNING: The roof has support members that
span across from the driver's and passenger side of the vehicle. NEVER drill into a support member! It
will be necessary to relocate cable's access hole to not come into contact with support member.
4. IMPORTANT: Protect the vehicle's interior headliner from damage that could be caused when drilling
the access hole for the light bar's power cable. Always allow a minimum distance of 6“ to 8” between
the roof and headliner by lowering the headliner before drilling the access hole.
5. IMPORTANT: Always de-burr the access hole by using a round file to ensure there are no sharp edges.
6. Supplied with the light bar is a rubber grommet; insert the grommet into the
access hole.
7. Position the light bar back onto the roof of the vehicle. There are two
adjustable brackets located on the bottom of the light bar. The installer will need to adjust the location
of the two brackets, each having two-(2) rubber pads, to be close to the
edge of the roof. IMPORTANT: Always make sure that each of the
protective rubber pads are in full contact with the roof. To adjust each
bracket, loosen the four 9.5mm bolts, slide the bracket into position, and
tighten the bolts securely. Repeat the same procedure for the bracket
on the other end of the light bar.
8. Remove the tension adjustment bolts from brackets located on the
bottom of the light bar. See fig. 4.
9. Open the vehicle’s door and determine the location that the stainless steel strap will clamp to the
windows ledge. You may need to move the rubber weather-strip away from the vehicle. Only remove
enough weather-strip so that the area where the stainless steel strap will be secured to the vehicle is
exposed. Repeat the procedure for other side of vehicle.
10. Remove the blue protective film covering the stainless steel
straps. Place one of the stainless steel straps into position on the
window ledge so the installer can determine which holes in the
stainless steel strap are best to attach the “L” bracket using the two
carriage bolts, washers and nuts. Insert the tension adjustment bolt
through the strap’s “L” bracket and thread bolt into the light bar's
bracket, hand tighten. IMPORTANT: The “L” bracket can be
repositioned for proper installation by simply removing the screws
securing it to the stainless steel strap. Reposition and secure the “L”
bracket in preferred location using the screws, lock washers and nuts. Repeat the
procedure for other side of vehicle. WARNING: The two-(2) stainless steel straps included with the
light bar are universal and should securely hold onto the window ledge of most vehicles. Some
vehicles may require a custom designed strap to properly secure the light bar to the vehicle's window
ledge. Always make sure that both straps have a full hold on the vehicles window ledge.
