Installation Instructions-Cont.
Step 24 After the Lightbar Cable has been routed as desired, position the Lightbar on the roof of the vehicle and center it left to right, then align the
Lightbar front to back on the vehicle so that it is centered with the previously installed Gutter Hooks.
Step 25 Thread the 5/16"-18 X 3" long Screws (one on each side of the Lightbar) through mounting hole in the gutter hook and into the threads in
the Square Cage Nut in the Stainless Steel Mounting Bracket (see Figure 38)
Note: Depending on the vehicle model and location chosen for mounting the Lightbar, a different length screw may be required.
Stainless steel screws may be purchased at a local hardware store.
Step 26 Tighten the 5/16"-18 X 3" long Screws to a maximum torque of 30 inch pounds.
Note: Do Not Over Torque! Over-tightening does not improve the secureness of the lightbar to the vehicle but is actually detrimental
since it puts unnecessary stress on the lightbar, the mounting foot components, and the vehicle's roof.
