Swath XL Lightbar

The lightbar should be located within the operator’s field of view while under normal driving conditions.
The lightbar can be mounted on the vehicle cab dash or ceiling. The lightbar is weather proof and can be
mounted to the exterior of a vehicle. Exterior mounting may require additional lengths of cable. Measure
this distance prior to permanent installation. Lightbar extension cables are available through MID-TECH or
your MID-TECH distributor. For in cab installation, minimize the head movement required by the operator
to view the lightbar. When the lightbar is installed in a location that requires minimum or no effort to view,
operator fatigue is greatly reduced. Use the two knobs on either end of the Lightbar to adjust the tilt, see Fig-
ure 1-2.

Smartpad and Interface Cable

The Smartpad and interface cable should be located in the cab so that the operator can easily reach, view,
and operate the system. See Figure 1-3 for instruction on how to connect the lightbar and Smartpad to the
interface cable. Make sure the interface cables are not under any excess strain and can not be closed in a cab
door or window, or stepped on by the operator. We recommend that the interface box be mounted within
