The RX370p can be mounted in several ways Magnetic Mount, Surface Mount or Pole Mount.
Magnetic Mount
The magnetic mount can be screwed into the bottom of the RX370p and mounts to metal surfaces. A metal disc
and foam adhesive are included with each magnetic mount. Use the foam adhesive to bond the metal disc to the
desired mounting location if there are no metal surfaces. To use the metal disc and foam adhesive:
1. Clean and dry the mounting surface on the vehicle.
2. Remove the backing from one side of the foam adhesive and press the metal plate onto the mounting surface
on the vehicle.
3. Remove the backing from the other side of the foam adhesive.
4. Press the metal plate onto the mounting surface of the vehicle.
5. Apply firm pressure to ensure good adhesion.
6. Place the RX370p on top of the metal disc.
Surface Mount
As an alternative to the magnetic mount, the antenna is easily attached to the surface with fourmachine screws
(not included). To surface mount the antenna:
1. Photocopy the bottom of the antenna and use it as a template to plan the mounting hole locations, or use the
template located in Appendix C of this document.
WARNING! Make sure the photocopy is scaled ONE TO ONE with the mounting holes on the bottom
of the antenna!
2. Mark the mounting hole centers as necessary on the mounting surface.
3. Place the antenna over the marks to ensure that the planned hole centers agree with the true hole centers.
Adjust as necessary.
4. Use a center punch on the hole centers in order to guide the drill bit.
5. Drill the mounting holes with a 3/16 in (4.7625 mm) bit appropriate for the surface mount.
6. Place the antenna over the mounting holes and insert the mounting screws through the bottom of the
mounting surface and into the antenna.
WARNING! Install the antenna only hand-tight. Damage resulting from overtightening the antenna is
not covered by warranty.
Pole Mount
The center thread of the antenna is 5/8 in (15.875 mm) for compatibility with a survey pole (notincluded).
