Meter holder installation
Insert the mounting base into the meter holder, and fix with bolt and nut. Insert switch bracket
Attach a sponge tape on the meter unit. Be careful not to wrinkle the sponge tape. When attaching the meter visor, attach metervisor before attaching the sponge tape.
Note: Meter visor and switch bracket cannot be used at the same time.
Remove the nut behind the external control switch, and place the switch through the bracket, and fix with the nut again.
Connect the main harness and external control switch on the back of the meter, through the meter holder.
Inset the meter unit into the meter holder. Be careful with the sponge tape from detaching.
Place double-sided adhesive tape to the mount base.
Before attaching the meter onto the mounting surface, bend the mount base to fit the mounting surface. Attach the adhesive tape with various sizes sor maximum adhesion surface area.
Clean and degrease the mounting surface, and attach the mounting base with double-sided adhesive tape. If the double-sided tape is not secure enough, use tapping screw (Not included) for reinforcement.
Attention |
□ Fo the maximum adhesion of the double-sided adhesive tape, |
|
make sure to clean/degrease the mounting surface thoroughly. |
|
|
|
□ Be careful not to damage the wiring by pinch the wires |
|
in between the meter unit and the meter holder. |
