INSTALLATION:

Step 1 – First determine where you would like to

place the speaker and at what angle the speaker
will be mounted. Place enclosure on bar with
desired angle and make a mark in the middle of
the wire hole on the bar. This mark will be where
the speaker wire will come thru the bar into the
enclosure.

Step 2 – Drill a 3⁄8" hole for the speaker wire on the

mark that you made. Deburr the hole to keep from
damaging the speaker wire. Treat the hole with a
paint or sealer to inhibit corrosion.

Step 3 – Connect the safety tether

Drill out safety tether hole using a 1⁄4" drill bit on
enclosure depending on which side you would like
to mount the tether. Loop safety tether around Bar.

Next place tether bolt through tether ring and
rubber washer. Then put bolt through drilled hole
on enclosure and secure with metal washer and
locknut. Let enclosure hang by tether until next step.

Step 4 – Run speaker wire thru the bar and leave

8" – 12" of speaker wire hanging out of the hole.
Next place rubber inserts into the enclosure and
bracket. Please select the correct insert size
according to the insert selection guide on page 3.
Place round foam gaskets on to bracket standoffs.

Place enclosure in desired location and pull wire
through wire hole. Place top bracket on top of the
bar above the enclosure. Start to thread the bracket
screws into bracket from inside the enclosure.
Tighten front and back screws evenly, make sure to
tighten until bracket holds tight and the enclosure
does not move.

Step 5 – Connect speaker wire to the input on the

speaker, making sure to keep the polarity correct.

Place woofer into the enclosure with the badge
closest to the top. Make sure to tuck the wires
into the enclosure so they do not get caught in the
opening. Screw in the 4 speaker bolts, make sure to
tighten the bolts fully.

NOTE: If bolts are removed after installation,
threadlock must be re-applied.

Step 6 – Connect speaker wire to amplifier, place

boat in water, crank the THUNDER and enjoy.
