DB Research L.L.P. highly recommends that a certified installation technician installs of tubbie enclosure.If you choose to perform the installation yourself, it is absolutely necessary that the tubbie be properly mounted in a well-thought-out manner. Failure to mount the tubbie properly could present two issues: 1) The tubbies reliability and performance will suffer due to the movement of the tube caused by vibration on the craft.
An unproperly mounted enclosure presents a serious safety hazard, especially in rough conditions where loose mounting bolts could cause the mount to fail.

  2. Swivel tubbie to the desired angle.
