Safety considerations when installing
Please remember that these are heavy products that will be installed in a
boating environment. These vehicles can travel at high speeds and be unstable.
So please consider this and use extreme caution. Some safety considerations
include:
- Do not mount the speakers in a location where someone may either walk into or strike their head. During a turbulent ride, please make sure that you do not loosen footing and fall or hit the unit, or it may cause injury.
- Secure the wires to the speakers in multiple locations along their route to your audio source, so that there are no hanging loops of wire. Having un secure wires in any hanging conditions can cause entanglement and injury.
- Tighten the aluminum bands with rubber inserts using care. Do not over compress the rubber inserts. After installation is complete, please recheck all bolts and tighten them further if needed before taking your boat or vessel out for an audio adventure.
- Do not install these speakers where they may block the view of the pilot and prevent safe operation of the vessel or vehicle.
It is strongly recommended that you work with an assistant to install these speakers.
Installation instructions
STEP 1
To adjust the mounting angle, loosen the metal base of the mounting band by
unbolting the two screws.
Make sure to put all components of the mounting hardware in a safe location.
STEP 2
Twist the metal base to determine the optimal mounting angle for the speaker
on the cage bar. Then secure the metal base by tightening the two screws.
STEP 3
Place a supplied rubber pad (48 x 30 mm) on the metal base of the mounting
band to prevent abrasion and secure clamping.
STEP 4
Place two supplied rubber strips around the cage bar to prevent abrasion and
secure clamping.
Then push two supplied aluminum bands over the cage bar, and align the
aluminum bands with the metal base on the speakers.
STEP 5
As illustrated, secure the aluminum bands to the metal base using a pair of M6
x 60mm screws, M6 flat washers, and M6 locknuts. The locknuts must be
installed into the hex shaped recess on one end of each aluminum band.
Hand-tighten the screws to the degree which allows just enough freedom to
rotate the speaker around the cage bar.
STEP 6
Speaker installation now completes.
Bluetooth
Through Bluetooth connection, you can stream music from a Bluetooth device (e.g. a mobile phone) to the speakers. Make sure Bluetooth is enabled on the device. When the device is in Bluetooth range, it will connect Bluetooth automatically and will be disconnected when it is out of Bluetooth range.
AUX input
Using the supplied 3.5mm audio cable, connect the speaker to your mobile phone for audio input to the speakers. Make sure Bluetooth connection is not made to enable AUX input.
