IMPORTANT NOTICE
Whenever working on the vehicle, it is recommended to disconnect the battery prior to starting work. Failure to do so may lead to a risk of electric shock or equipment damage. When connecting power and ground wires ensure that the red power wire is fused at the point where it is connected to the vehicle’s battery. Failure to do so can result in damage to the vehicle if a short circuit develops between the vehicle connection point and the product.

INSTALLATION

Choose the appropriate bracket clamp, 1.75″, 1.85″, and 2″, for the application. If using the MUD65PL with a ProFit or Profile style enclosure, use the optional bracket MUDPFC, to attach the speaker enclosure to the cage.
Attach bracket base to the enclosure at a desired angle using a minimum of two (2) M6-1.0x14mm Hex bolts and M6 lock washers. If only two (2) bolts are used, ensure there is a bolt-on on each side of the round base for secure mounting.
Slide bracket clamp over pipe or bar at the desired mounting location.
Hold the enclosure in a place where the base fits in the open section of the clamp. Then place the M6-1.0x50mm Hex bolt through making sure the threads are towards the front of the enclosure. See Figure 1.
Tighten the M6 serrated nut onto the bolt until the bracket is tight. The nut is serrated and will lock in place. The speaker will not rotate on the bar if it is mounted when these are fully tightened.
Adjust and tighten the bolts to the desired position making sure to use a minimum of two bolts. Depending on the position of the speaker, only two (2) insertion points will be usable.
Attach the MTX badge to the rear recess of the enclosure with the included double-stick tape.
Connect the speaker wires to your amplifier ensuring correct polarity Grey to positive and Black to negative. The MUD65PL includes speaker illumination. When hard-wiring the RGB lighting, the Black lead is +12V, and the Red, Green, and Blue leads are ground. There are seven colors available, depending on the wiring configuration. MTX recommends using the MUDLEDC remote control (sold separately) for more colors, patterns, and special effects. See Figure 2.
