1.  Once you have found a suitable mount-

ing position for  G3

    

, hold the unit and 

the unattached mounting bracket in the 
proposed mounting position and check 
that there is clearance behind the unit for 
the heatsink, cables, etc. Check that the 
position provides a large enough flat 
surface that the bracket will not be dis-
torted when installed.  

2.  Using the installation bracket as a tem-

plate, mark the four locations for drilling 
(see Figure 1). Again, ensure that drill-
ing at the selected points is safe and will 
not cause damage. 

3.  Indent the drilling positions with a cen-

ter punch.  

4.  Drill holes sized for the self-tapping 

screws or for the nuts, bolts and lock 
washers used.   

Caution: Slightly reduce the size of the 
drilled holes when using self-tapping 
screws in thin metal.

5.  Install the bracket without distorting. 
 
6.  Securely mount  G3

     

to the installed 

bracket using the four supplied 8x40 
black machine screws.  

7.  Drill any additional holes as required for 

routing all cables and fit holes with 
suitable grommets or bushings 
whenever required. 

 G3

    

 is designed to operate from a 13.8Vdc 

nominal car battery (negative ground) and 
requires currents up to 15.0A. It will tolerate 
a supply voltage range of 10.9 volts to 16.3 
volts. 
In vehicles with a 24 VDC electrical system 
(mostly in trucks), it is essential to provide a 
suitably rated 24/12 VDC converter to iso-
late the unit from the battery and protect it 
against excessive voltage. 
 
Warnings:  

1.  Start by disconnecting the vehicle’s bat-

tery unless specifically prohibited from 
doing so by the customer, vehicle manu-
facturer, agent or supplier. 
Note:  

2.  The 22 feet (6.7 meters) long power ca-

ble consists of three wires attached to a 
Packard Electric “Weather-Pack” con-
nector (DC power Connector).
