1.6.2 Mounting a Radio
A radio up to 2.25 inches high can be mounted inside the EF-Series Unit enclosure by using the
optional radio bracket. This bracket allows most radios to be secured in the compartment. Fasten the
radio to the bracket using one of the predrilled mounting patterns and the four 6-32 × 0.25 pan-head
screws (supplied).
For an MDS radio:
1.
Remove the winged brackets supplied with the radio.
2.
Fasten the radio through the bottom of the radio bracket using the four 6-32 × 0.25 flat-head
screws supplied.
3.
Place the radio and bracket into the enclosure, aligning the assembly over the two studs on the
back panel of the enclosure and the screw next to the swing-out panel.
4.
Slide the bracket to the right to engage the slots, and tighten the screw.
5.
Route the radio antenna either to the right or to the left and then out the bottom of the
enclosure.
1.6.3 Accessing the Battery Compartment
As many as four 7-amp-hour batteries can be mounted inside the EF-Series Unit enclosure. Refer to
