2. INSTALLATION
2.1 MOUNTING HARDWARE
INSTALLATION—ROOF MOUNT
2.1.1 General
2. l . I .l The installation procedure which follows is for
a typical passenger car. The procedure may vary
slightly with the type of vehicle on which the antenna is
to be installed. Generally speaking, however, the proce»
dures outlined are of a universal nature.
NOTE
The antenna should be mounted on a flat metal
roof of .020 to .040 inch thickness.
2.1.1.2 First. select a location for the antenna as near
the center of the roof as possible.
2.1.1.3 The headlining may be probed with the fingers
to make sure that all points of obstruction are
avoided.
2. l . 1 Installation Procedure—
Single Wall Construction
Step I . Locate the center of the roof by careful measure-
ment, remove the headlining as necessary, and drill a pilot
hole down through the roof. If the interior light of the
car is centered in the roof. remove this light and fixture
and drill the pilot hole up through the roof at about the
center of the interior light mountings This centers the
antenna mount on the roof and allows for easy access.
Step 2. Drill a 3/4 " hole from the top of the roof until
the saw bottoms, Use a Motorola hole cutting saw
(OI-KUJSZAzsj or equivalent. When the saw bottoms on
the roof, it cleans off the paint in a neat circle and assures
good contact with the locking nut.
IMPORTANT
For proper seating of bushing assembly,
remove burrs and scrape any foreign matter
from underside of hole out to at least l/3 ” from
edge.
Step 3. Remove the molding which secures the headlin-
ing in the rear quarter of the car on the side on which
the radio set is installed,
NOTE
To insure ease of assembly, thread the lock-
ing nut on and then off the bushing assembly
before installation, This removes any burrs
which may be present.
Step 4. See Figure 4. From the top. feed the RG-SSA/U
lead-in cable between the headlining and the metal roof.
and into the trunk. Then take up the slack from the trunk
end of the cable.
Step 5. See Figure 5. The bushing assembly is now in
a position to drop into the hole in the roof. It should be
tilted at a slight angle and led into the 3/4" hole. The
threaded top will not fall through the hole.
Step 6. See Figure 6. Hold the antenna bushing assembly
in place with the index finger and thread the locking nut
onto it as shown.
Step 7. Pull up on the bushing assembly as illustrated
in Figure 7, and make sure it is centered and seated (both
shoulders inside the drilled hole), and that the “O" ring
is in the groove in the locking nut. (As fumished, the “O“
ring has been placed in the locking nut groove and im-
bedded in silicone grease). Tighten the locking nut until
it bottoms firmly against the roof top,
NOTE
See Figure 2. lf the bushing assembly should
slip or rotate for any reason during the tighten-
ing procedure. insen the tips of a long nose
plier or spanner wrench into the two holes in
the bushing assembly and apply force to pre-
vent rotation until the locking nut is tight.
The locking nut must come into contact with the car
roof to insure the proper antenna radiation pattern. This
can only happen when the rubber “O” ring is fully
compressed.
Step 8. Take up the slack in the cable and replace the
headlining retainer molding.
Step 9. Replace headlining and dome light if removed.

2J.3.l Vehicles with Dome Lights or Removable
Headliningt
Step ll Remove the dome light from its mount or remove
the headlining from the installation area.
Step 2. Drill a small pilot hole centered in the roof of
the vehicle, The center of the cavity where the dome light
was removed is sufficiently close.
Step 3. Using a l'A " diameter hole saw cut a hole in
the inside layer of the metal.
Step 4, Remove the metal and fillet from this “A”
diameter hole.
Step 5, Complete the installation per installation pro»
cedure given for vehicles with single wall construction,
A completed mount is illustrated in Figure Sr
21.3.2 Vehicles Without Dome Lights
When the vehicle has no dome light, and it is
not feasible to remove the headlining to get to the inside
surface, proceed as follows:
Step l. Locate the center of the roof and make sure the
area beneath this point is clear to allow passage of a drilli
Step 2. With a 3/4 " diameter hole cutting saw carefully
cut a 3/4” hole from the top of the roof through both
thicknesses of metalr Clean the metal in a neat circle
around the hole to assure a good contact between the roof
metal and the locking nut.
Step 3. Remove any burrs and remove the filler
separating the roof thicknesses for a distance of 1/4 " back
from the hole.
Step 4A lnstall the mount to the outside roof thickness
per installation procedure given for vehicles with single
wall construction.

MOTOROLA RECOMMENDATIONS FOR MOBILE ANTENNA [OCATION
The United States Department of Labor, through the provisions of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of l970 (OSHA).
has established an electromagnetic safety standard which applies to the use of mobile radios Proper installation and
use of this antenna will result in exposure below the OSHA Limitt
Antennas must be installed at least two feet* (0.6 meter) from vehicle operators and passengers unless shielded by a
metallic surface.
Motorola recommends that mobile antennas be located as follows:
Standard metal passenger vehicles .............. Center roof or center trunk lid
Vans. pickups. and other light tmcks
(metal roofs) ................................ Center roof
Heavy duty equipment with metal roofs (heavy duty
trucks. semi-tractors. heavy refuse trucks. cement
mixer trucks) ............................... Center cab roof
Specialty vehicles (such as T-rrmfs, sun roofs, or
convertibles) ................................ Center truck lid
Other vehicles ...... Contact your Motorola Field Technical Representative.
Do not install closer than two feet or without proper
antenna ground plane,
(Gutter mount antennas are not recommended for transmitters of more than 6 watts.)
*Motorcycle and Industrial Dispatcher radios — one foot (0.3 meter) for transmitters of 30 watts or less.
