PLACEMENT AND MOUNTING:

Wire Cutters/Crimpers/Strippers

Prior to installing your MX-1, be sure that you have identified a good mounting location that will allow for easy access
to make adjustments. Determine the best routes for your wires and lay them out before permanent installation.

In most applications, mounting the MX-1 module close to the amplifier is ideal. Once the mounting location is
determined, mark the 4 mounting holes with a marker. Prior to pre-drilling the holes, ensure that there are dangers
on the other side of the metal. Once the holes have been pre-drilled, clean the metal shavings from the area and
mount the MX-1 into location.

- Read the entire manual prior to attempting the installation.
- Run all RCA’s so that they are far from any high current wires.
- Always inspect an area prior to drilling. Avoid cutting or drilling into electrical wires, fluid lines and gas tanks.
- All power wires connected to the front battery should have the appropriate fuse in line within 12” of the battery
terminal.
- The ground connection integrity to the chassis is very important. The best way to achieve a good, solid electrical
and mechanical contact is to use a large round crimp lug, crimped and soldered to the ground wire. Then scrape
or sand the paint off of the vehicle chassis, slightly larger than the ground lug, at the connection point. Drill a
clearance hole in the chassis, the same size as the lug hole, and use a bolt, spring washer and nut to securely
fasten the ground lug. Use petroleum jelly to coat the bolt/lug connection to prevent oxidization with time.
