Wolo 7900 SERIES Lookout - Manual (Page 3)

11. Tighten the two-(2) tension adjustment bolts evenly. While tightening the bolts make sure the light bar
remains in the desired mounting position on the roof. Torque bolts to 10-12 ft-lbs. Failure to properly
tighten the tension adjustment bolts and straps could result in damage to the vehicle and/or injury to
driver or others.
12. The hooked end of the stainless steel strap that is engaged to the vehicle’s window ledge has three
holes, which will secure the bracket to the vehicle with sheet
metal screws provided. Use each of the holes in the bracket as
a template to drill a hole into the window ledge, drill to size
5/32”. Secure the stainless steel strap to the window ledge with
the self-tapping sheet metal screws provided. IMPORTANT:
The installer may have to lower headliner and inspect the
selected location to ensure that there are no components, wires
and or any other vehicle part that could be damaged by drilling.
See Fig. 4.
13. Place the weather-strip back into position.
14. Insert the two cables into the access hole that was drilled into
the roof earlier and make sure the rubber grommet has been
installed into the drilled hole. Route the cables into the B-pillar.
15. The power cable will make an approximate 90° bend into the
B-pillar. Depending on the vehicle, this can sometimes be difficult, but it is the recommended
procedure for proper installation. Installation will vary for each make and model vehicle and it is up to
the installation technician's discretion whether to route the power cable as recommend through the
B-pillar or use an alternative routing method. Route cables down to the
bottom of the B-pillar and the pull the full length of both cables into the
interior of the vehicle. See fig. 5.
16. Make sure that both cables have been completely pulled into the vehicle, use
silicon or similar waterproof material around the grommet and cables to
ensure a waterproof installation.
