2.7 Unit Installation
2.7.1 Panel Installation
The MB10 panel mount is installed from the back of the panel. After the holes are drilled, carefully feed
the lamps and their wires through the lamp holes. Then secure the unit to the panel with the two #4-40
screws through the front plate, instrument panel, and into the unit.
Then, press the lamps into their respective openings on the front plate, until tight. They are flared to press
fit into the chassis.
