• Ensure before starting adhesive work that the temperature of materials to be glued and the adhesive
sealant is between +5 °C and +40 °C. Prepare all necessary fasteners and tools.
• Prepare the tube of adhesive sealant in accordance with the instructions enclosed with the tube.
• Remove the roof gland (Fig. A) and apply the adhesive sealant evenly to the underside of the roof gland
fl ange.
Replace the roof gland in the drilled hole and press it fi rmly against the roof of the vehicle.
• Apply the adhesive sealant evenly to the underside of the mounting plate, completely covering the area
within the circular groove (Fig. D).
This area of the vehicle roof must be completely coated with adhesive in order to achieve the necessary
bonding force.
Place the mounting plate on the roof of the vehicle, as you did previously when marking out the drilled
holes.
Make sure that the arrow on the mounting plate points forward in the direction of travel.
The fastening holes must be perfectly aligned with the prepared holes in the roof.
• Fasten the mounting plate in place with the prepared screws, evenly tightening six screws across the
diagonals.
Note: The adhesive sealant used is capable of bridging small gaps caused by the curvature of the
vehicle's roof. However, you should ensure that the mounting plate is not bent by tightening
the screws.
• Remove any adhesive sealant that leaks out at the sides with a clean cloth or if necessary with
Sikafl ex
®
Remover (available from specialist dealers). Do not use cleaning agents or thinners containing
solvents, as this could damage the adhesive sealant applied under the mounting plate. Use only
cleansing paste and water to clean your hands.
• Secure the cable gland from inside the vehicle by tightening the knurled nut supplied (Fig. A).
• Note that the curing of the adhesive sealant depends on the ambient temperature and the humidity.
Final strength is reached after approx. fi ve days. However, it is possible to carry out further installation
work with no problems, as the mounting plate is held in place by the tightened screws.

VARIANT WITH CABLE GLAND UNDERNEATH THE TURNTABLE
• Feed the ends of the cables with the connectors as far as possible through the cable gland into the
interior of the vehicle.
