   Horn Installation Procedure :

Housing openings are framed with four or six (in the case of DS siren type) screws. Each screw is equipped with lock-nuts.

 

NOTE: If present, remove the anti-bird grids before mounting horns.

Then, engage the two other un-notched holes onto the two left screws. Put back nuts onto these two left screws. Tight moderately all nuts to adjust appropriately horn positioning.
