TRK-SR2 PARTS
Figure 8.Verify that your TRK-SR2 package includes the above items.
RECOMMENDED TOOLS AND SUPPLIES
Although not necessary,the following tools and supplies may aid in installation:
Any tool to help cable routing (e.g.,flat dental pick,screwdriver,etc.)
Lubricant (e.g.,light machine oil to aid cable routing through old molding)
Cable tie wraps and adhesive mounting bases (to manage cable routing)
Tape measure and level (for positioning the antenna)
INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS AND TIPS
When selecting an antenna location for the TRK-SR2,make sure the
proposed site meets the following conditions:
a. The selected site must have a conductive surface area (e.g.,metal or
aluminum roof) of at least 2-14 square feet and be 6 inches from
rear window molding.
b. Line of sight to satellites must not blocked by any metal obstructions
(e.g.,crossbars from a roof rack).
c. Choose the highest possible location on the vehicles roof that satisfies
the above conditions and is as flat as possible.
Although a center position on a roof is the most aesthetically pleasing,if
there is an obstruction (e.g.,skid ribs,protruding brake light on roof line,
etc.) consider offsetting the TRK-SR2 from the center.If this doesnt work,
use the Terk TRK-SR1 Glass-Mount Satellite Radio Antenna instead.
