CAUTION:
Under no circumstances should mobile radio antenna be mounted to rear of cab or antenna cable be routed near harness for electrical system controllers or near operator controls. Failure to follow these precautions could expose operator to radio frequency energy levels higher than recommended by American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and/or could cause undesirable performance of electronically controlled systems.
IMPORTANT:
Avoid possible interference of tractor electronics by keeping radio, power and antenna cables close to the cab roof.
Install radio on the upper two studs of left-rear cab post.
Install the antenna mount in a hole drilled 178 mm (7 in.) diagonally in from left-front corner on top of cab roof.

Remove rain cap (A) and attach non-ground plane type antenna to the mount.
IMPORTANT:
Weld a braided cable to the antenna base to ground the steel cab frame for antenna requiring a ground.

NOTE:
Antenna should be trimmed to appropriate variable standing wave ratio (VSWR). A professional installer is recommended.
Route the antenna cable to the left side through the hole in the black inner roof which is provided for wiring harnesses.

CAUTION:
Prevent possible personal injury. Disconnect battery ground cable before any electrical repair.
Remove fuse and relay covers. Find terminal block, located below relays, and connect mobile radio power harness and ground wire. Remove left rear post upholstery and route wiring up post, securing with electrical tape, to inner roof upholstery in location of speaker. Minimize the length of wire used to power the radio to prevent potential interference with the tractor electronics.

NOTE:
Power for the radio includes three wires-switched, unswitched, and ground.
Route the antenna cable (B) and power with ground wire (C) from above the inner roof to inside the cab by left rear cab post.
