THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE FOR MAGNET & VHB BACKED MOUNTING DISCS— MAGNETIC FEET ARE SOLD SEPARATELY
Magnet & VHB backed magnetic mounting discs:
1. Feed bolts (blue loctite already applied) through spaces at each of the 4 feet on the TRIO Flatmount
2. Thread the screws into the magnets and tighten using the allen key supplied.
3. Attach one VHB backed magnetic mounting disc to each of the magnetic feet, ensuring each are free of debris.
4. PLEASE NOTE: the mounting substrate that your mounting discs will be stuck to should be non-porous and smooth. It is recommended to lightly scuff the surface you will be sticking the VHB discs to using a scotch pad. HOWEVER, do this at your discretion as doing so will scratch the finish of your mounting surface. Use isopropyl alcohol wipes to clean the scuffed surface you wish to secure the VHB mounting discs to.
5. Remove the red VHB sticker cover and carefully place the flat mount with the exposed VHB mounting discs onto the freshly cleaned surface. THE TRIO FLATMOUNT LOGO (AND DISH CORD) SHOULD BE POINTED TOWARDS THE BACK (TRAILING EDGE) OF YOUR VEHICLE/BOAT/RV ETC.
6. Apply firm pressure through the mounting feet to ensure adhesion. If possible, place heavy object on top of the mount for 24 hrs to optimize adhesion (ideal application temperature is 70-100F).
7. Slide the Starlink dish onto the TRIO Flatmount until it clicks firmly into place and make sure it is secure… and enjoy your internet!
**When removing from the vehicle, lift from the rear portion of the mount itself rather than using the dish as a lever.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Many factors beyond TRIO Flatmount’s control and uniquely within user’s knowledge and control can affect the use and performance of a mounting product in a particular application. Given the variety of factors that can affect the use and performance of a TRIO Flatmount product, user is solely responsible for evaluating the product and determining whether it is fit for a particular purpose and suitable for user’s method of application.
