TweeterMounting
Figure 5
The tweeter can be mounted one of three ways: flush, surface and angled mounting. For
flush mounting applications, please refer to the illustration in Figure 5. Choose a flat
location on the panel with space behind the panel to allow room for the mounting nut. After
checking the clearances, cut the appropriate mounting hole diameter in the panel (see the
chart below). Place the shorter mounting nut behind the panel. Feed the wire through the
hole in the panel and the mounting nut. Mount the tweeter by screwing the mounting nut
onto the tweeter.

For surface mounting applications use the surface mount cup as a template and pre-drill
two 7/64” (2.5mm) screw holes for attaching the mounting cup to the panel, and a 5/16”
(8mm) hole for the wires. Two #8 flathead stainless steel sheet metal screws are supplied to
attach the mounting cup to the panel. Position the tweeter over the mounting cup and press
it into position. See Figure 5.
For angled mounting applications choose a flat location on the panel with space behind the
panel to allow room for the mounting nut and back angle ring. After checking the
clearances, cut the appropriate mounting hole diameter in the panel (see the chart below).
Place the front angle ring (does not fit through the longer tweeter mounting nut) in front of
the panel. Then place the wire and tweeter through the front angle ring and into the panel.
Next place the wire through the back angle ring (fits through the longer tweeter mounting
nut), place the back angle ring over the rear of the tweeter, and line-up the narrow part of
the front angle ring for the preferred angle of operation. Place the wire through the longer
tweeter mounting nut and loosely tighten the mounting nut around the tweeter. Rotate all the
parts in unison until the tweeter is angled in the desired direction. Secure the assembly by
tightening the tweeter mounting nut. See Figure 5.

Wiring
Carefully place the speaker wire in a location that is clear of standing water and moving
components of the vessel. For reference, the Blue wire is Positive and the Silver wire is
Negative. Mount the crossover to the woofer’s back plate with the enclosed phillips-head
M3 stainless steel machined screws, or mount the crossover remotely in a location free and
clear of standing water. The locking crossover cover with water resistant gasket is
removable for wiring installation; it helps prevent terminal corrosion and electrical shorting.
The positive and negative gold plated terminals are of different sizes and correspond to the
appropriate gold plated positive and negative wire connectors. Take off the crossover cover,
and connect the wire from the woofer to the “WF” terminal and the wire from the tweeter to
the “TW” terminal. Connect the supplied 15 feet (4.5m) of wire to “IN” terminal in the
crossover. Carefully route the wires through the slot between the crossover and crossover
cover, and snap the crossover cover back on the crossover. Connect the other end of the
heavy gauge wire to your amplifier in accordance with its owner's manual. See Figure 4.

AcousticsLimitedWarranty
InternationalWarranty
Kicker warrants this product to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use for a period of
THREE (3) MONTHS from date of original purchase with receipt. When purchased from an Authorized KICKER Dealer
it is warranted for ONE (1) YEAR from date of original purchase with receipt. In all cases you must have the original
receipt. Should service be necessary under this warranty for any reason due to manufacturing defect or malfunction
during the warranty period, Kicker will repair or replace (at its discretion) the defective merchandise with equivalent
merchandise at no charge. Warranty replacements may have cosmetic scratches and blemishes. Discontinued
products may be replaced with more current equivalent products.
Contact your International Kicker dealer or distributor concerning specific procedures for your country's warranty
policies.
WARNING: KICKER products are capable of producing sound levels that can permanently damage your hearing!
Turning up a system to a level that has audible distortion is more damaging to your ears than listening to an
undistorted system at the same volume level. The threshold of pain is always an indicator that the sound level is too
loud and may permanently damage your hearing. Please use common sense when controlling volume.
This warranty is valid only for the original purchaser and is not extended to owners of the product subsequent to the
original purchaser. Any applicable implied warranties are limited in duration to a period of the express warranty as
provided herein beginning with the date of the original purchase at retail, and no warranties, whether express or
implied, shall apply to this product thereafter. Some states do not allow limitations on implied warranties; therefore
these exclusions may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights; however you may have other
rights that vary from state to state.
GARANTÍA INTERNACIONAL

Comuníquese con su concesionario o distribuidor Kicker internacional para obtener infor ación sobre procedimientos
específicos relacionados con las normas de garantía de su país.
ADVERTENCIA: Los excitadores Kicker son capaces de producir niveles de sonido que pueden dañar
permanentemente el oído. Subir el volumen del sistema hasta un nivel que produzca distorsión es más dañino para el
oído que escuchar un sistema sin distorsión al mismo volumen. El dolor es siempre una indicación de que el sonido es
muy fuerte y que puede dañar permanentemente el oído. Sea precavido cuando controle el volumen.
WHAT TO DO IF YOU NEED WARRANTY OR SERVICE
Defective merchandise should be returned to your local Authorized Stillwater Designs (Kicker) Dealer for warranty
Designs directly. You can confirm that a dealer is authorized by asking to see a current authorized dealer window
decal.

WARNUNG: KICKER-Treiber können einen Schallpegel erzeugen, der zu permanenten Gehörschäden führen kann!
Wenn Sie ein System auf einen Pegel stellen, der hörbare Verzerrungen erzeugt, schadet das Ihren Ohren mehr, als ein
nicht verzerrtes System auf dem gleichen Lautstärkepegel. Die Schmerzschwelle ist immer eine Anzeige dafür, dass
der Schallpegel zu laut ist und zu permanenten Gehörschäden führen kann. Seien Sie bei der Lautstärkeeinstellung
bitte vernünftig!
Include a copy of the original receipt with the purchase date clearly visible, and a "proof-of-purchase" statement listing
the Customer's name, Dealer's name and invoice number, and product purchased. Warranty expiration on items
without proof-of-purchase will be determined from the type of sale and manufacturing date code. Freight must be
prepaid; items sent freight-collect, or COD, will be refused.

AVERTISSEMENT: Les haut-parleurs Kicker ont la capacité de produire des niveaux sonores pouvant endommager
l'ouïe de façon irréversible ! L'augmentation du volume d'un système jusqu'à un niveau présentant une distorsion
audible endommage davantage l'ouïe que l'écoute d'un système sans distorsion au même volume. Le seuil de la
douleur est toujours le signe que le niveau sonore est trop élevé et risque d'endommager l'ouïe de façon irréversible.
Réglez le volume en faisant prevue de bon sens !
