IMPORTANT NOTICE

Installation of overhead products requires careful planning and preparation. If you have any questions regarding wire routing in a vehicle, please contact MTX Technical Support at

1-800-225-5689.

When connecting power and ground wires ensure that the yellow power wire is fused at the point where it is connected to the vehicle’s battery. Failure to do so can result in damage to the vehicle if a short circuit develops between the vehicle connection point and the product.

WARNINGS

• Clean the unit with a damp soft cloth, using a non-abrasive cleaner.

• Do not use solvents such as benzene, thinner as they will damage the finish and operation of

the unit.

• Remember to leave the dome light switch in the off position when the vehicle is unattended, as the

dome lights, if left on, can drain the vehicle’s battery.

INSTALLATION

The MUDSYS31, MUDSYS41, and MUDSYS46 will mount to a variety of roll cages that have a diameter between 1.75" and 2". Installation is a two part process. Part one involves securely mounting the unit to the roll cage and part two involves connecting the wiring to the vehicle’s battery.

Each unit comes preassembled in the carton. Each end has a top side flat bracket and an underside C-clamp designed to lock the unit into place between the roll cage. Each top bracket has four (4) total bolts.

When the bolts are loosened, the bracket can slide to accommodate a variety of roll cages whose inside roll bar dimension is between 32.25" and 38.75" for the

MUDSYS31, 43.0" and 49.0" for the MUDSYS41, and

49.25" and 56.0" for the MUDSYS46. Once the proper width has been established, these bolts should be retightened to a torque specification of 40-45 inch/lbs.

Each C-bracket has two (2) total bolts. These bolts can be loosened to adjust the clamp angle allowing it to mount to a variety of roll cages including those that are angled.

M T X . C O M

Remove the bolts from the C-bracket so the top bracket and C-bracket can be properly positioned around the roll cage.

Once the C-brackets are in the proper location for mounting, the bolts should be retightened to a torque specification of 65-70 inch/lbs.

The unit has an integrated wiring harness that includes a power, ground, and accessory wire that are designed to connect to the vehicle’s battery providing it power. The wiring harness is 3 meters but can be cut to fit the individual vehicle. The fused yellow loop should be cut at least 2” from the fuse holder and the short end should be coupled to the yellow power wire once it has been run to the area where the battery is located. The other end of the yellow wire is designed to be connected to the positive (+) terminal on the vehicle’s battery using one of the included ring terminals. The included 15A fuse and fuse holder should be attached to the yellow wire no more than 18 inches from the battery to protect against damage or injury if a short in the wire were to occur. The black wire is designed to be connected to the negative (-) terminal on the vehicle’s battery using the second included ring terminal. The red accessory wire needs to be connected to the accessory switch. This ensures that the unit powers on when the vehicle is On and powers Off when the vehicle is not being used.
