KX Amplifier
Installation
Mounting
When selecting a location to mount your Kicker amplifier be
sure it is structurally sound and that there are no items behind
the area where the screws will be driven that could be damaged.
Check for wire harnesses, brake lines, fuel lines, gas tanks, etc.
All amplifiers generate heat under normal operation. Be sure to
choose a location that allows adequate ventilation for the
amplifier. Also consider that the air temperature inside an
automobile’s luggage compartment can reach upwards of 140°
Fahrenheit (60° Celsius). An amplifier mounted here may require
additional cooling tactics such as fans or venting ducts to the
passenger compartment to allow cool operation. If possible,
mount the amplifier in the climate-controlled passenger
compartment.
Now that you are ready to mount your amplifier, use the
supplied 3mm allen wrench to remove the amplifier EndKap. This
will give you access to the mounting holes in the amplifier and all
wiring connections.
With the EndKap removed, drill four holes using a 7/64”
(11mm) drill bit and use the supplied #8 screws to mount the
amplifier.
