screws holding the Mounting Strap in place. The Hex
Head Cap Screws pass from the inside to the outside
of the bracket. They first pass through the Mounting
Strap, then a Guard Washer, then the Mounting
Bracket. On the outside of the bracket, the screw
first holds a Flat Washer and then a Lock Washer
before being secured with a Nylock Nut.

Adjust the Mounting Straps so that they are as

Guard Washer, then the Mounting Bracket, a Flat
Washer and Lock Washer. Then loosely secure with
a Nylock Nut. The nuts will be fully secured later in
the installation.
NOTICE:
To prevent seizing of the stainless steel
hardware, do not use high speed installation tools.
The hardware holding the Mounting Straps in place
has a pre-applied anti-seize.
