mounted using Yoke Mounting instructions below.
Installation of M6 mounting fasteners for fixed central mounting configuration. To provide adequate
engagement, fasteners must have a minimum of 8mm and a maximum of 10mm exposed threads after
insertion into user-supplied mounting hardware (not shown).
1. Mount unit to bracket or mounting surface using a minimum of (2) M6 fasteners. Torque
mounting fasteners to 45 in-lb. Use of medium strength thread-locker (Loctite 242 or
equivalent) is recommended for all mounting hardware.
2. (Optional) Attach secondary safety chain or cable to attachment point using cable, quick link, or
other locking connector system with a suitable load rating. It is recommended that at least one
secondary safety attachment is made for each unit. Secondary safety point is sized for ½” quick
link chain or other locking connector.

Yoke Mounting: Mounting for all ZLM, ZLM2, and ZLM4 configurations. Three M6 fasteners must be
used for each side (not provided). To provide adequate engagement, fasteners must have a minimum of
8mm and a maximum of 10mm exposed threads after insertion into mounting hardware.
1. Loosely install central M6 mounting fastener on each side. If using an adjustable or multiposition bracket, aim fixture in desired direction. Install remaining (2) fasteners per side and
torque all mounting fasteners to 45 in-lb. Use of medium strength thread-locker (Loctite 242 or
equivalent) is recommended for all mounting hardware.
2. Attach secondary safety chain or cable to attachment points using cable, quick link, or other
locking connector system with a suitable load rating. It is recommended that at least one
secondary safety attachment is made on for ZLM and ZLM2 models. Two secondary safety
attachment points should be used for ZLM4 models. Secondary safety point is sized for ½” quick
