6.10.1 CH1005A Vehicle Cradle Mounting Recommendations
The Ikôn Powered Vehicle Cradle is designed to be compatible with any RAM-B
mounting interface.
The most effective way to mount the vehicle cradle RAM mount is to use the four #M4X12
threaded inserts on the rear of the unit (see Figure 6.13). Bolts are supplied with the cradle
and must not extend more than 7 mm into the vehicle cradle.

Important: Before mounting a vehicle cradle in a vehicle, there are a number of opera-
tor safety issues that require careful attention. An improperly mounted
vehicle cradle may result in one or more of the following: operator injury,
operator visibility obstruction, operator distraction and/or poor ease of
egress for the operator. Psion Teklogix strongly recommends that you seek
professional mounting advice from the vehicle manufacturer.
Cable routing within a vehicle cab also requires careful consideration,
especially for separately tethered scanners and other devices with loose
cables. If you are unable to obtain suitable advice, contact Psion Teklogix
for assistance.
In addition, for safety reasons, only pedestal mounts with fully locking
joints should be used in vehicles. Always adjust the pedestal for the
optimum viewing angle, and securely tighten the hex and wing screws.
