damage caused by fire or overheating, the appropriate fuse
must be in place as indicated in the product specifications. In
addition, connecting the power cable without the appropriate
fuse in place will void the product warranty.
Always wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a dust mask

NOTICE
• The device should be mounted in an accessible location.
You must be able to readily access the joystick and buttons
to interact with the assigned navigation device.
• To avoid interference with a magnetic compass, the device
®
should not be installed closer to a compass than the
compass-safe distance value listed in the product
specifications.
• The location must allow room for the routing and connection
of the cables.
Mounting the Device
Be careful when cutting the hole to flush mount the device.
There is only a small amount of clearance between the case
and the mounting holes, and cutting the hole too large could
compromise the stability of the device after it is mounted.
If you are mounting the bracket on fiberglass with screws, it is
recommended to use a countersink bit to drill a clearance
counterbore through only the top gel-coat layer. This will help to
avoid any cracking in the gel-coat layer when the screws are
tightened.
The included template and hardware can be used to mount the
device at the selected location.
1
Trim the flush-mount template and make sure it fits in the
location where you want to mount the device.
2
Remove the protective liner from the back of the template
and adhere it to the location where you want to mount the
device.
