Flush Mounting - Raymarine Apelco 5200 User Manual

2.3.2 Flush Mounting

In addition to the Typical Mounting Methods, the VHF5200 may also be flush mounted using the
optional Flush Mount kit (M99-113).
These kits are available from your Apelco dealer or our Customer Service Department.
1) Select the location for the VHF. A clear, flat area, of sufficient height having at least 6" of clear
depth behind the panel is required.
2) Unpack the Flush Mount kit and confirm that all hardware is present.
3) Place the ring at the desired location on the panel. Using the inside of the trim ring, trace
a cutout guide. Remove the trim ring.
4) Drill a pilot hole inside of the cutout guide area.
5) Using an appropriate saw, cut along the outside of the cutout line.
6) Remove the yoke knobs and the bracket from the VHF cabinet. Check that the VHF will
fit into the cutout area.
7) Install the power and antenna cables in the console.
8) Insert the trim ring in the console cutout and secure in place with the countersunk flat
head screws. A suitable sealant may be used between the trim ring and console to
prevent moisture entry. Position the radio in the trim ring and secure in place with the two
hex-head bolts and washers supplied.
9) Connect the power/external speaker and antenna cables.
Make sure there are no hidden electrical wires or other items behind the desired location
before proceeding.Check that free access for mounting and cabling is available.
