Mounting the Fishfinder

There are two possible installation methods for your Fishfinder:
• You can mount the Fishfinder onto a bracket that attaches to
the console or overhead.
• You can flush mount the Fishfinder into a flat panel.
Surface Mounting the Fishfinder
The Fishfinder 340C's compact, waterproof case is suitable for
mounting in exposed locations or at the nav station. The Fishfinder
comes with a tilt/swivel mounting bracket that can be used for
console or overhead mounting.
Mounting the Bracket Assembly
Tools (not included)—drill, screwdriver (Phillips or standard), and
one of the following:
• Three #8 (4 mm) pan-head machine bolts with matching nuts
and washers and a 5/32
• Three #8 pan-head self-tapping screws and a 1/16
for drilling starter holes.
Use a pan-head machine bolt or self-tapping screw to secure the
swivel base. If you use a screw with a countersunk head, you risk
damaging the mounting bracket.

To mount the bracket assembly:
1. Using the swivel base as a template, mark the location of
the three holes that secure the bracket to the mounting
surface.
2. Drill the mounting holes.
• If you secure the base with machine bolts, drill three
5/32" (5 mm) holes at the locations you marked.
• If you secure the base with self-tapping screws, drill
starter holes at the locations you marked. Do not make
the starter holes deeper than half the screw length.
3. Secure the swivel base with three bolts or screws. DO NOT
OVERTIGHTEN.
4. Place the swivel mount bracket over the swivel base and
secure it with the short knob.
