4 mounting holes.
Holes should be drilled from the front of the unit,
taking care not to apply too much force to the drill.
Panel mounting
To panel mount the radio follow the steps below.
Before mounting the product, ensure that you have:
• Selected a suitable location, ensuring there is nothing
behind the mounting surface that may be damaged
when drilling / cutting.
• Identified the cable connections and route that the
cables will take.
• Removed the mounting hole covers.
• Drilled out the mounting holes on the unit.
1. Check the selected location for the unit. A clear,
flat area with suitable clearance behind the panel
is required.
2. Fix the supplied mounting template to the selected
location, using masking or self-adhesive tape.
3. Using a suitable hole saw (the size is indicated on
the template), make a hole in each corner of the
cut-out area.
4. Using a suitable saw, cut along the inside edge of
the cut-out line.
5. Ensure that the unit fits into the removed area and
then file around the rough edge until smooth.
6. Drill 4 holes as indicated on the template to accept
the fixings.
7. Remove the backings from the supplied gasket.
8. Place the gasket in position on the back of the unit
and press firmly onto the flange.
9. Connect the power, and other cables to the unit.
10. Slide the unit into place and secure using the fixings
provided.
11. Attach the mounting hole covers.
Note:
The supplied gasket provides a seal between the
unit and a suitably flat and stiff mounting surface or
binnacle. The gasket should always be used. It may
also be necessary to use a marine-grade sealant if
the mounting surface or binnacle is not entirely flat
and stiff or has a rough surface finish.
