INSTALLATION

Bulkhead bracket
When selecting a suitable mounting position consider:
i Ease of access in an emergency.
i Position at least 1 metre from compass equipment and 50 cm from powerful
magnets e.g. magnets found in loud speakers and radio equipment.
i Allow sufficient clearance above the EPIRB to allow for easy removal from the
bulkhead bracket.
Mounting procedure
The bulkhead bracket is designed to mount on a flat surface using four fixing points.
Four stainless steel screws 25mm in length are included. Check that the rear side of the
mounting surface is clear and that the fixing screws will not penetrate through into any
other objects.
Offer the bracket into the chosen position and mark through the mounting slots using the
bracket as a template.
Drill four 3mm (1/8") holes and securely screw the bracket in place.
