2.5 Mounting the Fishfinder
The DS600X can be mounted on a dash, chart table, bulkhead or deckhead
using the supplied hardware. The unit can also be flush mounted directly into
the console.
Bracket Mounting
➤
To mount the DS600X on the supplied bracket:
1. Loosen the knobs and remove the mounting bracket from the unit.
2. Mark the locations of the mounting bracket screw holes on the mounting
surface.
3. Drill 5/16" (7 mm) holes through the mounting surface at the marked
locations.
4. Align the mounting bracket holes with the holes on the mounting surface.
5. Use the screws and nuts supplied to attach the mounting bracket to the
mounting surface at the marked locations.
6. Attach the unit to the mounting bracket, adjust the display angle, and
tighten the knobs.
Console Mounting (optional)
The fishfinder may also be installed directly into the console. This requires
the purchase of an optional Flush Mount kit, Raymarine part number
E32051.
➤
To flush mount the unit directly into the console using the optional kit:
1. Make sure there are no hidden electrical wires or other items behind the
location before proceeding. Make sure there is sufficient rear access for
mounting and cabling.
2. Check the selected location for the unit. A clear, flat area at least 7¼" (184
mm) wide by 7¼" (184 mm) high, with at least 3½" (89 mm) of clearance
behind the panel, is required.
3. Using the template supplied at the end of this handbook, trace out the unit
opening and four mounting screw locations.
4. Drill a ½ in (12.7 mm) pilot hole in each corner of the cut-out area.
5. Using a suitable saw, cut along the inside edge of the cut-out line.
6. Remove the mounting bracket knobs and bracket from the unit. Make
sure that the unit fits in the cut-out area.
7. Drill four 3/16" (5 mm) holes as indicated on the template.
