Yoke Mount
Installation Instructions
On larger yoke control shafts and center column arms, the standard clamp adjustment knob may
protrude too far down when fully tightened onto the shaft/arm and create an obstruction or a hazard.
Thus, you may wish to replace the standard clamp adjustment knob with the provided short clamp
adjustment knob, which has a much shorter shaft.
To replace the standard clamp adjustment knob with the supplied short clamp
adjustment knob:
1. Remove the rubber padding by carefully peeling it away from the lower clamp. Beneath the rubber
padding is the Allen head screw which secures the lower clamp to the standard clamp adjustment
knob.
2. Use the supplied Allen wrench to remove both the Allen head screw and the washer. Remove the
lower clamp from the standard clamp adjustment knob.
3. Remove the standard clamp adjustment knob by turning it counterclockwise.
4. Install the short clamp adjustment knob by turning it clockwise until it protrudes through the clamp
frame.
5. Insert the washer and Allen head screw into the lower clamp. Place the lower clamp onto the end of
the short clamp adjustment knob and tighten.
6. Replace the rubber padding.
Verify that the fl at, smooth end of the lower clamp points outward toward the clamp
opening and that the pointed end faces the clamp frame.
If you intend to use the GPSMAP 196 primarily in an aircraft, Garmin recommends that the cigarette
lighter cable (or any optional power/data cable) be secured with the cable clamp located along the top
of the yoke mount. The clamp prevents the cable from dangling and becoming a nuisance - or even a
potential hazard - in the cockpit.
To secure a cable along the top of the yoke mount:
1. Remove the two cable clamp screws and lift the clamp up and away from the yoke mount.
2. Place the cable along the top of the yoke mount, place the cable clamp over the cable and secure it on
the yoke mount us ing the two cable clamp screws.
