Mounting the camera
When access is available to the underside of the mounting
surface then use these instructions to mount the camera.
D12859-1
1. Remove the camera’s outer cover.
2. Using the template supplied, mark and drill the holes marked
‘bottom down’.
Mounting holes care points:
• Check the dimensions of any printed template (to ensure
that the template is printed to the correct scale) prior to
drilling any holes.
• Make sure the template is oriented properly relative to the
bow of the vessel. This is affected by whether the camera
is to be mounted ball-up or ball-down.
3. Cut out the hole for the cables to feed through
4. Install the threaded mounting studs into the base of the
camera with thread-locking compound. If required, you can
use studs of a different length to suit your installation.
Tighten the studs to a torque of 9.5 Nm (7 lbs-ft).
5. Install the rubber O-ring in the base of the camera.
6. Attach the grounding strap to the grounding point on the
camera.
7. Place the camera on the mounting surface so the threaded
studs extend through the drilled holes.
8. Make the required cable connections to the camera tails.
9. Secure the camera body to the mounting surface with the
supplied nuts and washers.
Dome capped nuts are provided for a neater solution where
the mounting is exposed to view.
You must ensure a watertight seal. You may use a
marine-grade sealant as an alternative to the mounting
O-ring.

underside of the mounting surface is restricted. Use the
