the  pole  in  the  mount  so  that  the  sonar,  when  set  to  the  ‘home  position,’  points  in  the 

desired direction. 

4.  In order to obtain accurate compass readings, ensure that the arrow on top of the unit is pointed 

parallel

 to the vessel centerline, in the direction of forward travel.
