Installation Instructions

Important Safety Information

 WARNING

See the 

Important Safety and Product Information

 guide in the 

product box for product warnings and other important 

information.
When connecting the power cable, do not remove the in-line 

fuse holder. To prevent the possibility of injury or product 

damage caused by fire or overheating, the appropriate fuse 

must be in place as indicated in the product specifications. In 

addition, connecting the power cable without the appropriate 

fuse in place voids the product warranty.

 CAUTION

Always wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a dust mask 

when drilling, cutting, or sanding.

NOTICE

When drilling or cutting, always check what is on the opposite 

side of the surface.

To obtain the best performance and to avoid damage to your 

boat, install the device according to these instructions.
Read all installation instructions before proceeding with the 

installation. If you experience difficulty during the installation,

Mounting Considerations

You can mount the device using one of three methods.

Bail mount

: You can mount the device using the bail mount, 

which allows you to tilt the device.

Swivel mount

: You can mount the device using the swivel base 

and bail mount, which allows you to swivel and tilt the device. 

Not available on the ECHOMAP Plus 90 models.

Flush mount

: You can mount the device in the dashboard, 

which provides a more integrated installation.

Before permanently installing any part of your device, you 

should plan the installation by determining the location of the 

various components.
• The mounting location must provide a clear view of the 

screen and access to the keys on the device.

• The mounting location must be sturdy enough to support the 

device and the mount.

• The cables must be long enough to connect the components 

to each other and to power.

• To avoid interference with a magnetic compass, do not install 

the device closer to a compass than the compass-safe 

distance value listed in the product specifications.

Fixed-Bail Mounting the Device

NOTICE

If you are mounting the bracket on fiberglass with screws, it is 

recommended to use a countersink bit to drill a clearance 

counterbore through only the top gel-coat layer. This will help to 

avoid cracking in the gel-coat layer when the screws are 

tightened.
Stainless-steel screws may bind when screwed into fiberglass 

and overtightened. It is recommended to apply an anti-seize 

lubricant on the screws before installing them.

1

Select the mounting hardware appropriate for your mounting 

surface and for the bail-mount bracket.

2

Using the bail-mount bracket as a template, mark the pilot 

holes through the screw holes.

3

Using a drill bit appropriate for the mounting hardware, drill 

the four pilot holes.

4

Using the selected mounting hardware, secure the bail-mount 

bracket to the mounting surface.

5

Install the bail-mount knobs 

À

 on the sides of the cradle.

6

Place the cradle into the bail-mount bracket 

Á

, and tighten 

the bail-mount knobs.

7

Connect each cable to a port on the cradle, using the locking 

bracket or locking rings to secure the cables to the cradle 

(

Installing the Cables and Connectors

, page 2

).

Bail Mounting a Device with a Swivel Base

NOTICE

Only pan-head machine bolts or self-tapping screws should be 

used to secure the swivel base. If you use screws with 

countersunk heads, you may damage the mounting bracket.

Some models have the option of adding a swivel base to the bail 

mount, so you can turn the device for a wider range of viewing 

angles.
