GEN 2 Series Panel Mount Remote Control Bezel Installation
NOTE: This remote control should be installed on the starboard side only.
IMPORTANT: When selecting the mounting area for the panel mount remote control,
the area located directly behind the mounting panel must have sufficient clearance for
the control module, wiring harness, control cables, and control cable movement. Refer
to the Required Mounting Clearances for GEN 2 Series Panel Mount Controls.
IMPORTANT: Allow sufficient clearance for the control handle movement. Avoid
interference with the boat components or other accessories. Ensure the control handle
clears the dash, seats, steering wheel, and any other obstructions.
BEZEL LOCATION AND DRILLING MOUNTING AREA
IMPORTANT: The mounting surface for the bezel should be a flat and ridged platform,
preferably constructed with one of the following: aluminum, fiberglass, or plywood
reinforced with fiberglass. One layer of vinyl between the bezel and ridged mounting
platform is acceptable. All foam should be removed between the bezel and the ridged
mounting platform. To ensure a robust installation, the mounting platform must not exceed
2.54 cm (1 in.) thickness.
NOTE: The remote control template supplied with this instruction sheet will allow the
installer to rotate and mount the remote control module in 30° increments. Allow for proper
clearance behind the mounting area when selecting the mounting area for the remote
control.
1. Locate the area of the boat where the panel mount remote control is to be mounted.
Allow sufficient clearance for the control handle movement, remote control module,
and control cables behind the mounting area.
2. Use the template supplied with these instructions and place the template over the
mounting platform surface.
3. Secure the template to the mounting platform surface with tape. Cut and drill the
mounting platform surface as instructed on the template.
