Mounting the radio
Your radio can sit at any angle in the mounting bracket so it can accommodate the best location. First, determine the best
place to mount the radio. For optimum performance, find a location that can:
•
Properly support the weight of the radio, approximately 2.2 pounds or 1.1 kilograms. You may need to use some type of
anchor with the mounting screws to hold the radio, depending on the surface.
•
Keep the battery leads as short as possible.
•
Keep the antenna lead-in wire as short as possible.
•
Allow free air flow around the heat sink on the rear of the radio.
•
Avoid interference with the ship’s compass.
1.
Install the radio into the mounting bracket.
2.
Position the radio into the desired location. Mark the edges of the bracket on the mounting surface.
3.
Remove the mounting bracket drill template from the back of the manual,
and use the template to mark the drill holes on the mounting surface.
4.
Drill the holes for the mounting bracket; be sure to follow any
special requirements of the mounting surface.
5.
Remove the bracket from the radio, and use the mounting
hardware to secure the bracket to the mounting surface.
6.
Install the radio back into the mounting bracket as shown.
using the Flush Mount Bracket
before you start
•
Identify the hardware included with the flush-mount kit:
2 right angle brackets
2 flat brackets
4 stove bolts
2 lock washers
2 washers
2 slotted screws
4 lock nuts
•
Use the proper template or the mounting height and width to cut the determine the size of the hole.
•
Be sure there is enough depth behind your dash for the radio to fit and that you can reach behind the dash to attach the
brackets and screws. (You’ll have to do this from the back, so make sure your hands can fit in the space once the radio
is already in place.)
•
Be sure the power and antenna cables will reach once the radio is mounted.
•
Be sure you use the recommended tools and follow all necessary safety precautions when cutting the hole in your
dash (these will vary depending on the type of material, the thickness, etc.). Contact your boat’s manufacturer or a
professional installer if you aren’t certain.
