Mounting the scanner
Use the supplied mounting template and tape it securely to the chosen location site.
Before drilling, check that:
• you have oriented the mounting template correctly so that the front of the scanner unit will
face the front of the vessel
• the location site is not more than 18 mm (0.7”) thick. If the location site is thicker use longer
bolts
• the four bolts supplied are M8 x 30 mm. If you need to use longer bolts make sure they are
marine grade stainless steel and allow for minimum of 8 mm (0.3”) and maximum of 18 mm
(0.7”) of thread contact.
1. Use a 9.5 mm (3/8”) drill bit to drill the four holes where shown on the mounting template.
2. Remove the mounting template.
3. Connect the scanner interconnection cable (see “Connect interconnection cable to the scanner” on
page 14 )
4. Route the connection cable through the cable retention channel.
5. Position the scanner carefully over the bolt holes so that they are aligned.
6. Place a lock washer and a plain washer onto each bolt, as shown.
7. Insert bolt into drill hole and locate into scanners threaded mounting holes and tighten securely.
 Note: The torque settings for the mounting bolts are 12 Nm – 18 Nm (8.9 lb ft – 13.3 lb ft)
