When selecting a mounting location, observe these considerations.

• The device must be mounted in a location where there is at least 25 mm (1 in.) of clearance behind the mounting surface and you can access the connection after it is mounted.

• When drilling pilot holes, use the device to mark the pilot holes only. Do not drill through the device.

• If you want to mount the device outside the boat, it must be mounted in a location well above the waterline, where it is not submerged.

• If you want to mount the device outside the boat, it should be mounted in a location where it will not be damaged by a docks, pilings, or other pieces of equipment.
