3. Category I bracket
The SeaShelter3™ Category I bracket has five pre-drilled screw holes to use
for securing the bracket to a flat surface. Remove the SeaShelter3™ lid by
turning the spring loaded knob on the lid 1/4 t urn counterclockwise and pull.
The lid will lift awa y from the top of the base and disengage at the bottom of
the base. The lid is tethered to the base to help prevent loss. Pull the beacon
with stead y pressure from the bracket. It is not necessary to remove the
HydroFix™ Hydrostatic Release Unit (HRU) to mount the brac ket using four
of the holes. For extreme conditions a fifth hole is available when the
HydroFix is removed and the ejector spring is deployed. The bracket can be
held in place to mark the placement of the screw holes or you can use the
mounting template provided. The use of #10 pan head stainless steel
fasteners (minimum of ½” long) and ½” washers (not included) is
recommended. Make sure that fasteners will not contact any wires or
plumbing before drilling pilot holes.
CAUTION: Keep this beacon a safe distance away from all
magnetic sources. Magnet safe distance is 4.6ft. or 1.4m, including
the distance from stereo speakers.
