5.Set the gimbal bracket aside and drill the four mounting screw holes using a 5/32" (4.0 mm) drill bit.

6a. If the cables must pass through a hole directly beneath the mounting bracket, mark and drill an additional 1" (25 mm) hole centered between the four mounting holes. Route the cables through the 1" hole. Place the hole cover over the mounting surface

hole, then use it to mark the position of the two mounting screws. Remove the hole cover, drill the two mounting holes using a 9/64" bit. Do not install the hole cover at this time.

6b. If the cables cannot be routed directly beneath the mounting bracket, mark and drill a 1" (25 mm) hole that will allow you to run the cables close to the bracket. Pass the cables through the 1" (25

mm) hole, routing the cables through the grommet and pressing the grommet into place. Place the hole cover over the mounting surface hole, then use it to mark the position of the two mounting screws. Remove the hole cover, drill the two mounting holes using a 9/64" (3.5 mm) bit, fill them with marine-grade silicone, then replace the hole cover and insert the #8 Phillips countersink wood screws. Hand-tighten only.

7.Place the mounting bracket on the mounting surface aligned with the drilled holes and fill the mounting holes with marine grade silicone. Insert the four #10 Slotted-Hex wood screws into the mounting holes. Hand-tighten only.

8.If the cable pass through hole is beneath the mounting bracket, you will need to install the hole cover. Place the hole cover over the mounting bracket cable pass thru hole and align with holes drilled in step 6a. Insert the #8 Phillips countersink wood screws. Hand tighten only.

NOTE: Be sure that the cables pass through the slots on the hole cover and there is enough cable slack to allow for the control head to pivot through its full tilt range. Extra cable slack will also help when connecting/disconnecting the cables.
