6-3 Mounting and removing the display unit
There are two mounting arrangements:
•Flush mounting requires a solid panel with access behind for wiring and mounting screws. After flush mounting, the FISH 4500/4600 cannot be tilted or moved after installation to reduce any unwanted glare or reflections. Carefully select the best viewing position before installation.This would generally be in a shaded area.
•Bracket mounting requires a panel for mount- ing the bracket. Ensure that the panel is not likely to deform and is not subject to excessive vibration. The bracket can be tilted and rotated so the FISH 4500/4600 can be removed after
each use.
Select a position where the display unit will be:
•At least 4” (100 mm) away from the com- pass.
•At least 12” (300 mm) away from any radio transmitter.
•At least 4 ft. (1.2 m) away from any antenna.
•Easy to read by the helmsman and crew
while underway.
•Protected from physical damage during rough sea passages.
•Easy to access the 12/24VDCpower source.
•Convenient to route the transducer cables.
Flush Mounting

2. Drill four holes for the mounting studs using the flush mount template.
3. Screw the four studs into the brass inserts in the back of the display unit.
4. Sit the display unit in place and fit the washers and nuts to the studs.
