Front view (left) and side view (right) showing dimensions of the
X37TX and X47TX when mounted on quick release bracket. The swivel
base (not shown) adds 0.4" (10 mm) to the height. The swivel base
width is 4.25" (10.7 cm) and the depth is 3.12" (79.47 mm).
Holes in the bracket’s base allow wood screw or through-bolt mounting.
You may need to place a piece of plywood on the back side of thin
panels to reinforce the panel and secure the mounting hardware.
Drill a 5/8" (15.9 mm) hole in the dash for the power/transducer cable.
The best location for this hole is immediately under the bracket
location. This way, the bracket can be installed so that it covers the
hole, holds the cable in position and results in a neat installation. Some
customers, however, prefer to mount the bracket to the side of the cable
hole — it's a matter of personal preference. After drilling the hole, pass
the connector up through the hole from under the dash.
If you wish, you can fill in the hole around the cable with a good marine
sealant/adhesive compound. (Some marine dealers stock cable hole
covers to conceal the opening.) No matter what type of installation you
prefer, be sure to leave enough slack in the cable to allow tilting or
swiveling the unit.
These units use a quick release mounting bracket with a swivel base.
When you run the cable through the hole, make sure you allow enough
slack for tilting and turning the unit and attaching the connector. (The
snug fit of the push-on waterproof connector requires some force to
attach.)
