X58DF sonar unit when mounted on gimbal bracket.
If you wish, you can fill in the hole around the cables with a good ma-
rine caulking 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 cables to allow tilting or swiveling
the unit. If you choose to fill in the hole, be sure to position the cables
against the rear edge of the hole as you apply the fill material.
Before positioning the bracket, be sure to hold the cables against the rear
edge of the hole. Then, slide the bracket over the hole and butt the rear
of the bracket base firmly against the cables, thus pinning them in place
against the side of the hole. Finally, fasten the bracket to the dash.
Attach the unit to the gimbal bracket using the supplied gimbal knobs
and washers. Slide the rubber washers onto the gimbal knobs then
loosely screw the knobs into their sockets. Slide the unit into the
bracket with the rubber washers to the outside of the bracket arms. Tilt
the unit to the desired viewing angle and tighten the knobs finger tight
Portable Sonar Installation

of portable operation by using the optional PPP-10 portable power pack.
