DETERMINE THE MOUNTING LOCATION OF POWERBASE
IMPORTANT: Please read through all installation steps prior to any actions to ensure safe
and compliant installation.
a. Utilizing the included mounting
template, identify a location on the
desired mounting surface that is
free of obstructions, and is as close
to level as possible. Take care to
ensure that the length of the pole
attachment is accounted for in
both the stowed and the deployed
position.
i. PowerBase Light: To ensure your navigation light is compliant; orient the
PowerBase unit along the fore and aft centerline of your vessel, so that the unit
stows or deploys towards the bow or the transom of the vessel.
ii. PowerBase Antenna: Orienting the unit further aft on the mounting surface
helps to mitigate any potential whip of the antenna in the
stowed state.
b. With the desired location identified, orient the mounting template so that the
attachment pole clearly stows and deploys towards the bow or the stern, depending
upon desired position.
i. WARNING: Failure to mount in this orientation will result in damage to the
PowerBase unit.
c. Once positioned, use the included mounting template to mark the mounting surface
for the following:
i. 2x Mounting Fastener Holes
ii. 1x Wire-Access Hole
iii. PowerBase Antenna: 1x Coaxial Cord Access Hole
d. Take the black rubber gasket and double check the position of the marked surface
to ensure proper alignment prior to drilling.
e. Remove the gasket, and drill the marked holes utilizing the recommended drill bits
above.
