Installation Tips Installing Handset Connector Installing Microphone Clip Plate
Installing Remote SpeakerWiring Hailer Connector
Mount the handset near the mounted
connector allowing a drip loop in the MIKE
cord. Be sure there is about 2” of vertical
clearance to allow the handset to be easily
lifted off and returned to the clip plate.
Place the clip plate on the dash with the
magnetic sensor toward the rear. Using the clip
plate as a guide, mark the 2 holes.
Use a 1/8” drill. Mount the clip plate with the 2
screws provided.
Mount the handset connector.

Find a location for the Handset connector near
the vessel steering wheel and check that there is
enough wire length to reach the remote speaker
location. Stretch the mike cord to be sure the
handset is comfortable to use while driving.
Using the black metal plate as a guide, mark the
center of the hole to be drilled.
Use a 1” hole saw to cut out the dash.
Leaving the small rubber gasket on the backside
of the connector, push it through the D hole
in the plate. Put the rubber dust cap over the
connector shaft and tighten the nylon nut.
Hold the plate & connector assembly to the dash
and mark the 3 holes. Use a 1/8” drill. Mount the
plate with the 3 screws provided.
Connect the handset connector.
When removed, be sure to cover the connector
with the provided dust cap.

Check that the location of the powerful 20W
4 Ohm HAILER HORN (not provided) does not
effect the ship’s compass before drilling holes
and mounting. The Horn needs a clear view of
the bow of the boat so the FOG and PA signals
can be heard well by other vessels.
Run 2 #20 AWG wires from the horn to the Box
and connect to the HAILER connector wires.
Follow the wire colors on the front of this sheet
and crimp to the HAILER connector assembly
wiring.
CAUTION
NOTE: DO NOT GROUND EITHER SIDE OF THE
HAILER WIRES.

2.
Check the location does not effect the ship’s
compass before drilling any holes.
Using the template provided, use the 1-1/4”
hole saw to cut out the 4 corners.
Use the sabre saw to trim the remaining inside
of the speaker cutout.
Use the 1/8” drill bit for the 4 side mounting
holes.
Mount the speaker with supplied gasket from
the front and hook up the connectors.. No
need to get behind the panel.
Put the 4 speaker clips on the speaker to cover
up the mounting holes for a professional look.

Speaker is at least
45cms (1.5') from
the compass
Black Box Radio must
be at least 1metre (3’)
from the Antenna
Location Requirements - Please check these before doing
any cutting or drilling.
Ensure that the chosen location:
• is at least one metre (3') from the antenna
• allows easy connection to (at least) a 10 Amp fused 12V
only DC electrical source and the antenna.
• is at least 45cms (1.5') from the compass to avoid
creating magnetic deviation of the compass during radio
operation
• has a suitable space close by for installing the
microphone bulkhead mount
• provides easy access to the front panel controls
• provides reasonable access to the wiring at the back of
the radio.
