Installation
Mounting location
Choose the mounting locations carefully before you drill or cut. The
unit should be mounted so that the operator can easily use the
controls and clearly see the screen.
The unit has a high-contrast screen and is viewable in direct
sunlight, but for best results install the unit out of direct sunlight.
The chosen location should have minimal glare from windows or
bright objects.
Ensure that any holes cut are in a safe position and will not weaken
the boat’s structure. If in doubt, consult a qualified boat builder, or
marine electronics installer.
Before cutting a hole in a panel, make sure that there are no hidden
electrical wires or other parts behind the panel.
Check that it is possible to route cables to the intended mounting
location.
Consider access to the card reader which is located in the back of
the unit.
Leave sufficient clearance to connect all relevant cables.
Do not mount any part where it can be used as a hand hold, where
it might be submerged, or where it will interfere with the operation,
launching, or retrieving of the boat.
The mounting location may affect the internal GPS receiver. Test the
unit in its intended location to ensure satisfactory reception. An
external GPS source can be added to overcome poor reception
areas.
For overall width and height requirements, refer to "Dimensional
drawings" on page 75.
Good ventilation is required. Choose a location that will not expose
the unit to conditions that exceed the specifications - refer to
"Technicalspecifications" on page 73.

Installation | GO XSE Installation Manual 17

Warning: When installing, ensure appropriate safety
equipment is used. For example, ear muffs, protective
glasses, gloves and a dust mask. Power tools may
exceed safe noise levels, and can cast off dangerous
projectiles. The dust from many materials commonly
used in boat construction may cause irritation or
damage to eyes, skin, and lungs.
Bracket mounting
Quick release bracket mounting
The GO5 XSE can be mounted with the quick release bracket.
1. Place the bracket in the desired mounting location. Ensure that
the chosen location has enough height to accommodate the
unit fitted in the bracket, allows tilting of the unit and
connecting cables in the back.
ÚNote: Ensure that the chosen location has enough height to
accommodate the unit fitted in the bracket, allows tilting of the
unit and connecting cables in the back.
2. Mark the screw locations using the bracket as a template, and
drill pilot holes.
ÚNote: Use fasteners suited to the mounting surface material. If
the material is too thin for self-tappers, reinforce it, or mount
the bracket with machine screws and large washers. Use only
304 or 316 stainless steel fasteners.
3. Screw down the bracket.
4. Snap the unit to the bracket.

5. Tilt the unit to the desired position angle.
Removing the unit from the quick release bracket
Pull and hold the release handle and then pull the unit from the
bracket.
U-bracket mounting
The GO7 XSE and GO9 XSE can be mounted with the U-bracket.
Installation | GO XSE Installation Manual 19

1. Place the bracket in the desired mounting location. Ensure that
the chosen location has enough height to accommodate the
unit fitted in the bracket, and allows tilting of the unit. Also
adequate space is required on both sides to allow tightening
and loosening of the knobs.
2. Mark the screw locations using the bracket as a template, and
drill pilot holes. Use fasteners suited to the mounting surface
material. If the material is too thin for self-tappers, reinforce it, or
mount the bracket with machine screws and large washers. Use
only 304 or 316 stainless steel fasteners.
3. Screw down the bracket.
4. Mount the unit to the bracket using the knobs. Hand tighten
only. The ratchet teeth in the bracket and unit case ensure a
positive grip and prevent the unit from changing from the
desired angle.
Panel mounting
The screws and gasket used for panel mounting are included in the
box. For mounting instructions, refer to the Panel mounting
template.
