II. Installation Instructions

All instruments can be mounted in one of two ways:

1) Instruments can be screwed in place on a wall or boat bulkhead using the
enclosed screws and mounting template.
a. Poke holes in the indicated drill holes on the paper template

diagram.

b. Place the template on the wall or bulkhead in the place you
want to install the instrument. Tape it to wall if helpful.

c. Use a bubble level along the horizontal dotted line or hang a
plumb line along the vertical dotted line to be sure placement is level.

d. Once correctly positioned, mark the wall through the template
holes with a pencil or screwdriver.

e. Remove the paper from wall and drill pilot holes with a 1/8 inch
or 3.5mm drill bit.

f. Place the black rubber vibration isolation gasket between the
back of the instrument and the boat bulkhead to absorb
vibrations. This mounting gasket also ensures that the
wall/bulkhead is protected from marks.

g. Secure the instrument using a philips head screwdriver and the
stainless steel screws provided.

2) Instrument can be mounted on a wall using the keyhole slot located
on the backside of the instrument. Secure one of the provided screws
partially into the wall in desired location. Place keyhole slot over screw
to hang. (Not recommended for boat mounting.)

III. Care of Instrument Case

e Endurance nish is an ultra hard protective coating that is maintenance
free. It is guaranteed not to tarnish or scratch. Wipe the case with a soft,
absorbent cloth periodically to remove dust and marks. Do not use polishing
compounds. Use Weems & Plath Sure Shine to remove stubborn marks.

IV. Quartz Clock Instructions

1) Turn the fastener of the hinged bezel counter-clockwise to release and open.

2) Insert AA alkaline or lithium battery in back of the clock movement.
Follow the diagram on battery housing to make certain the battery is not put
in backwards. Lithium batteries have longer life and are less prone to leak and
perform better than other batteries in hot and cold environments.*

3) To set the time, advance hour and minute hands by turning the knob on
the back of the movement counter-clockwise. To reverse, turn clockwise.
If the clock is left unattended for long periods of time, the battery should be
removed. Otherwise, it could stop working, become corroded and leak acid
which causes damage to the movement and voids
the warranty.*

* Movement damage caused by battery leakage will void the
warranty.
