Installation

Placement
Always place the panel in such a place that the skipper has a good
view of it.
When the panel is installed low in the cockpit, place the panel in such
a way that no damage can be caused to the key (e.g. by feet).
Please note that the panel is only waterproof on the control side. The
back of the motor panel should be installed in a well protected and
ventilated area. Do not install the panel in a place where strong vibra-
tions could occur.
The panel must be placed in a flat plate.
• Make a hole of the correct size and fit the panel. Make sure the
gasket is properly positioned between the engine panel and the
bulkhead.
