Flush Mounting the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C
Tools
• Flush Mount Template
• Jig saw
• Masking tape
• Scissors
• Drill
• Drill bits—1/8" (3 mm) and 3/8" (6 mm)
• 1/16" (2 mm) Allen (Hex) wrench
• Sockets or wrenches
• Hammer
• Center punch
To flush mount the GPSMAP 3006C/3010C:
1. Trim the Flush Mount Template, and tape it in the location you want.
2. Using the center punch, indent the center of each mounting hole location.
"
3. Using an 1/8
(3 mm) drill bit, drill the four mounting holes.
"
4. Using a 3/8
(6 mm) drill bit, drill a hole to begin cutting the mounting surface.
5. Using the jig saw, cut the mounting surface along the inside of the dashed line indicated on the template. Use a file and sandpaper to
refine the size of the hole. Be very careful when cutting this hole. There is only a small amount of clearance between the case
molding and the mounting holes.
6. Install the four mounting studs into the unit by screwing the shorter, threaded section into the back of the unit. Use a 1/16
Allen wrench to tighten the mounting studs until the stop contacts the case. Be careful not to overtighten as this may damage the
mounting stud! The studs have a reusable thread-locking patch
pre-applied from the factory.
7. Place the unit into the cut-out of the mounting surface.
8. Place washers over the mounting studs, then thread on one hex
nut per mounting stud. Tighten all four until the unit is snug against
the mounting surface. Install and tighten the second hex nut set on
all four mounting studs to lock the first set in place.
