Flush Mounting the GPSMAP 6000/7000 Series Chartplotter
Hardware (included):
• Flush-mount template
• Rubber gasket
• Four flush-mount nut-plates
• Four 60 mm M3 × 0.5 screws (to secure the nut plate to the
mounting surface)
• Four M4 × 0.7 screws (to secure the chartplotter to the nut plate)
• Four 7 mm nylon washers (for the M4 × 0.7 screws)
1. The flush-mount template is included in the product box. Trim the template and ensure that it will fit in the location at which you want to flush
mount the chartplotter.
NotES:
• Ensure that the surface on which you mount the chartplotter has enough open space behind it to accommodate the chartplotter and the
connected wires. Refer to the diagram on the flush-mount template for the clearance-space needed by your chartplotter.
• Ensure that there is at least
flush-mount template.
• Ensure that enough ventilation is present behind the mounting surface to create sufficient air flow to prevent the chartplotter from
overheating.
• To avoid interference, mount GPSMAP 6008/6208 chartplotters 15 in. (38.1 cm), GPSMAP 6012/6212 chartplotters 16 in. (40.6 cm),
GPSMAP 7012/7212 chartplotters 25 in. (63.5 cm) and 7015/7215 chartplotters 17 in. (43.2 cm) from a magnetic compass.
2. The flush-mount template has adhesive on the back. Remove the protective liner and apply the template to the location at which you want to
flush mount the chartplotter.
3. Using a

surface.
4. Using a jigsaw, cut the mounting surface along the inside of the solid line indicated on the flush-mount 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 and
the mounting holes.
5. Place the chartplotter in the hole and ensure that the mounting holes on the chartplotter line up with the larger
flush-mount template after cutting, sanding, and filing the hole. If they do not line up, mark new locations for the larger holes.

10. R emove the flush-mount template from the mounting surface.
11. S tarting in one corner of the mounting location, place a nut plate on the back of the mounting
surface, lining up the large and small holes. The raised portion of the nut plate should fit into
the larger hole.
