information.
The 

unit transmits electromagnetic energy. Ensure that the device

 is installed according to the recommendations in these 

instructions and that all personnel are clear of the path of the 

 beam before transmitting. When properly installed and 

operated, the use of this 

device conforms to the requirements of 

ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 Standard for Safety Levels with 

Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency 

Electromagnetic Fields.
When the 

unit is transmitting, do not look directly at the 

antenna at close range; eyes are the most sensitive part of the 

body to electromagnetic energy.
When connecting the power cable, do not remove the in-line 

fuse holder. To prevent the possibility of injury or product 

damage caused by fire or overheating, the appropriate fuse 

must be in place as indicated in the product specifications. In 

addition, connecting the power cable without the appropriate 

fuse in place will void the product warranty.

This device should be used only as a navigational aid. Do not 

attempt to use the device for any purpose requiring precise 

measurement of direction, distance, location, or topography.
Always wear safety goggles, ear protection, and a dust mask 

when drilling, cutting, or sanding.

When drilling or cutting, always check what is on the opposite 

side of the surface.

• It is highly recommended that the device is mounted out of 

range of personnel, with the horizontal beam width above 

head height.

• The device should be mounted high above the ship’s keel 

line with minimal blockage between the vessel and the radar 

beam. Obstructions may cause blind and shadow sectors, or 

generate false echoes. The higher the installation position, 

the farther the radome can detect targets.

• The device should be mounted on a flat surface or a platform 

that is parallel to the vessel's water line and is sturdy enough 

to support the device's weight. The weight for each model is 

listed in the product specifications.

• Most  beams spread vertically 12.5° above 

À

 and 12.5° 

below 

Á

 the 

device's radiating element. On vessels with 

higher bow angles at cruise speed, the installation angle can 

be lowered to point the beam slightly downward to the 

waterline while at rest. Use shims if necessary.

• The 

unit has two mounting options when installed on a 

standard marine mount. One mounting option is closer to the
