4. Tilt the cover down to about 45°, and slide the brace on the bottom of the cover out of
its clip.
This will separate two pairs of magnets, so you will feel some resistance at first.
Cover Installation
The covers can be installed in the reverse of the order in which they are listed above.
l
The front upper and rear outer covers must be installed first and second.
l
The access panel must wait for the left side cover.
Bumper Cover
This is the only cover that requires tools to install.
1. Place the cover on the bumper.
It is held on with magnets, as well as screws.
2. Install the screws, removed during the cover removal, at the sides of the cover.
Front Upper Cover
1. Grip the cover at the two outer edges.
2. Align the bottom edge of the cover so it slides under the chassis support.
3. Tilt the top of the cover into position.
Rear Outer Cover
This cover houses the four rear sonar units, which must be reconnected once the metal brace
across the bottom is in the clip just below the battery access hole.
1. Slide the metal brace into the clip in the chassis.
Watch the two magnets on the bottom of the cover, to align them with their mating mag-
nets on the chassis. This is your best guide for getting this cover in its proper place.
These are inboard of the clip holding the brace, so you will have to look on each side of
the cover to check their alignment.
2. When the magnets at the bottom are lined up, tilt the cover up to within a few inches of
the chassis.
3. Pull the sonar connectors out of the chassis, if they are not already out.
4. Screw the four sonar connectors to their corresponding sonar leads.
Ensure that the labels for the connectors and leads match.
5. Tuck the connectors into the four holes in the chassis, until just an inch of sonar lead is
sticking out.
6. Tilt the top of the cover up to meet the chassis.
