Mount Resource Unit

Clarion's CMS4 black-box resource system has a footprint of 7.5 by 9.75 inches. Utilizing the pigtail cords on the female section of the Molex-style plug, connect the fused yellow cable to a 12-volt DC favorable source of power.

Install Amplifier


We included the compact (3.23-by-7.17- inch) four-channel, 400-watt Clarion XC2410 aquatic Course D amp in order to improve audio, mounting it inside the helm console. Connect the red fused 12-volt DC positive power line straight to the outcome terminal on the battery selector button, and link the black cable to ground, making use of the effectively sized wire for the size of both of these runs.

Establish Display/Controller

The water resistant 4-by-6-inch CMS4 display/controller flush-mounts. Use the offered template and also jigsaw making a cutout at the helm in order to drop in the display screen, after that make use of the supplied brace to protect the system from the behind. Direct the control cable from the back of the display screen (together with the display screen controller USB cord and also video cable television) via the cutout as well as tighten up the two given nuts over mounting studs so about secure the brace.

Install and also Link Audio Speakers

We established 2 sets of Clarion's brand-new CM1623RL high-performance marine coaxial 6.5-inch-diameter audio speakers-- one set in the inwales of the bowrider area and one more in the inwales of the aft cockpit-- marking openings as well as after that cutting all of them using a jigsaw. When the audio speaker holes are definitely cut, run aquatic duplex speaker cord from the resource device to every location, linking the speakers taking advantage of the provided water immune Deutsch port connects.

Protecting Your Outboard From Corrosion

Easy to Follow Steps to Keep Your Outboard Running Smoothly Raritan Engineering Company your   marine hose  specialists would like to share with you these topics we thought would be of interest to you this month regarding protecting your outboard from corrosion. Your outboard continuously draws water in, circulates it around high-heat components to cool them, and then discharges the water. We recommend flushing after use in salty, muddy or contaminated water because deposits can cling to inside passages and break down those surfaces at a molecular level. Plus, flushing helps to prevent clogs that could impede the flow of coolant water. The flushing port on Mercury outboards makes this easy. With the engine off, trim it to the vertical position, attach a freshwater hose, open the spigot halfway and flush for 15 minutes.  I flush my outboard with Star Brite Salt Off after a day on the water. It’s cheap insurance. I do this right away, while the engine’s still hot. Your...
