To mount the SILVA C58 compass on your boat or car, you have two options: permanent mounting or detachable mounting.
For permanent mounting:
1. Loosen the bracket from the compass using the two shaft screws.
2. Mount the bracket on a suitable position using two non-magnetic brass screws.
3. Mount the compass onto the bracket using the two shaft screws and fix it in the correct reading position.
For detachable mounting:
1. Use the fixing plate and mount it in a suitable position using four non-magnetic brass screws.
2. Slide the compass onto the fixing plate.
3. Adjust and fix the compass in the correct reading position using the two shaft screws.
- Note: Extra fitting plates are available for multiple mounting positions.
It is important to ensure that the compass is level and aligned parallel with the centerline of your vehicle or boat. For speedboats, it is especially important to mount the compass on a firm base.
