INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
Refer to the ICON System Quick Connection Guide, P/N 0764953, for ICON System Diagram.
Disconnect the battery cables at the battery. Always disconnect the ground cable first and the positive cable last.
Always test operation once installed.
Failure to install switches properly and to test for proper switch operation after installation can result in the loss of boat control.
Mounting Locations
Select the appropriate mounting locations for switches based on the boat's configuration, side console or center console.
The mounting location must be a flat surface and must be strong enough to provide rigid support. Strengthen mounting surface as necessary.
Place the switch panel at the proposed location and check the clearances around the switches.
ICON start/stop switch kits should be mounted within 30 in. (76 cm) of the remote control due to wire harness length.
ICON master power/key switch kits should be mounted close to the start/stop switch kit.
On second station installations, ICON the second station start/stop switch kit should be mounted close to the second station emergency stop switch kit.
Position the switch panel in a location that allows proper access to the switches. There must be adequate space behind the switch panels for wire and cable routing; and to make switch connections.
Mounting Holes
Select the correct drill template (see pages 15, 17 and 19) to cut the mounting holes for the switch panel.
Make sure the switch panel location has all the required clearances before drilling or cutting.
Protect mounting surfaces from damage while drilling. Apply masking tape to fiberglass surfaces. Use appropriate protection for other surfaces.
Position the template for the switch panel. Use a center punch to mark the drill locations.
Drill a 3/8 in. (9.5 mm) hole at each corner of the shaded area of the template.
Use a reciprocating saw to cut the hole for the switch panel.
Install the switch panel on console.
Drill four (4) 3/32 in. (2.4 mm) holes to mount the switch panel. Secure the switch panel with four screws. Tighten screws securely.
Make sure the switch panel is secured to the console and does not move during operation.
Use tie straps to secure the master power/key switch wiring.
ICON Buss Cables
The ICON System uses ICON buss cables with proprietary 6-pin threaded, Molex-type connectors.
Do not force connectors or locking rings. Properly aligned connectors assemble easily.
Do not use Electrical Grease on ICON buss cable connectors.
To assemble the connectors:
Use the large tabs and small tabs to carefully align buss cable connectors.
Carefully align pins and sockets of connectors. Do NOT force connectors together.
Tighten locking rings of buss connectors finger tight. Do NOT use locking rings to force connectors together.
Do not rotate connectors until they align. This could result in a mismatched connection. It is possible for each pin to enter a socket even if the tabs are misaligned. Look at the tabs to ensure connector alignment prior to making the connection.
