3.2 Instrucións de montaxe
- Identify a suitable location on your boat's dashboard or panel for the speedometer.
- Using a hole saw, create a 3 1/4 inch (8.26 cm) diameter cutout at the chosen location.

3.3 Electrical and Pitot Connections
The speedometer has (2) male spade terminals for electrical connections and (1) pitot connection for speed sensing.
- Connect the positive (+) 12V DC power wire to one of the male spade terminals.
- Connect the negative (-) ground wire to the other male spade terminal.
- Connect the pitot tube from your boat's pitot pickup to the pitot connection on the back of the speedometer. Ensure the tube is free of kinks and blockages.

4. Instrucións de funcionamento
4.1 Funcionamento básico
Once properly installed and connected, the speedometer will display your boat's speed in miles per hour (MPH) as water flows through the pitot tube. The gauge is halogen-illuminated for visibility in various lighting conditions.
- Turn on your boat's ignition or accessory power to activate the speedometer.
- As the boat moves through the water, the pitot tube will sense the water pressure, which is then translated into a speed reading on the gauge.
- The white needle indicates the current speed, while the blue and white graphics provide clear numerical readings.
4.2 Pitot System Functionality
The speedometer relies on a pitot tube system, which measures dynamic pressure created by the boat's movement through water. This pressure is transmitted via a hose to the speedometer, where it moves a diaphragm connected to the needle mechanism. Ensure your pitot tube is clear of debris and properly positioned for accurate readings.
5. Mantemento
5.1 Limpeza e coidado
To maintain the appearance and functionality of your speedometer:
- Clean the gauge face and bezel with a soft, damp pano. Evite produtos de limpeza abrasivos ou solventes.
- Periodically check the pitot tube for blockages (e.g., marine growth, debris) and clear them as necessary.
- Inspect electrical connections for corrosion or looseness and address them promptly.
