II. Horizontal Orientation 2 (for other handheld GPS units
with visual display)
Attach the GPS Bracket (A) similar to Horizontal Orientation 1
but with flanges facing backward (fig. 3). This provides a flat
face. Attach the GPS receiver to the plate. Velcro and cable
ties are included in the package of screws to help facilitate this.
Another option for attaching your GPS receiver would be with a
holder from Ram Mounts Inc. (www.ram-mount.com). They
market holders for a wide variety of GPS receivers from different
manufacturers.

than a Garmin 72.
III. Vertical Orientation (for receivers with
an external GPS antenna)
The GPS Bracket (A) can also be installed in a
vertical orientation. This is ideal for GPS re-
ceivers that have an external GPS antenna.
The shape of the bracket is such that, when
the bracket is attached vertically, the flanges
will be level with the ground. There are two
different hole sizes (7mm and 16mm) available
to accommodate different size antennas. Fig-
ure 4 shows the bracket installed with the
smaller hole at the top.
