DROP-IN MOUNT CUT-OUT AND INSTALLATION The joystick and boot must be kept in place by bezel (option 6 & 7). For panel thickness of <3 mm, m3 x 16 countersunk machine screws are recommended. To ensure a good panel seal, gaskets are available as an optional extra. OPTION A MOUNT CUT-OUT AND INSTALLATION When mounted this way the panel acts as the bezel and no separate bezel is needed. M3 machine screws are recommended. OPTION B MOUNT CUT-OUT AND INSTALLATION The joystick flange is mounted beneath the panel and the base of the boot must be brought through the panel cut-out and held in place with the circular bezel (option 4). For panel thicknesses of up to 3 mm, m3 x 16 countersunk machine screws are recommended. NOTES: When sub panel mounting, great care should be taken not to damage the boot, or any of the mechanism under the boot. All panel cut-outs should be free from sharp edges and swarf that may damage the boot. Some handles are larger then the recommended panel cut-out, in which case drop-in mounting must be specified. 2 JOYSTICKS
