  1. Mark the cutout line on the mounting surface, as identified on the supplied mounting template.
  2. Use a drill and an appropriate size drill bit or hole cutter to cut out the corners of the Cutout line.

    The corner diameters for the displays are:

    • 20.00 mm (0.79 in) — 7” and 12” displays.

    • 24.00 mm (0.94 in) — 9” displays.

  3. Use a jigsaw or similar cutting tool to cut out the remainder of the cutout area.
  4. Use a half round file and/or sandpaper to smooth and rough edges or burs on the cutout hole.
