INSTALL THE MONITOR The PathPilot controller mount allows you to install the PathPilot controller behind the monitor (which is attached to the Controller Arm).

Note: If you're using a Touch Screen Kit (PN 35575), you must first remove the stock mounting bracket from the back of the monitor.

1. Put the PathPilot controller mount against the monitor mounting plate. Then, put the monitor on the other side of the PathPilot controller mount, and align the holes on the three components. 2. Attach the monitor, PathPilot controller mount, and monitor mounting plate together with four M4 × 12 mm socket head cap screws (provided with the PathPilot controller mount).
