4.1.3 MANUAL BRACKET MB5 AND MB4
When the Tron 40S MkII is mounted in the MB5 or MB4 bracket, it will operate as a manual unit. This
bracket is the same as the FB5 and FB4 bracket but does not have the hydrostatic release mechanism.
This bracket is typically used to store the EPIRB inside the wheelhouse or other protected areas of the
ship. When the Tron 40S MkII is mounted in the MB5 or MB4 bracket, it must be manually removed
before any operation can take place, therefore the bracket should be mounted in an easily accessible
place where it can be removed in a hurry in case of an emergency.

MOUNTING THE FB5/MB5/FB4/FBH4/MB4 BRACKETS
See figure 7.8
The bracket is mounted with 4x6mm bolts according to the drawing. Use the bolts supplied with the
bracket. The bracket could be mounted in either a vertical or horizontal position, whichever is the best
regarding maintenance and operation.
