Features: A universal rail-clamping base, designed to fit round tubing from 3/4 inch to 1-1/4 inch diameter. This rugged base is made from extruded aluminum, an aluminum ball, and includes stainless steel hardware. The Cradle (UN-198) comes with four grip fingers and one stop finger, which are capable of being positioned in any of the eight slots on the body. Rubber pads for the grip fingers and stainless steel hardware are provided. In the short direction, the grip fingers are adjustable from 1-1/2" to 3-1/4", and in the long direction, the grip fingers adjust from 4-1/2" to 5-1/2". For larger devices, the finger may be left out at the top allowing the device to overhang the cradle base. Like our other products, the SH-228 is produced for use in aviation and marine environments where being compass compatible and corrosion resistant are important.

UN-198 Cradle Instructions
UN-198 comes with (1) Cradle Base (A)(4) Grip Fingers (B), (1) Stop Finger (C)

Step 1 Place grip fingers and stop finger as necessary to support and grip your device, taking into consideration wiring, ports and/or buttons. Set the grip fingers about mid-range of the spring travel. If additional holding is needed as if for rough terrain, we recommend securing your device in the cradle with a cable tie or hook and loop strap (our spring fingers are just that-fingers not vices).

Step 2 Lock all fingers in position by tightening the screws with the hex key provided. CAUTION: Over tightening will damage the finger slot.

Step 3 Position the ball base as needed. The ball base will mount to any one of three positions on the back of the cradle base. Note that the ball offset can be rotated to almost any position.

Step 4 Attach the ball base to the cradle base with the screw, washer, and nut sets provided.

Design Notes:

  • Desk Top Cradle – With the ball base attached as shown, this cradle will hold your device upright on your desk top.
  • Pen Holder- The integral spring of the spring fingers is designed to accommodate a pen.
  • Finger Locks- Slots behind each grip pad are designed to receive a penny which rigidly locks the grip finger (if properly adjusted).
  • Storing the hex key- Loosen the 3-prong knob on the Shrimp body and slide the hex key in between the two rubber pads near the bolt, then retighten the knob. CAUTION: The hex key could affect the accuracy of a nearby compass.)

Handlebar Clamp Instructions
UN-105 / SH-174 / SH-228

This handlebar mounting system is rated for devices up to 2 lbs. in continuous use. The clamping base accommodates tubing from ¾” to 1-1/4” diameter. To mount on tubing as large as 1-3/4” diameter, use a 3” long bolt (1/4-20 SAE).

  • For ¾” to 7/8” diameter tubing the clamp base should be inverted as shown in illustration A.

  • Illustration B is recommended for tubing from 7/8” to 1-1/4” diameter tubing. Longer bolts (1-1/2” or 3”) will be necessary for the full range of mounting.

Protective pads are supplied, and should be placed on the clamp or tubing to protect the handlebar.

Bolts: (2) bolts are included with your handlebar clamp, (1) 2-1/4” and (1) 1-1/4”. The 2-1/4” bolt is used on the ball side of the clamp. By substituting a 1-1/2” bolt in place of the 1-1/4” bolt the clamp will accommodate up to 1-1/4” handlebars. To clamp on 1-3/4” tubing, use a 3” bolt on the ball end of the clamp and use the 2-1/4” bolt on the nut end.
