If possible, route the transducer cable away from other wiring on the

boat. Electrical noise from engine wiring, bilge pumps, and areators can
be displayed on the sonar’s screen. Use caution when routing the trans-
ducer cable around these wires.

2. Slide the transducer between the two ratchets. Temporally slide the

bolt though the transducer assembly and hold it against the transom.
Looking at the transducer from the side, check to see if it will adjust so
that its face is parallel to the ground. If it does, then the “A” position is
correct for your hull. If the transducer’s face isn’t parallel with the ground,

Transducer Assembly and Mounting
The best way to install this transducer is to loosely assemble all of the
parts first, then place the transducer’s bracket against the transom and
see if you can move the transducer so that it’s parallel with the ground.

1. Press the two small plastic ratchets into the sides of the metal bracket

as shown below. Notice there are letters molded into each ratchet.
Place each ratchet into the bracket with the letter “A” aligned with the
dot stamped into the metal bracket. This position sets the transducer’s
coarse angle adjustment for a fourteen (14) degree transom. Most
outboard and stern-drive transoms have a fourteen degree angle.

CAUTION!

CLAMP THE TRANSDUCER CABLE TO

TRANSOM NEAR THE TRANSDUCER. THIS

WILL HELP PREVENT THE TRANSDUCER

FROM ENTERING THE BOAT IF IT IS

KNOCKED OFF AT HIGH SPEED.
