Transducer Installation

There are three different installation methods for your transducer:

• Transom Transducer

• Inside the Hull Transducer

• Trolling Motor Transducer.

Find the section that describes the method of installation you will be using.

NOTE: If the included transducer will not work for your application, you may
exchange it, NEW and UNASSEMBLED, with mounting hardware included, for a
transducer appropriate for your application - often at very little or no charge,
depending on the transducer. Call the Humminbird® Customer Resource Center
(1-800-633-1468) for details and pricing, or visit www.humminbird.com, Product
Support/Transducer Exchange for more information.

NOTE: Due to the wide variety of hulls, only general instructions are presented
in this installation guide. Each boat hull represents a unique set of requirements
that should be evaluated prior to installation. In addition to the parts supplied,
you will need a hand drill with various bits, a socket wrench (5/16"), a Phillips
head screwdriver, and marine-grade silicone sealant.

NOTE: When drilling holes in fiberglass hulls, it is best to start with a smaller bit
and use progressively larger drill bits to reduce the chance of chipping or flaking
the outer coating. Fill all holes with marine grade silicone sealant.

WARNING: Do not touch an active transducer during operation, as this may
cause physical discomfort and may result in personal injury in the form of tissue
damage. Handle the transducer only when the power to the control head is off.

Transom Transducer Installation

If you will be installing a transom mounted transducer, use the procedures

to install a transom-mounted transducer. They are:

• Determine transducer mounting location

• Mount the bracket to the boat

• Attach the pivot to the transducer

• Mount the transducer pivot assembly to the bracket

• Adjust the running position of the transducer

• Route the transducer cable

• Perform a final test of the transom transducer installation.
