Transom Transducer Installation Overview - Humminbird PiranhaMAX 165 Installation And Operation Manual

Transom Transducer Installation Overview

Following are instructions for transom mount installation. The transom mount
installation provides the least loss of signal since the transducer is mounted
outside the hull. This installation also allows adjustment of both running angle
and depth after the transducer is mounted, which enables you to tune the
installation for best results.
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. It is important to read the instructions
completely and understand the mounting guidelines before beginning installation.
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.
NOTE: If you cannot find a transom mount location that will work for your boat hull, a
different mounting technique or transducer type should be considered. See the FAQ
