1. Mount the transducer so that it points straight down and so that the
transducer itself is submerged in the water (see the illustration
Portable Transducer Mount).

2. Adjust the running angle so that the transducer is parallel to and below
the surface of the water (see the illustration Transducer Running Angle).
3. Hand-tighten the wing nut so that the transducer will not rotate.
4. Secure the transducer cable in case
of accidental release when the boat
is moving, since a loose transducer
can cause damage to itself, your
boat, or become tangled in the
propeller. Attach the tie-down strap
to the transducer cable around an
immovable object such as a rail or
fitting,
(see
Transducer Tie-Down Strap).
5. When you have finished using the transducer, unplug the transducer
cable from the transducer jumper port on the base, then coil the cable
around the assembly.
