1. Unplug the other end of the transducer cable from the control head. Make sure
that the cable is long enough to accommodate the planned route by running the
cable over the transom.
CAUTION! Do not cut or shorten the transducer cable, and try not to damage the cable
insulation. Route the cable as far as possible from any VHF radio antenna cables or
tachometer cables to reduce the possibility of interference. If the cable is too short,
extension cables are available to extend the transducer cable up to a total of 50'. For
assistance, contact the Customer Resource Center at www.humminbird.com or call
1-800-633-1468 for more information.
NOTE: The transducer can pivot up to 90 degrees in the bracket. Allow enough slack in the
cable for this movement. It is best to route the cable to the side of the transducer so the
transducer will not damage the cable during movement.
2a. If you are routing the cable over the transom of the
boat, secure the cable by attaching the cable clamp to
the transom, drilling 9/64" diameter holes for
#8 x 5/8" wood screws, then skip directly to procedure
5, Connecting the Cable.
2b. If you will be routing the cable through a hole in the
transom, drill a 5/8" diameter hole above the
waterline. Route the cable through this hole, then
fill the hole with marine-grade silicone sealant and
proceed to the next step immediately (see the
illustration Routing the Cable).
3. Place the escutcheon plate over the cable hole and
use it as a guide to mark the two escutcheon plate
mounting holes. Remove the plate, drill two 9/64"
diameter x 5/8" deep holes, and then fill both holes
with marine-grade silicone sealant. Place the
escutcheon plate over the cable hole and attach with
two #8 x 5/8" wood screws.
4. Route and secure the cable by attaching the cable
clamp to the transom; drill one 9/64" diameter x 5/8"
deep hole, then fill hole with marine-grade silicone
sealant, then attach the cable clamp using a
#8 x 5/8" screw.
