Transom Mount Bracket in Released Position
Suggested materials required for installation:
♦
Variable speed electric drill with a chuck
capacity of 10mm (3/8") or larger.
♦
Hole saw or spade bit 19 mm (7/8") for
transom hole to route cable and
connector
♦
Chamfer bit or 6 mm (1/4") drill bit
♦
Drill bit No. 28 or 4 mm (9/64")
♦
Drill bit 3 mm (7/64")
♦
Marine bedding/sealing compound
3) The transducer must always remain submerged,
regardless of the speed of the boat and should not be
mounted where it could be damaged by underwater
obstacles .
4) DO NOT locate the transducer in the extreme bow of the
boat where it will be subject to intense turbulence as the boat
pounds through the water.
9-pin
Female 5) DO NOT locate the transducer directly behind any hull
protrusion which will cause turbulence at the transducer or
which will obstruct the transducer's forward looking view.
For displacement-hull power and sail boats, the thru-hull
installation is usually required.
DANGER: DO NOT allow any solvents, i.e. gasoline,
acetone, to come in contact with the transducer or head unit
as this may dissolve the plastic material. In addition, DO
NOT force the cable by pulling on it. This may cause
damage to the internal transducer wiring.
Note: Will
Transom Transducer Kick-Up Bracket
not work at
speeds above The transom transducer is attached to the boat with a heavy-
duty stainless steel kick-up bracket to provide protection
35 MPH
against impact. When the transducer strikes an object, or the
water force exceeds the resistance of the bracket, the
transducer automatically kicks up and becomes non-
operational. The bracket does not automatically reset at
lower speeds. The transducer must be manually returned to
its operational position.
The transducer is designed to kick up at speeds between 35
and 40MPH (30-35 knots). We do not recommend transom
mount transducers on boats that regularly exceed 35MPH
(30 knots). Boats that exceed 40MPH (35knots) cannot use
transom mounted transducers, but instead must use thru-hull
transducers.
Special Note: The kick-up feature is designed as a safety
consideration to prevent the transducer from being removed
from the boat due to impact or excessive speed. The kick-up
bracket is not designed for repeated kick-up or to be pulled
up manually during loading and unloading from boat trailers.
Tests have shown that the bracket can kick-up as many as 30
times before there is a negative effect on the bracket.
Repeated kick-up will cause the transducer to kick-up at
progressively lower speeds. Excessive kick-ups can cause
the transducer bracket to fail. Brackets that fail due to
repeated kick-up are not covered under the transducer
warranty.
