6)
Install and tighten bronze hex nut (allow for
swelling in wooden hulls). Do not over-tighten
nut.
7)
Remove excess sealant from the outside to as-
sure smooth water flow over the transducer.
8)
Route the cables back to the PC/180 Acoustic
Interface Box. If possible, avoid running the
cables alongside of antenna cables or other sen-
sitive wiring.
If you need longer transducer cable lengths,
purchase the optional 30' extension cables
(Interphase Part #04-0014-008). Three exten-
sion cables will be required.
IMPORTANT NOTE
If the boat is kept in saltwater it is
recommended that the transducer be coated
with an anti-fouling paint. USE ONLY
WATER BASED ANTI-FOULING PAINT.
DO NOT USE KETONE-BASED PAINTS.
Ketone-based anti-fouling paint will attack the
plastic materials used in the transducer.
Completed Installation
View From Front of Vessel Looking Aft.
WARNING
Be sure to check for leaks when the boat is
placed in the water. Allow at least 24 hours
after installation for any leak to appear.
WARNING
Wood hulls will expand after the boat is put
back into the water, so it is important that, if
you have a wood hull, the transducer be only
hand-tightened until the wood fully expands.
Otherwise the wood fairing block may crack.
