Summary of Contents for LEI accessories PD-N

  • Page 1 PT-W PD-N and PD-W and PD-WBK PD-WBK PT-W, PD-W, PD-WBK, PD-N and PD-NBK TRANSDUCERS INSTALLATION MANUAL...
  • Page 2 When the transducer is mounted on the outside of the hull, periodi- cally wash the transducer’s face with soap and water to remove any oil film that may collect. Oil and dirt on the face will reduce the sensitivity or may even prevent operation.
  • Page 3 This allows the transducer a good chance to be in smooth water at all times. Tie the lanyard to the boat. This will prevent the loss of the transducer if the suction cup comes loose. Route the transducer cable to the sonar unit.
  • Page 4 Location - General 1. The transducer must be placed in a location that has a smooth flow of water at all times. If the transducer is to be mounted inside the hull, then the chosen location must be in the water at all times. If the transducer is not placed in a smooth flow of water, interference will show on the sonar’s display in the form of random lines or dots...
  • Page 5 Removing the inner layer of fiberglass and the balsa wood core exposes the outer layer of fiberglass. The transducer can then be epoxied directly to the outer layer of fiber- glass. Epoxy is poured into the hole and the transducer is then placed into the epoxy.
  • Page 6: Shoot-Thru-Hull Installation

    1. Dry the chosen area thoroughly, then sand both the inside surface of the hull and the face of the transducer with 100 grit sandpaper. The surface of the hull must be flat so the entire transducer face is in contact with the hull prior to bonding.
  • Page 7 Do not mix it too fast, as it will cause bubbles to form in the epoxy. Apply a small amount on the entire face of the transducer, then pour 1/16" level into the area contained by the dam. Place the transducer into the epoxy, twisting and turning it to force any air bubbles out from under the transducer face.
  • Page 8 TRANSDUCER TRANSDUCER Trolling Motor Mount - PD-W Only The top of the transducer is curved to fit the contour of the motor on electric trolling motors. Attach it using a automotive hose clamp avail- able at any auto parts store.
