5.8 Finalizing the transducer mounting
After making any necessary adjustments to achieve optimum performance
for your vessel, the transducer installation must be finalized by locking the
transducer's position.
Note:
After you apply marine grade sealant, always allow time for the sealant to
fully cure before returning your vessel to the water.
1. Drill the hole for the final locking screw, taking care not to damage the
mounting bracket.
2. Apply marine grade sealant to the screw thread.
3. Insert and tighten the third 'locking' screw.
4. Carefully remove the 2 x screws in the adjustment slots.
5. Apply marine grade sealant to the screw threads.

6. Re-insert and tighten the screws.
7. Fully tighten the nut and bolt.
Do not exceed a torque of 35 N·m (25.8 lbf·ft). The transducer should not
be easily moveable by hand, and should remain in its normal operating
position when your vessel is underway.
