Attach the transducer to the transom. Slide the transducer up or down
until it's aligned properly with the bottom of the hull as shown in the
preceding and following figures. Tighten the bracket's mounting
screws, sealing them with the caulking compound.
Adjust the transducer so that it's parallel to the ground and tighten the
nut until it touches the outer washer, then add 1/4 turn. Don't over
tighten the lock nut! If you do, the transducer won't "kick-up" if it
strikes an object in the water.

6. Route the transducer cable through or over the transom to
the sonar unit. Make sure you leave some slack in the cable at the
transducer. If possible, route the transducer cable away from other
wiring. Electrical noise from the engine's wiring, bilge pumps, VHF
radio wires, cables and aerators can be picked up by the sonar. Use
caution when routing the transducer cable around these wires.
WARNING:
Clamp the transducer cable to the transom close to the
transducer. This can prevent the transducer from enter-
ing the boat if it is knocked off at high speed.
