Once you have determined the proper location for the unit, place the
sensor on the transom. The bottom of the bracket should be flush with
the hull's bottom. Using the sensor as a template, mark the hull for the
screw's pilot holes. Drill four 1/8" holes, one in each end of the slots.
Mount the sensor to the hull using #8 stainless steel wood screws (not
included). Use a high quality, marine grade above- or below-waterline
sealant compound to seal the screws. Make sure the sensor is flush with
the bottom of the hull and tighten the screws.

If the base of the transom has a radius, fill the gap between the tran-
som and the sensor with the sealant compound. This will help ensure a
smooth water flow.
Transom
Route the sensor's cable through or over the transom to the sonar unit.
If you need to drill a hole in the transom to pass the connector through,
the required hole size is 5/8".
Caution:
If you drill a hole in the transom for the cable, make sure it is lo-
cated above the waterline. After installation, be sure to seal the
hole with the same marine grade above- or below-waterline seal-
ant used for the screws.
The sensor is now ready for use. Connect the sensor to the accessory
socket on the back of your unit. If you have any questions concerning
the installation of the sensor, please contact your local boat dealer.
