D. Attaching the Transducer to the Transom
1. Adjust the transducer so its face is parallel with the
ground and its center line is even with the bottom of
the boat hull.
2. Hold the transducer and bracket assembly against
the transom. When the transducer and bracket are
properly aligned mark its position on the hull.
3. Drill the mounting holes for the transducer bracket.
Use a #29 bit (for the #10 screws).
Routing cables
When mounting your transducer, make sure to leave some slack
in the cable near the transducer. If you need to drill a hole in the
transom to pass the connector through, the hole size will depend
on the connector on the end of the transducer's cable.
E. Make a test run to determine the results
After the transducer is installed make a test run to ensure the
transducer is installed properly. Use the slots in the transducer
mounting bracket to loosen the screws and slide the transducer up
or down, if adjustments are necessary.
