Attaching the transducer

1. Clean the transducer face to remove any foreign material. Lightly roughen the

transducer face with #100 sandpaper. Also, roughen the inside of the hull where the

transducer is to be mounted.

2. Warm the silicone sealant to 40°C before usage to soften it. Coat the transducer face

and mounting location with silicone sealant.

3. Press the transducer firmly down on the hull and gently twist it back and forth to remove

any air that may be trapped in the silicone sealant.

Final preparations

Support the transducer with a piece of wood to keep it in place while the adhesive is drying.
