INSTALLATION

2.3 Assembling and positioning

1. Insert the top of the transducer's mounting arms into the
slots on the top back of the bracket. Rotate the bracket down
until the bottom snaps onto the transducer.
2. Cut-out the template printed on last page. At the location
selected, position the template so that the arrow at the bottom
is aligned with the bottom edge of the transom. Being sure
the template is parallel to the water, tape it in place (see
Figure 2).
Note: On aluminium hulls, position the arrow tip 6 mm (1/4")
below the hull bottom.

2.4 Mounting and adjusting

Caution! Always wear safety goggles
and a dust mask.
1. Using a 4 mm (9/64") drill bit to drill
two holes 22 mm (7/8") deep at the
location indicated. To prevent drilling too
deeply, wrap masking tape around the
drill bit 22 mm (7/8") from the point.
Note! To minimise surface cracking on
Fiberglas hulls, chamfer the gelcoat. If a
chamfer bit is not available, start drilling
with a 6 mm (1/4") drill bit to a depth of 1
mm (1/16").
2. Position the transducer at the selected
location. Using a straight edge, sight the
underside of the transducer relative to
the underside of the hull. The stern of the
transducer should be 1-3 mm (1/16-1/8")
below the bow of the transducer or
parallel to the bottom of the hull. To be
sure your transducer is angled correctly,
compare it to Figure 3.
The bracket is designed for a standard
13° angle transom. To adjust the
