How to attach the sensor to the bracket
1. If the retaining cover near the top of the bracket is closed, open it by depressing
the latch and rotating the cover downward.
2. Insert the sensor's pivot arms into the slots near the top of the bracket.
3. Maintain pressure until the pivot arms click into place.
4. Rotate the sensor downward until the bottom snaps into the bracket.
5. Close the retaining cover to prevent the accidental release of the sensor when
your boat is underway.
How to route the cable
Route the sensor cable over the transom, through a drain hole, or through a new hole
drilled in the transom above the waterline.
Never cut the cable or remote the connector; this will void the warranty. Always wear
safety goggles and a dust mask.
1. If a hole must be drilled, choose a location well above the waterline. Check for ob-
structions such as trim tabs, pumps, or wiring inside the hull. Mark the location
with a pencil. Drill a hole through the transom using a 19 mm or 3/4” bit (to accom-
modate the connector).
2. Route the cable over or through the transom.
3. On the outside of the hull secure the cable against the transom using the cable
clamps. Position a cable clamp 50 mm (2") above the bracket and mark the
mounting hole with a pencil.
4. Position the second cable clamp halfway between the first clamp and the cable
hole. Mark this mounting hole.
5. If a hole has been drilled in the transom, open the appropriate slot in the transom
cable cover. Position the cover over the cable where it enters the hull. Mark the
two mounting holes.
6. At each of the marked locations, use a 3 mm or 1/8” bit to drill a hole 10 mm (3/
8”) deep. The prevent drilling too deeply, wrap masking tape around the bit 10 mm
(3/8”) from the point.
