2. Hold the template on the transom of the boat in the location where
the transducer will be installed. Align the template vertically,
matching the lower edge of the transom with the bottom corner of
the template. If your propeller moves clockwise as the boat moves
forward, mount the transducer on the starboard side, and use the
bottom left corner of the template. If your propeller moves counter-
clockwise as the boat moves forward, mount the transducer on the
port side, and use the bottom right corner of the template.
3. Using a pencil or punch, mark the three mounting holes on the
transom. Do not mark or drill any other holes at this time.
4. Using a 5/32" (4.0 mm) bit, drill the three holes to a depth of
approximately 1" (25 mm). On fiberglass hulls, it is best to use
progressively larger drill bits to reduce the chance of chipping or
flaking the outer coating. Use a marine-grade silicone sealant to fill
the drilled holes.
5. Align the metal mounting bracket with the mounting holes. The center
slot should be above the two outer slots. (This bracket and all other
hardware supplied is top quality stainless steel for maximum strength
and corrosion protection.) Insert the three 1" (25 mm) flat head wood
screws into the drilled holes, but do not completely tighten.
Attach the pivot to the transducer
1. Attach the pivot to the transducer body, using the two 1/4"-20 x 5/8"
(16 mm) machine screws, toothed washers, and square nuts. The
toothed washers must fit on the inside of the transducer ears,
between the pivot and the ears. The square nuts will be prevented
from rotating by the pocket in the back of the pivot. An Allen wrench
is provided which fits all the 1/4"-20 screws, but do not fully tighten
the screws at this time.
