TRANSDUCER INSTALLATION
Some X-65s are packed with a HS-WSBK transom mount transducer. It
can be installed on any outboard or stern-drive (inboard\outboard) pow-
ered boat. It can also be permanently installed inside the boat to "shoot-
through" the hull on some fiberglass boats.
The “kick-up” mounting bracket helps prevent damage if the transducer
strikes an object while the boat is moving. If the transducer does “kick-
up”, the bracket can easily be pushed back in place without tools.
Read the transducer's installation manual carefully before attempting
the installation. Determine which of the mounting positions is right for
your boat. Use extreme care if mounting the transducer inside the hull,
since once it is epoxied into position, the transducer usually can't be
removed without damaging it. Remember, the transducer location is the
most critical part of a sonar installation. If it isn't done properly, the
sonar can't perform to its designed potential.
