Read these instructions carefully before attempting the installation.

Determine which of the mounting positions is right for your boat. Re-

member, the transducer installation is the most critical part of

a sonar installation.

NOTE:

The following installation types also call for these recommended

tools and required supplies that you must provide (supplies listed

here are not included):

Single-frequency transom installations

Tools include: two adjustable wrenches, drill, #29 (0.136") drill bit, flat-

head screwdriver. Supplies: high quality, marine grade above- or below-

waterline sealant/adhesive compound.

Dual-frequency transom installations

Tools: two adjustable wrenches, drill, #20 (0.161") drill bit, flat-head

screwdriver. Supplies: four, 1" long, #12 stainless steel slotted wood

screws, high quality, marine grade above- or below-waterline seal-

ant/adhesive compound.

Single-frequency trolling motor installations

Tools: two adjustable wrenches, flat-head screwdriver. Supplies: plastic

cable ties.

Shoot-through hull installations

Tools: these will vary depending on your hull's composition. Consult your

boat dealer or manufacturer. Other tools are a wooden craft stick or

similar tool for stirring and applying epoxy, and a paper plate or piece

of cardboard to mix the epoxy on. Supplies: rubbing alcohol, 100 grit

sandpaper, specially formulated epoxy adhesive available from LEI (see

ordering information on the inside back cover). A sandwich hull also

requires polyester resin.

Selecting a Transducer Location

1. The location must be in the water at all times, at all operating speeds.

2. The transducer must be placed in a location that has a smooth flow

of water at all times. If the transducer is not placed in a smooth flow

of water, interference caused by bubbles and turbulence will show on

the sonar's display in the form of random lines or dots whenever the

boat is moving.

NOTE:

Some aluminum boats with strakes or ribs on the outside of the

hull create large amounts of turbulence at high speed. These boats

typically have large outboard motors capable of propelling the boat
