ment.
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Do not open the equipment unless
totally familiar with electrical circuits
and service manual.
Only qualified personnel are allowed to
work inside the equipment.
Turn off the power at the switchboard
before beginning the installation.
Fire or electrical shock can result if the
power is left on.
Install the transducer according to the
installation instructions.
Failure to install the transducer correctly
may result in water leakage and damage
to the ship’s hull.
Be sure no water leaks in at the
transducer mounting location.
Water leakage can sink the vessel. Also,
confirm that vibrations will not loosen the
transducer. The installer of the equipment
is solely responsible for the proper
installation of the equipment. FURUNO
will assume no responsibility for any
damage associated with improper
installation.
For wooden or FRP vessel using a
steel tank, attach a zink plate to the
hull to prevent electrolytic corrosion.
Electrolytic corrosion can, in the worst
case, result in loss of the transducer.
