NSTALLATION
To install the unit on the mounting bracket:
1. Align the slot on the back of the unit with the long mounting
knob and slide into place. It may be necessary to adjust the
long knob to spread the bracket arms apart. (Turn counter-
clockwise to widen the bracket arms, clockwise to tighten.)
2. Adjust the unit angle and tighten the long mounting knob until
snug.
3. Tilt the unit by loosening the long knob on the right side of the
bracket assembly.
4. Rotate the entire bracket by twisting it left or right. ( NOTE :
You will hear clicks as you turn the bracket.)
5. Tighten all knobs when the viewing angle you want is
obtained.
Transducer Installation
Once you’ve installed the Fishfinder 160C unit, you must install the
transducer for it to function. The included transducer can be installed
on the transom (see page 7 ) or on the trolling motor (see page 9 ).
To assemble the transducer:
1. Insert the rubber washer and plastic spacer in the transducer
at the same time. DO NOT lubricate the rubber washer.
2. Route the cable toward the back and slide the transducer into
the mounting bracket.
3. Place a 5 mm flat washer on the 10-32 x 1.75" screw and
insert the screw through the mounting bracket, spacer, and
rubber washer.
4. Place the remaining 5 mm flat washer on the exposed end,
and install the 10-32 lock nut finger tight. The transducer is
tightened further after installation on the boat.
