wrench provided. The screws are visible through the access holes on each side of the metal 
bracket. Check to make sure the transducer main body is rigidly fastened to the pivot. (See 
Figure H) 
 

 

 
Step 6 
CHECK POSITION OF TRANSDUCER- At this point, check to see that the bottom of the 
transducer is a minimum of ¼” below the bottom of the transom. (However, as noted in STEP 2, 
the top of the transducer cannot fall below the bottom of the transom). If it is not, remove the 
transducer assembly from the metal bracket by removing the pin installed during STEP 3. Loosen 
the metal bracket mounting screws, re-position the bracket utilizing it’s slotted holes, tighten and 
re-assemble. It may be necessary to replace the silicone sealant after this adjustment is made. 
 
NOTE:  It may be necessary to make several high speed runs to adjust transducer either 
UP/DOWN or to re-adjust the angle to achieve optimum results. 
 
Step 7 
CABLE CLAMPS- Install cable clamps as necessary by drilling a 1/8” dia. hole for the # 8 screw 
supplied. 
 
 
 
 
2. INSIDE HULL MOUNTING PROCEDURE           
Warning: In order to achieve proper results with this type installation, it is important that the 
transducer be mounted by someone familiar with the use of two part epoxy adhesives.  For this 
reason, Techsonic Industries, Inc. will not be responsible for any damage due to the mounting of 
your transducer in this manner.   
NOTE: An Epoxy Kit (Part N. EPK) is available from Humminbird. This Epoxy Kit has been 
formulated for Inside Hull Transducer Installation. 
 
1.  Select as flat an area as possible near the aft end and center of boat where the hull is thin 

and not double. If the bottom has a runner down the center of boat, select an area to one side 
of the runner, but as close to the runner as possible. 

2.  Clean the inside of the boat with lacquer thinner in the area transducer is to be mounted. 

Outside of boat in this area should also be cleaned. (Not with lacquer thinner). 

3.  Put approximately one inch of water in the bottom of the boat. 
4.  Put transducer in the water. The bottom of the transducer should be in a flat area and should 

be in good contact with the bottom of the boat. 

5.  Operate the LCR with the boat operating at high speed. The transducer may have to be 

moved in order to find an area where satisfactory operation is observed. 

6.  When an area is found that produces satisfactory operation, mark the location of the 

transducer.
