When replacing the transducer, you should dispose of these
four screws. New screws, washers, and O-rings are provided
in the shaft and motor hardware service kit.
3
Straighten the cables at the top of the shaft, and slowly pull
the propeller drive motor away from the shaft base until you
can see the power and data cables connected to the
propeller drive motor.
4
Holding the cables only, slowly pull them through the shaft,
taking care that the ring terminals and data cable connector
do not get caught on the top of the shaft.
NOTICE
When removing the propeller drive motor from the shaft, you
must pull the cables themselves, and not the motor. Pulling
on the propeller drive motor may damage the cable
connections inside the motor.
The power and data cables should pull through the shaft, but
the transducer cable should mostly stay in place.
Removing the Nose Cone and Transducer
Before you can remove the nose cone and transducer, you must
remove the propeller drive motor (
).
1
Carefully pull the transducer cable straight down through
the bottom of the shaft until it is completely removed from the
shaft.
2
After you pull the transducer cable out of the shaft, pull it
through the hole in the front of the shaft base , along with
the rubber cable gland and the recessed nut.
3
Dispose of the cable gland and recessed nut.
The shaft and motor hardware service kit contains a new
cable gland and recessed nut.
Disassembling the Nose Cone
Before you can disassemble the nose cone, you must remove
the skeg and nose cone from the propeller drive motor
(
Removing the Skeg and Nose Cone
).
1
Using a 3 mm hex bit or wrench, remove the six screws that
secure the transducer to the nose cone.
2
Remove the transducer and transducer pad from the nose
cone.
If you are not replacing the transducer, you should keep the
transducer pad and six screws so you can secure the
transducer to the replacement nose cone.
Replacing the Nose Cone
Before you can replace the nose cone, you must disassemble
the nose cone (
).
1
Place the transducer pad on the transducer.
2
Using a 3 mm hex bit or wrench, secure the transducer to the
nose cone using the six screws and bushings .
3
Install the nose cone and skeg on the shaft (
).
Installing the Propeller Drive Motor in the Shaft
You must perform these actions to reassemble the propeller
drive motor in the shaft.
NOTICE
The screws, replacement seals, and grease packet are included
in the motor hardware service kit (S00-01000-35). You should
use the new parts from the kit instead of reusing the screws and
seals you removed with the propeller drive motor.
1
Install the nose cone and transducer in the shaft (
the Nose Cone and Transducer in the Shaft
).
2
Install the propeller drive motor on the shaft (
).
