4-2-2. Method to install the transducer
Below method are recommended. Please refer to each section for details.
4-2-3. Inside hull installation
4-2-4. Installation in the fish reserve
4-2-5. Installation on the transom
4-2-6. Installation on transducer (Thru-Hull)
Transducer
1/2
2/3
1/2 to 1/3 from bow
Avoid the place which has a
jut such as a drain or scupper
in front of transducer
Avoid the place where the
bottom is declined over 15
°
Avoid keel or stripe.
4-2-3. Inside hull installation
This method is easy to install. But when ultrasonic wave goes through bottom, it is
losing power. Thus, it is not suited for detecting the deep water.

Bottom of less than 10 mm (single layer)
Remove the transducer from case by
unscrewing 4 screws.

It is effective only for bottom is single layer of FRP boat (thickness: less than 10mm). (It can
not be used for sandwich structure though single layer.)
（１）
Before you glue the transducer, at the place where it is 2-10m deep moisten with
ample water not to enter the air between transducer and hull, and press the
transducer to the hull slightly. Then you find the best location to glue the
transducer which gives you the best sensitivity.
