INSTALLATION 

TRANSOM INSTALLATION

 

 

• 

If the propeller(s) is (are) forward of the transom, it may be impossible to find 
an area clear from turbulence, and a different mounting technique or 
transducer type should be considered. 

 

Step Two - Drill the Mounting Holes 

 

1.  Remove the mounting template from the front of the Operations Manual. 

 

2.  Hold the template on the transom of the boat in the location where the 

transducer will be installed (Figure 4). Align the template vertically, ensuring 
the lower edge of the transom meets with the bottom corner 
of the template. 

 

3.  Using a pencil or punch, mark the two mounting holes 

shown on the template onto the transom. Do not mark or 
drill any other holes at this time. 

 

4.  Using a 5/32” (4mm) bit drill the two holes to a depth of 

approximately 1" (3cm). On fiberglass hulls, it is best to 
start with a smaller bit and use progressively larger drill bits 
to reduce the chance of chipping or flaking the outer 
coating. 

 
Step Three - Assemble the Transducer

 

 

1.  Attach the Pivot to the transducer body as shown in Figure 

5, using the #8 – 3/8” (9mm) long allen headed pivot screw, 
the headed pin, the two flat washers, and the two toothed 
lock washers. 

 

Note: The toothed lock washers must be positioned 
between the transducer and the pivot ears. The flat 
washers must be positioned to the outside at the pivot 
ears. 

 
2.  Using the AIlen wrenches provided, loosely tighten the pivot 

screw (Figure 6). Do not completely tighten the assembly at 
this time, so the pivot angle can be adjusted later. 

 

3.  Insert the pivot/transducer assembly into the mounting 

bracket as shown in Figure 7. Do not snap the assembly 
closed.
