INSTALLATION PREPARATION 

TRANSDUCER EXCHANGE 

 

TRANSDUCER EXCHANGE 

 
Other transducers are available as replacements for the standard transducer. 
You may exchange your new and unassembled transducer for another type by 
returning it to the address listed in Customer Support. Some transducers may 
have additional cost. Refer to the Accessory catalog or call Customer Support for 
information. 

 

BEGINNING INSTALLATION  

 
Now that you have determined the transducer mounting method you can begin 
installation of your new Humminbird fishfinder. The installation guide included on 
the next few pages provides detailed step by step instructions for installation of 
the control head and transducer. For transom mount transducer installations you 
will need the mounting template included with your manual. 

 

In addition to the parts included you need the following for installation and 
operation: 

 

• 

A powered hand drill and various drill bits 

• 

Philips and flat-head screwdrivers 

• 

A ruler or measuring tape 

• 

Pen or pencil 

• 

12 volt power source (your boat’s battery) 

• 

A 1-amp fuse 

• 

A fuse holder (if you are wiring directly to the boat’s battery) 

• 

Silicone sealant (for sealing drilled holes) 

• 

2-part, slow-cure epoxy (for inside the hull transducer installations)
