STEP 3
Gluing the Transducer In Place
1.
All surfaces to be bonded must be smooth, clean and dry.
If the hull surface is not smooth, sand it with 30 grit
sandpaper until a smooth surface is obtained in an area a
little larger in diameter than the length of the transducer.
2.
Clean and dry both the selected area and the face of the
transducer with a weak solvent to remove any dust, grease
or oil.
3.
Prepare the adhesive as per the directions supplied with
the adhesive
(DO NOT mix the epoxy on the transducer)
.
4.
Apply a generous amount of adhesive to the entire face of
the transducer (side opposite from the cable) and the
inside of the hull.
5.
Press the transducer face onto the hull with a twisting
motion to expel all air bubbles. (If the hull is slanted,
temporarily secure the transducer in place with duct tape.)
