Operations and Maintenance Manual
WARNING: Do not expose the transducer to any solvents when cleaning any excess
sealants. Strong solvents may damage the face of the transducer.
Also, when handling the transducer, avoid lifting or pulling on the transducer cable. Although the cable
appears thick and substantial, the internal cable wiring could be damaged by stress from the sheer weight
of the transducer and cause a malfunction at the most inopportune time.
