Installing the Batteries
Release the latch on the front of the case. Open the case and install
eight AA batteries in the battery compartment. After installing the
batteries, plug the sonar unit's power cable into the battery
compartment socket. Route the other end of the cable through the
opening under the mounting bracket and close the case.
WARNING:
Never heat the batteries over an open flame or direct hot
air onto them. A fire or explosion could result.
Portable transducer installed on boat transom.
Portable Transducer Assembly
Recommended tools for installation include a slotted screw driver and
two adjustable wrenches.
Assemble the transducer and bracket as shown in the following figure.
Attach the transducer to the bracket with the supplied hardware. Make
sure there is one washer on each side of the transducer, inside the
bracket. Slide the other washer over the end of the bolt and thread the
nut onto it.
Screw the suction cup onto the bracket using the supplied screw and flat
washer. Tie the nylon cord through the hole in the top of the bracket.
When using this transducer, tie the other end of the nylon cord to the boat.
This will help prevent the loss of the transducer if it comes off the boat.
Clean the chosen area of the hull before attaching the suction cup.
Locate the transducer on the hull as shown in the following figure.
Don't allow the bracket to extend below the hull, because water
pressure against it can cause the suction cup to come off at speed.
Moisten the cup, then press it onto the hull as firmly as possible. Tie
the nylon cord to the boat and route the transducer cable to the sonar
unit. Your portable sonar is now ready for use.
